nickz - thanks Nick! Glad you dig it!

tsabszy - thanks so much!!

_Orb - haha thanks man I’m so glad you and your girlfriend are playing and enjoying it. It’s so funny that you commented on the environment stuff because we were just admiring your thread the other day with all the amazing env stuff. Paul Slusser did most of the work on the OMD environments and you can view his thread here: http://www.zbrushcentral.com/showthread.php?100625-SpankyAce-Sketchbook

sketchguy - Thanks Steve! Yes I’m using 3DSmax to render the textured game res models and the ones that are gray are renders in zbrush of the high poly.

Grimngor - Thanks so much! The average polycount size is around 6000 tris. The orcs ranged from 2800 to 5000 tris, depending on how much gear they have on. The main character was a little over 8000 tris I believe

I enjoyed the game more than most anything I’ve played in the last few years, and I think a lot of that had to do with the feel & artistic style throughout. I know that a lot of factors - from color choices to the animation style - contributed to that visual satisfaction. I’m still trying to figure out exactly how you did it! :wink:

I’m addicted to wireframes, so I’d be such a happy camper if you had any to post. But thanks for these, they’re reminding me I have some DLC to dive back into. =)

#323

Wonderful work! I love seeing expressiveness in game characters, and these guys have it in spades. Looks like it was a lot of fun to work on!

#324

So awesome

#325

Great work: crisp & clean cartoonish style. One pin, if I can: the chignon of the witch, I see, it is a two-halves specularized, so one half enters back into its specular, and with an angulation which further underlines the problem. Perhaps you may solv the “issue” with setting the brush in order that one end enters below the other, like a slant chevron or a tire pattern. Keep the good work.

#326

Great work!!! I loved the characters and the colors! Amazing, and the old guy seems like gandalf in the Zbrush version hahaa. :+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:

#327

Super awesome work, Chris, thanks for sharing! I always love your stuff. Keep it up! :slight_smile:

#328

Amazing work!:smiley:

#329

Aamezing work …keep it up…

#330

So much fun! Gee! You love doing these! It’s obvious! Your designs show great simplicity and solid styling! Thanks for sharing!

#331

Great stuff.

#332

I’m curious, what did the basemeshes look like before you sculpted them in zbrush. were they modelled with edge loops in mind or did you just go create something real simple and just sculpted away until you matched the desired look?

Thanks.

#333

kalero - I’m so glad to hear it! I think you’ll enjoy the sequel even more. We’re adding a TON of new content and our biggest addition, co-op, makes it that much better. I’ll try and get some wireframes up soon. :slight_smile:

midost - Thank you Margaret! Yes it was a blast to work on and the sequel is even better! :smiley:

vicentenog - thanks a lot!

Marsw - Thanks! I’m not sure I understand what you mean in your comment about the chignon. Are you talking about the direction the braid twists?

VictorHD - Thanks Victor! Haha yeah, gandalf was a big inspiration for this guy I believe. He was concepted by Nate Stefan

MoP - Thanks Mop! same to you, man!

logansan25 - Thanks a lot! :slight_smile:

creative-poly - Thanks!

willbrown1 - Thanks Will!

Likesyrup - Thanks!

selahpoetic - my base meshes are pretty basic I just make sure the density of the polys are the same size throughout each mesh and I try to have nice, even edgeloops flowing the same direction I plan to sculpt detail like skin folds or cloth wrinkles.

#334

Nice work,

I like the simplicity. It’s fun.
My favorite is the Sorceress

#337

jmenna - Thanks Joe! That means a lot coming from you, man.

ZKULPTOR - Thanks Erick! Same to you dude! BTW, I’m SOOOOOO jealous of you and that fancy pants 3D printer you got. That is the ultimate toy. Can’t wait to see what you output with it. :smiley:
