Here's the update on the simian. I thought about his armour and found the less he has the more confidant he looked. These are just proxy for now. Let me know what you guys think please? Hope you like it. Also the texture isn't done.
Crits and comments are welcomed!

Oh by the way. If any one knows why the colour on my model turns black when I try convert it to texture, it would be a big help. Thanks!

look amazing man. the anatomy is great and the detail is great in the upper body. i know you said the texture is in progress but will you be adding fine detail to the legs? i think if you fixed up the boots a bit, detailed out his hear and finished the texture this would a killer piece. also if you could, i would love to see the base model you used.

I have the same problem with mine... I think it is because the uv was already unwrap but im not sure... when I try with an object who dont have preassigne uv it works very well...

Why isn't this top row? Excellent!

[brettSinclair]

Hey thanks guys.

godlyzombie: Thanks. I'm waiting to get my new pc. my 5 year old pc is crying. Haha. Once I have my bad ass quad pc I'll get back to the fine details.

YsenGrin: damn. This problem is really slowing things down. hmmm. I've tried auv and it still goes freakin black.

willbrown1: Thanks bud!!! Ye I'm afraid I can't answer that one. But thanks anyway!

Here is the base meshes for both simian and bravestarr.

Hey nice work there..really nice posture n anatomy..keep it up.

I went thru the same problem of "TEXTURE BLACKOUT" but i got it fixed too...herez how:-
after u've finished with ur polypainting (with "enable uvs" option off) go to the minimum subdivision level and hit AUV or GUV tiles for uvs (NOTE: you cud also import an obj with unfolded uvs at this stage which will tranfer tht uv set on this model!). Now go to texture and set up texture resolution (2048x2048 works well for me..) and now hit the col>texture button and WOLA!!!!! u'll have wat u want...
rembr..if u wanna tweak ur texture again u gotta disable "enable uvs" and switch off ur texure..and repeat the whole process when u wanna capture the details back on to a texture.

[brettSinclair]

Sweet! Thanks dude. I'll be sure to try that out.

very nice modeling...the only problem is the armor and texture...render your model without these...

[Teyon]

I like the armor and texture...well, maybe not the boots so much but the rest for sure. I need to practice those kind of things and this is just pure inspiration for me! LOVE IT! Keep going.

Edit:

had to come back and say I really really like that model. Is he toasting or back-handing someone?

[godlyzombie]

brett you're awesome. thank you so much for posting the lows they are great. quick question about them though i was noticing you have 2 sets of 3 loops on the toes for deformation i assume, but on your hands there are just 3 sections total why is this? Planning some sick toe animations in the future?

[brettSinclair]

thanks guys.

skulll_monster: The armour and texture are temp. It still needs the zbrush touch. I plan on giving him scar tattoos. If that makes sense? So hopefully I can change your mind.

Teyon: The boots haven't been worked on at all. Hahaha!! A friend of mine said i should give him a bathrob and a cup of coffee along with the morning paper under his arm. But seriously. I guess I liked the pose. I think it makes him look proud and strong.

godlyzombie: Thanks bud! Ye I left those dang loops out on my bravestarr model. DOH! luckily I can retopo his ass later. Hmmmmm

Thanks for the comments everyone!

Hey Nick. Thanks for popping in

I find the muscles of leg (from the front) quite odd.
The rest looks fine!
