Knowing Michael it's probably Zbrush and Lightwave, but I'll let him do the talking. ;)

p.s. gefeliciteerd met het interview op Spinquad, verdiend! :tu:

Jason: I'll send a wire-render next time I update.. Thanx!

Anybody know a good blueprint-site other then:
http://www.The-Blueprints.com/, 'cause this 'vet' needs a ride.. A jeep or other vehicle from around 1960..

Very nice model and very good topology... I always liked this style of characters, i find them very creative. Nice job!

I like it. It's flows and got rythmn. A litte sharp round the nose but I think it works with the mouth and eyes.

Oh sweet.

Brings out the thickness of the lips. Touch of green veins would be very fleshy.

MichaelVanDenBosch, this is looking really great. care to share any of your texture painting techniques?
g.g.
03-15-07, 09:25 AM
looking good, the paint is great. I think I prefer the lighting setup from the previous render. Also, maybe it's my imagination but I had the impression from the previous render that the beret was wool and I thought it was a nice touch. This cartoon style stuff is harder than it looks because it's easy to get sidetracked by overworking the materials and stuff, that happens to me a lot. looking forward to seeing more!

Hey there Michael!

This guy's coming very nicely......ALWAYS helps when working with one of your 'famously' clean meshes, I guess :)

Any chance of a ''TOP' View to get a good look the modeling of his hands ??

Have to 'bump' g.g. 's points on mats/texture detailing - MOST valid :)

(Email you back shortly, Michael, btw .....)

cheers
