inbredyokel Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 Hmm..I think I see what your problem might be. From the side view, it looks like the organization of the tentacles is a little off. From here http://www.sgtfretsurfer.com/Grilled-Sarlacc/c/kitfisto/kitfisto.jpg You can see that the topmost tentacles are actually angled down the most, and the lower tentacles come back to wrap around them. Otherwise, I think the "offness" of the head could be corrected by lowering the head slightly(he has a pretty stubby neck), widening the face a little and bringing out the lower pair of tentacles coming out of his jawline a bit more to give his head an arc shape when viewed from the front.

nomad Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 Damn! The force is strong with this one. Nice progress Toonces. Heh, I couldn't believe it when I saw your avatar The problem I see with the head is that it looked too thin from the front. I realized that it may be due to the fact that Kit Fisto's tentacles kind of start, and buldge out, on the sides of his face. Right on his cheekbones (that line that I think you mentioned) is a ridge that starts and becomes one of his thick tentacles. From the side your model looks almost perfect, but from the front I think the main difference is where your tentacles begin too far back on his head. Hope that helps.

Master Bodle Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 The head looks just fine. Everyone keeps mentioning it and everyone seems to have different ideas of how it should be. Must be confusing for u Toonces. And like u said u don't have enough poly's to work with. If u can't make any better for the head don't worry. It looks Superb!! I doubt anyone else would be able to make it anywhere near as good anyway !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
"thA dekMan" Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 lookin great man, and I must say u really got the eyes down pack. I think thats one of kits biggest "identifying features" and u got em down nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adillon Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Originally posted by Toonces the hands do look a little small. They are the Raven SDK ones. I was planning on modeling some custom ones i hope you really do model custom hands. not that they're something you'd see a whole helluva lot of in-game ... it's just those LITTLE changes can make an incredible model just that much better. the link inbred posted here shows off his hands pretty well. having them as small as they are right now makes the rest of him seem too big. just my 2 cents ... keep up the great work, toonces!!

Toonces Posted August 13, 2002 Author Share Posted August 13, 2002 heh, thanks guys being a perfectionist is a real detriment sometimes, but at the end of the day it makes me a better artist adillon, I made the hands signifigantly larger. They did look a little wierd before, and Kit Fisto seems like a pretty tall guy, and upon watching his fighting scenes they are pretty damn big (and pointy too ) I've been tweaking the head alot over the past couple days. I rebuilt the sides of the head and modeled thoes suttle bumps that connect the tenticles to the chin and the eyes. I have to shape the face a little more now. I'll post an update soon, I'm just taking a day or two off from Kit (yeah right, I'll cave in I know it ) Toonces http://www.drivingcatstudios.com Powered by Sith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Lazarus Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 Kit Fisto, at last! Looks great Toonces! I was wondering though... are you planning to put the eyes in? He does actually have eyes in that dark area. Not a big deal, but just wondering. Looks like he is coming along nicely! Can't wait to play him!

Master Bodle Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Well he can't really have any speech because we never actually hear him speak in the film. Don't know wot other sounds u could get. Maybe that time he laughs thats bout the only time we hear him make any sounds. I want a Kit Fisto smilies !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonces Posted August 18, 2002 Author Share Posted August 18, 2002 heh, that would be a little TOO funny I haven't touched him in a few days, I needed to take a break from those tenticles. I've been working on a slightly diffrent charecter, it's a origional charecter, might not be for JO, or anything. I'm gonna work on Kit Fisto tommorow, updates soon edit: Love the new avatar GraFox Toonces http://www.drivingcatstudios.com Powered by Sith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
