Pft, maul is weak compared to dooku. No way maul could stand ground against yoda like dooku did, even though dooku got beat pretty bad by yoda, he was able to hold ground against the lightning struggle. So anyways, great job guys, heh, maybe a kit fisto model next? Who knows! ;)

Alaris- I put a shader on the boots. It is a very toned down env map. There is also a bit of this on the belt area, but in considerable less quantity.

 

Yes, the hands are pretty bad, I haven't done much on them till that point. Only put in the basic parts (knuckles, tendons, nails, creases and then the tones. Still have to hage those as well.

 

And about the chest area, I've been fighting with it deciding on how I want it. Still haven't decided yet.

take your time. i'd rather prefer a good skin than a fast-finished skin.

as for the chest. a little less muscles, but it wasn't really bad!

and could you put lesser creases on the stomach, then he would look a little "fatter" because his cloth arent too large any more.

still, fantastic work!!!!!!!

Kman---thanks for your reply. I will have to try that shaders effect. I think I saw a tutorial on it. Chest and hands look great already. I still can't figure out how you got the beard and hair to look so good. I am a beginner modeler, but I have innate artistic talent. I enjoy drawing caricatures of people, so 3d modeling real people has great appeal to me. Dream job would be to be a 3d modeler for some game company but that fantasy stretches thin with the likes of you in competition.

 

I'm working on a model right now that looks pretty good for a first model. Where did you learn to skin like that? Do you use any special tools like that pen and pad thingy? Your website looks good btw. check mine out (still needs optimized and doesn't have my model on it--yet)--

The 'shine' or overall brightness in the pics is because I turned the ambient lighting up to about 50%. That and the lights I have on are washing out some of the picture. I'll try to fix this. I'll maybe even post a pic of the flat.

 

Alaris- Yeah, I use a tablet. I would recommend you get one. You have some good line work and that will make a world of difference. Although you need to work on your colors. Try taking some of those inked pics and use Paintshop Pro or whatever you use and try getting some cg work done on those. Although I would highly recommend getting Photoshop. It is just better than PSP. I should know. I've used that to do skins since v3 or 4.

masterofmayhem,

there is a Very nice looking emperor being made by Toonces. There's a thread on these boards for it. It's coming along, and hopefully will be out not far apart from this Dooku.

 

Can't wait for this one! Looking real good.

Good luck getting it in game.

 

Let's see, The Emperor, Darth Maul, Lord Tyranus, Darth Vader

vs.

Luke... wow, we need some Jedi to adjust the balance.

Of course there are some jedi WIP just as Dooku and The Emperor. So I guess it may be balanced by then. Right now, lots of jedi skins but few models.

so, nothing new about dooku to report.

 

i have been busy lately, so there are no updates at the moment.

 

so, this more or less just an ordinary bump.

 

edit: alot of "so" in the post, so please don't post about my bad english.

kman, the skin is looking incredible. glad to hear you don't think there's much else to add or change. it might just be me, or maybe the image is really dark, but is his cape brown on both sides? as far as i can tell it looks like only the inner lining is brown.

 

i don't know if this can really help you at this point, but go to the lucasarts 20th annniversary page that features some [understatement]really cool[/understatement] 3d models from various lucasarts games - http://www.lucasarts.com/20th/3dgallery/. dooku is there, and you can spin him around (whee!) and zoom in on him (not so close!). maybe it can show you some things you may have missed, although from the looks of your *BLEEP* incredible skin, i doubt it.

 

great work! ROCK ON!

Yeah, thats where I changed the colors from. I thought that his upper clothing was a bit earthy, couldn't tell from all the pictures. But I did turn the saturation on the cape lining down a bit. I'll adjust it so it is less similar.
