Absolutely incredible work.

I’ve also been in the habit of rendering with Max’s default scanline renderer.

One question: For the colour renders, are these the actual ZBrush models you rendered or did you use a lower subdivision from ZBrush and then use displacement and normal maps for the finer detail? I’m also planning of doing something more high poly for a change and not just game related work.

Thanks for sharing and inspiring.

Your attention to detail is just mind blowing. Love the beer in the hand cuff! Simply amazing detail work. Everything about it is amazing. Great job!

I really like his face. Great job. Looks like you took a lot of time on the hands too, many don’t (or put something in the hand so they don’t have too) so I really noticed that right away. I’m a hands and feet person…so the only crit is there. Hands seem like they could be proportioned better if they were longer (palm and first third of fingers) and also the feet seem small (aren’t feet supposed to be the same length as the fore arms wrist to elbow?)

Damn! That is a sweet Guile model! Looks even cooler than the one from Street Fighter IV imho. Great job!

Oh wow! This is just so much awesomeness I can barely contain myself. Seems like you spend a lengthy amount of time doing research on his accessories, and I have to say, it was time well spent. Wonderful work, dude.

The hair within Zbrush was just a basic cyl that i sculpted. I probably used a lot of Lazy Mouse on it. And then i just worked to try to blend it into his scalp hair. After i got that good enough i just used it all as a guide for puting the hair sheets over hte top.

Oh, snake hook is awesome. I forget the tool sometimes. But i recall i used it to kinda spike the hair a bit (like Bart Simpson). You can use that to really rip thing around and get some spikes.

Even if your not going to really do something in zbrush or keep something its good to make a guide. I like to see as much as i can at once for relationships and proportions.

In Max: The hair sheets are more or less created independantly (off to the side of the character). There are a couple of basic squarish ones (but you can stretch them) that i used to build up on the sides and theres a couple longer ones. one with some mass and another with a curl type tip at the end. They are little sheets that i have to play around with so there isn’t a lot of visual clipping. I just distort and bend them around to follow on top of the cyl i had. The top of the hair is just a bunch of the squarish ones like i did on the side all coppied aorund. you can see a lot of duplicate stuff in there :(. cause i didn’t spend a lot of time on the top. I could have created more of them for variety but i wanted to be somewhat budget with it. I could pretty easily create a game-ready version of his hair just by optimizing whats there.

Thanks a lot for the awesome comments guys!!

I agree with that other poster - I would love to hear more about the hair sheets and such in max, because I don’t think I’ve done it that way up until this point.

Also, how many subtools do you have on this model? what’s your process in deciding which pieces need to be subtools and which can stay part of something else?

AMAZING work. Only thing I’d change is, like was mentioned, the symmetry of the veins in his arms. Sorry if you already got to that, there are a lot of pages inbetween I haven’t read.

Keep going! Great job!

Awesome sculpture man, gives Guile a gritty new look

[ashaiad]

This is a solid piece of work

How many pieces of geometry you have in there;)

[V-Rex_Freak]

this is good, i hope 3ds Max 9 could handle this.

[Marc30]

Fantastic job! I could say that material you use to model in ZBrush?

[darrenw]

Yeah agreed, Street Fighter IV would be much better if they had character modelers this skilled. Its frustrating to see artists that are unemployed and they are BETTER than the ones who are working in huge studios! This is not always the case but im sure it happens all too often.

Im loving what you did here. Excellent work. Ryu next please:D
