I wasn't expecting an awesome tutorial/tip to come with the update. You really captured the proportions of your character really well. When I do my retopo I'll be looking at this again.
Wish there were more shots of the hair because it looks amazing. Keep going man.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments :heart: ! :smiley:
Here 's what I have so far for Pisciasa model, I can quite say that the modeling for the girl is done, I will definitely need some more polishing here and there on the model while I am working on the texture later ( like adding more micro hair strands, facial features or clothes folds etc ) .
But yeah, time is running out so I gotta move on to the fishy next.




All the hairs are modelled raw and purely in Maya using traditional polygon modeling . I tried with Zbrush at first then I failed miserably , I can't really control the curvature and shape/ twisting sides of the hair clumps perfectly in Zbrush ( by perfect I mean to match with the concept ) these are the closest I can get, If I have more time I will come back and put more time in to detailing the hair model a bit more.


my favorite work so far, can't wait to see more!

This is looking fantastic. I wish I knew how to make amazing hair like this. I need to up my maya skills. I can't wait to see the textures on this girls. So far so good.

Yes !
This is really going to be awesome, already is =p

This is awesome, you're so far ahead

holy banana ! this is awesome !

Yes we are interested :sunglasses: :+1:
If you had a twitch, you could also stream on there as well. That's where i'm streaming an failing amazingly with my character.
When modelling some parts of this, did you start with a basic plain and use extract and other basic things like rotate, scale and move?
I'm a 3D noob so that's why i'm asking.

@phungdinhdung You're welcome ! i don't have your skill but you give me motivation for my entry :smile: !

Looks like this is going for first place. Excellent work.

8 days later

Thank you everyone for your comments ! <3

Here 's the BLockout of the fish , I am making a progress videos on how I modeled the entire fish atm so I will upload them later once I finish the whole model.

I look forward to the video. Guessing you used a lot of basic primitives. Somethings I'm a bit unsure of but this is looking good.

Final Model of the Mech Fishes for #Pisciasa ! at last after 18 hours of solid modeling, I was able to finish the fish. It 's also my first time trying to record a progress video, you can check out the speed up version of the entire modeling progress video below

some other close up renders and WIP images

alright then , Texturing is next !
