megaman again

I finally can start again my character from scratch, Here is my megaman base mesh :S

Smmmmoooth

Hi All,

Here are some of the latest revisions:

As suggested by ppl, I re-posed him into a more upright, less spine breaking and a proper balanced fighting position, rather than trying to match the original art exactly. BUUUUUUT, Having looked at both poses.. which is cooler? In retrospect the original pose does look more aggressive having the weight placed more forward and on the front foot... Suggestions????? Help! :P

I smoothed out his pant wrinkles and started on sculpting muscle tone (MedRez). I'm happy with the scarf shape and flow and will leave it as is, until the HiRez detailing

To be done:
-Finish detailing rear foot and lower leg
-Add muscle and detailing to hands
-Move onto detailing accessories

Keep on, keeping on everyone :)

Hey all!

Hey guys! I apologize for being absent from the blog so far. This last month has been crazy busy for me. I have some spare time now so I'm going to try to get caught up. The character I'm going to do is Earthworm Jim which has long been my favorite character of the 16 bit generation. I honestly don't feel like updating him so I'm just going to model him as is.

Fabric Reference

Hey Groupers,

Here is the fabric reference I used. This may explain better than I can. :)

Thx :)

MedRez-Blowing in the wind

Hello fellow Groupers :)

-add lower leg wraps

-more wrinkles on rear of scarf (1st scarf)

More Edgar

i started making the body and ended up as something else

if you think theres somethin i can rescue from the model let me now please :)

Zbrush-Appending, detailing lv.1

Hey Everyone!

Here is a progress shot from Zbrush. I've started mid-level detailing on the mask and low level detailing on the body. To be done ... finger posing, trailing scarf detailing, mid-level body,legs and face and adding muscletone on the arms

Does anyone know how to make the backfaces of polys show up in Zbrush?

Cheers! :)

UVs done, Action Pose Started

Hello Groupers,

Been workin on the model. Check it out... posing has started...arms, hand positions and clothing to be tweeked. Any suggestions on the leg position? In the 2D Image the legs are a bit wider, but the perspective is also forced and body proportions are distorted.. should this be done with the model or should I just tweek the camera lens length in the final render? I'm leaning toward the camera adjustment... ;)

Tweaked the boots a little. I tried adding armor to the shins and knees, but it wasn't working out. Maybe I'll try again later. I also added the Jason mask that he uses when he scores a critical hit and made the drill holster bigger.

G.O.A.

Hello fellow Groupers, :P





i was bored...

Anyway, here are some WIP screenshots... ongoing. Some quick adjustments for the low rez cage b4 Zbrush... Cheers.. keep pushin ppl :) Just keep in mind yes he doesnt exactly match the reference image but im not trying to.. :P buuuuut i did adjust his lips as suggested :)

Mega Fail!

Edgar Concept

Here's what I have so far for the concept. Don't really know what to do for the colours. Should I stick with the sprite's blue, green and gold??

megaman in the sky with diamonds!!

hi So this is my concept I hope somebody can give me some constructive critics, and also I hope you guys like it



also a shot of my base mesh!!

comment please!! :D

push, pull, tweek, tweek, BLLLLOOOOOOOOG

Hello fellow Groupers of Awesomeness

BTW the above fish is a Grouper... if ya didn't know :P

Here are a couple of WIP screenshots for Strider Hiryu...
These are reference images that I think resemble the character's design, although the 3/4 and side images aren't the same male model, they were used just for proportional references...

Suggestions, Critiques? pls and thx :)
