Somebody showed me how to upload my full resolution on photobucket.

The problem now is this website doesn’t accept the link because of the “original” at the end of the link:

Thanks

Update! Almost done with the modeling.

I still don’t know how to post these links as images. The “original” at the end of the link gives me an error… Any idea?

Here’s another update. I’m almost done with the modeling of the high res. I’ll make a low res later.

Awesome detail !

Thanks gkhnaltay!

I’m done with the low res and I generated the normal and AO. With the hair/eyes/teeth I’m just above 13 000 tris. With the previous sword and shield I should be at 14 000 tris.

There! I used Ddo and I’m sold. I want to use it on every project!

I still have to tweak some textures and add the shield and sword. I might have to redo the sword so it fits the design.

This is rendered in Marmoset toolbag.

The model turned out great! love it. The Ddo textures look awesome. Was looking to use Ddo in near future for some low poly work, nice to see some results. :slight_smile:

Amazing!

Thanks Mr.Spooky! Ddo is definitely something I will buy once I get a job. It’s only 99$ for the non-commercial version. The only negative thing I have to say is it can create problems at the seams depending on the effects you use.

Thank you MattSkinny!

I’ve made some changes in the colors but I think it’s now to dark. I’ll try getting the shirt’s leather and the pants to be more pale.

awesome clothing detailing! agreed about lowering the contrast for the leather parts :sunglasses:small_orange_diamond:+1:

Thanks digitalmind! The clothing was done with marvelous designer. It’s a software made to create cloth with simulations. Also, I want more brightness and more contrast as opposed to less.

I would be careful relying too heavily on marvelous designer. I’ve seen several people use that and the folds have a distinct “look.” It’s probably a good place to start but then I would use good ole reference and just sculpt some of it give your own flavor. Even though it’s based on realistic physics, to me, it just doesn’t look as good as when an artist sculpts it well. Also, a lot of your dirt is reading as vertical streaks which starts to look like texture stretching almost. May want to splotch or splatter it on to break that up. The hair looks odd to me but I’m guessing its WIP. Still, great job so far on this character.

sarakawa - My goal when creating cloth, specially when working on personal projects, is to end up with a model that looks like it was 3D scanned. As much as I can model cloth in zbrush like I’ve often done and still do, some time it’s more logical to use physic simulations to get the best possible result.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t just add a piece of cloth and press simulate and say “There, I’m done with it!”. I actually do a lot of work in Marvelous Designer in order to get the result I want. I re-ajust the pattern many times and pull on the cloth to get folds where I need them. If you think about it, it’s sort of sculpting but with physics. I still get to add my “own flavor” without overdoing it which could make it look more artistic than realistic. Once I’m done in MD I get into zbrush to adjust the different parts, smooth what’s too drastic and exaggerate the parts that are too smooth to my taste. After that I add bump maps to make all the little details of the fabric.

The vertical mud marks are made to look like it was dripping down and dried up. I’ll go back to make it less regular. I’ll also change the specular of the hair to give it more contrasted highlights and also add dirt marks because it’s way too clean right now.

Here’s where I’m at. I reduced the face spec, Made a lot more color variations and added dirt to the hair. I also changed the eye color.

The model looking good! Its on the right track, however i feel a little uncomfortable on the Texture side. Notice theres two ‘‘leaking’’ texture lines near the forehead, you might wanna break that off. Otherwise keep going, good work mate! :smiley:

Thanks lt_ken84! Somebody else had told me a similar comment. I removed the dirt from the forehead.


Here’s another update. I still have some tweaking to do with the pose/textures and I’ll probably add in another plant.

That’s looking much more pleasant, more Heroine feel now! Well its just tips if you’re hoping to get better look on the texture is that the contact point of the Boots and the Rocks, you might wanna ‘‘weather’’ or ‘‘dirty’’ those areas to make it look like its natural. And some parts of the weapons can have a little bit more rust. Thats just on the texture side. Keep on building your character to make it stand out. :wink:
