Mortal Kombat- Smoke

This is my latest personal work based on my Favorite Game character as a child, Smoke From Mortal Kombat.
I designed him in Max as I was modeling, Later taking him into zbrush to refine all the Surface.
Pretty much 95% of the final rendered Geometry was using highres decimated geometry (Best freaking plugin ever) and it was LOWER Resolution than using 2 smooths on everything. Crazy.
All the texturing, Sculpting and polypainting for the Shader Blend maps was done in Zbrush 3.

Very nice work. I like all of the hard surface details worked into the mesh. You said this was completely textured in Z brush I would love to see some examples of how you painted the metal. Was this rendered in max or Zbrush? The smoke looks like a fluid effect from Maya? :wink: It would be cool to see an animation of this guy. Great work!

Absolutely love this piece! Could you share some WIP’s??

wow~~awesome!!!:+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:

damn dude! this is kickass. You did him justice :+1:

awesomeee!!!
the sword close up is impressive dude.

Congrats

Flawless Victory!!!

man thats some bad as* character. i think i saw him before on cgsociety.
i was stunned. you’ll get your 5 stars now. maybe you’ll get a toprow later :wink: keep it up.

5 *s from me as well… I don’t know what it is about taking videogame characters or anime or comics or whatever and making them as realistic as possible, but it’s super cool. Not to menton your take on smoke is AWESOME(in hairband singer voice)!!

Freggin awesome work! I love the armor. This deserves top row me thinks.
Any plans on doing any other characters?
Some WIP shots would be very interesting to see.

Nice work, i love it.

But i think the geo of his cloth is crashing into his metal ab plate thinger in your beauty shot. Other than that i think its top row stuff.

Nice work, loving the textures.

Wow. You’re gonna have to post some WIP shots for this now. :lol:

Geez!!! absolutely awesome!one of my favorite games! this is top row work! :+1:

This is incredible. I love the depth of field and armor. Fantastic model, Top row for sure! Im trying to figure out your lighting set up though, are u using HDRI’s or just a Max lighting set up? The shading is so even I love it!

siiiick! this is really well done, dude.

A well deserved plug.Great work,congrats dude!

The sword details are sick
