His hips are too slim compared to his breast and shoulders; his legs are too spindly.

Compared to his head, his feet look like women's feet. Too small as well.

Especially when I look at the intended(?) heaviness and muscularity of his upper body, his lower body should also be massive. He looks like He-Man on the legs of a 15 year old. Top heavy. His back isn't solid enough compared to his chest etc. as well.

Somehow he reminds me of Sonny from I, Robot. Maybe it's the skinny look on him.


Well, I'm about done on my sculpting for this character...

That looks pretty good ceriux.

Maybe angle his feet slightly outward; no human has totally parallel feet when standing.

Concerning his hair, the ponytail could have more volume. Also, to make a ponytail look more 'manly' if necessary, put it slightly lower.

give him a gooch or his legs/pelvis will deform bad. Even if your character has the baggiest hammerman parachute pants in the world you still need to model a crotch loop that goes up the butt




also for the record, Felicia is the furry hater's furry. I did her for target practice
i should not be here

That sounds look good idea. I've done those crotch loops for my models ever since leileilol told me that many years ago. They also make the character's crotch look more natural.

I'm thinking the hood looks a bit small. Not too sure about the cloth choices.. The top half looks modern and the bottom half looks like a pirate. Face reminds me of Jean Claude van Damme (when he was younger).

Games follow their own laws, it's OK to do unrealistic stuff in games... Final Fantasy clothing comes to mind :)

I'm trying out ways of showing the level, will be more useful and impressive when its finished. I would like to do a flying tour of it, or a really slow walk. Shall test more when I do some more of the map.

gosh, I have witnessed about 4 or 5 people losing their game-related work to computer crashes and not having backups in the last year or so.

So that's were all the cool maps and models are going, huh.

Everybody should use SVN or something. It's even free at places like sourceforge, icculus, and a number of other sites.

The one reason for not using a version control system is laziness. And laziness is eventually punished :-/

There's a difference between PC failure and disk failure. You can probably recover it if you plug that drive into someone else's box.
Laptops tend to have different connectors though.

What's not quite so recoverable is msvc going through your source directory thinking 'hey, this .c file looks like it might be a temporary file, lets delete it'. gee, thanks ms.
Well, okay, there are undelete tools, but I'm lazy, and had committed semi-recently. svn/git/cvs is nice, mmkay?

I've never actually seen MSVC do that, funny enough...

But yeah, a good reasonably reliable source control is a nice thing to have.
