[Stonecutter]

Great start Michael...Some fine modelling...

It looks a bit like the style ETA uses, and THAT is a compliment... ;)

:cool: :tu: :tu: :tu: :cool:

[ztevie-rae]

You sound ,as if you've been sweating blood,
moulding this fella Micheal. :D
It was time well spent .As fine a vampire as I've seen in a long time ! :cool: :tu:

Stevie_rae.

[ed_the_atom]

Well done.....and that was done in the demo?

[Mahlikus The Black]

Stonecutter - Thank you very much for that. Though I don't know who or what ETA is.

Ztevie- Not sweating blood but I sure am hurtin!..I use a mouse so my palm is KILLING ME! Thank you as well.

Ed - Sure is..I have been on it for hours.
This thing is awesome but when you start taking advantage of markers and layers... :D

Thank you all for the great compliments.
This version isn't resized and cropped in PS.
Here are some eyes, mats , and lighting...

Edited the above image...The teeth were getting on my nerves so I had to change it...What do you all think?
Some 121 please?

[ed_the_atom]

If you used different models to work off you might get a better variety in your work.

[Mahlikus The Black]

I did't work off of any imported model...sorry man. I made him and the others from scratch using a 3D Sphere. I guess you can say you see a likeness in style.
I needed a break from drac and his teeth because ZBrush kept crashing (Thank Ofer for markers and layers!)... so I started modeling this guy. He is what I have been messing around with for the past ahh..like 2 hours.

Too bad I am going to bed and can't finish modeling him how i would like.

[ed_the_atom]

Well you certainly are a remarkable modeller then, the similarities in at least four of your models are outstanding to say the least. :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:
I can't wait to see the next of the bunch...onward onward...

[Mahlikus The Black]

Its cool..see I also made this for those who would like to see the process...I had to optimize the export and make a web pic right now and I am half asleep but here it is.

The one you couldn't finish......which is a pity....is great, has life even unfinished. Personally I think it has a more professional feel about it than the others...

All the best with your 3d contest....good image in there by the way. If you win...then you might be able to get some well earned sleep.

[Mahlikus The Black]

Well thank you man, I hope so too. I don't keep my hopes up though...you know 'hope for the best...anticipate the worst...so one isn't as unprepared'.
So if not, then its time to save up again. I love staying up to 4:30 in the mornings playing around...but yeah...if i had the ability to save tools, texts, and alphas then I would get tons more sleep...
;) BTW - I remember how I made that professional looking fella and redoing the general structure of his face won't be hard ;) I tried a villians aproach to his head!

[Rafael Hernandez]

You always manage to give your heads a lot of characters. Nice work! Especially working within the limitations of the demo. It's your name Michael Angelo Hernandez? Because if it is we just need a Leonardo Hernandez to have the full set ( of great artists not ninja turtles).

[Mahlikus The Black]

yeah it actually is.
I saw your name and said YEAH. Not to many Hernandez around save here in Texas..hehe
Thats funny..I always liked the purple Ninja Turtle too...

[Northstarr]

Woah! I almost missed this one! Great modelling for sure! I was a bit surprised to see blue eyes, don't know why but I was expecting red. I like the blue, gives him a steely unfeeling look! And the teeth look great to me.

:D

[Rafael Hernandez]

That's interesting. I wonder if the name your parents give you affects your interests in the long run. I'll never name one of my kids Judas just in case. Actually Hernandez are quite numerous, almost as numerous as Perez. Just check the Phone directory. But I know what you mean, not many hispanics in this forum. The only one I know of (besides you) is Juandel.

[Vikki]

Very nice modeling. He sure does have character! :D

:tu: :tu: :tu:

[Mahlikus The Black]

Here is the next add-on. This has changed my outlook on what to make him wear.
