Tauren Shaman

Hey guys, this is my first post also my first character. I’ve never had time to finish my personal stuff, until now :slight_smile:
I am a huge fan of the Warcraft series so this is my tribute to it. I used 3dmax Z-brush and Photoshop.
I hope you guys enjoy it. Special thanks to Rafael Grassetti. Comments are most welcome

is it bad, my first reaction was “Ugh…Tier 8 the Ulduar set…” :smiley:

(I think my only reason for that reaction was the huge chain with a weight they had hanging from the helmet. On a Male Tauren, Male Orc, or Male Troll it looked fine because you could see the chain - on a Draenai…it went through her body…go go clipping! I don’t remember the look on female versions of the horde…I think it was around this time my guild broke up and half of them faction transferred…with all the shaman’s wearing that TIER! :mad:)

Despite my initial reaction, really good modeling and work overall…I think if I had to give a crit…it would be to maybe add some sort of texture surface to the cloth?

I also remember this set being a bit more “rocky” in color and nature…your take on it feels a bit more desaturated and pulled back.

Thanks Tegre for replying. In the beginning I did the chain in the helmet but I though this is pretty useless for the armor and it is not really nice, so instead of the chain I decided to make a beard (like the chain hehehe)
I got a closer look of the cloth detail, but your right it is impossible to see in the final picture. I’m sad because it lost so much of details in my final render.
You are right again about the color I’ll try to change that. Thank you for the tips! :smiley:

Really cool work, congrats to your personal character! He definently is a great tribute to WoW!:+1:
Great texturing and the idea is great too. What is the polycount on the lowpoly? Maybe you can share a screen of the polymesh?
Looking forward seeing more from you.
Cheers and happy sculpting,

Great work!!!

Thanks guys! KC I made this as high poly i can show you the mesh but its really high the poly count is almost 300k. Probably in a couple of weeks I’ll have another character to post here. But thanks for the comments I’m really happy now, I though nobody likes it.

You should be proud, great first character :slight_smile:

Thanks Santis, I am proud of it. i hope my next character will be better than him :smiley:
