Eldritch Posted January 15, 2003 Posted January 15, 2003 Looks good, Psyk0Sith. I think you hit the nail on the head with the shape of the face/jawline. I do agree with Sinister on the eyes, though. I think they're too wide and could be just a tad taller. Just a suggestion. Keep up the good work!
Sinister12 Posted January 15, 2003 Posted January 15, 2003 Yep, I made another comparisson and I'm gonna have to agree with Matt that the tip of the nose needs to jut down a little more, making it more obvious. Despite the fact your showing us the model, too be honest it's a little tough to make an overall comparisson while it hasn't got a skin on it - that's just a point I'm making, not saying that a skin should be put on him now. But at this point in time, I still put forth my two earlier suggestions and agree with the one Matt made with the nose. This model is DEFINATELY on the right track, without question, it's making some great progress, but thing is, it's sometimes the little things that can also make a difference.
Psyk0Sith Posted January 15, 2003 Author Posted January 15, 2003 Thanks for the feedback, i'll do some changes and post more later. I think i'm pretty much done with the face details, except some adjusments of course. The reference i use for the front is not 100% straight and his head is kind of looking down, this can change the perspective and cause mistakes. But thanx to you guys i can see proportion errors and fix them. Thanx!
Sinister12 Posted January 15, 2003 Posted January 15, 2003 No problem at all. I sometimes wish I was still posting here while you were doing the model Ki-Adi Mundi to provide my 2c, that model turned out extremely well too. I like offering my 2c, in hope that it will aid in perhaps making the creator see/adjust things that will improve the model on the whole. You are doing a great job with modelling the slightly less popular Jedi Masters(and Council members).
MasterKoon237 Posted January 17, 2003 Posted January 17, 2003 not to be impolite, but any updates? Or are you still workin on Ponda?
Psyk0Sith Posted January 17, 2003 Author Posted January 17, 2003 Ponda still needs some work, like the caps and finger weights, i'll update when i have something new for Saesee.
nomad Posted January 19, 2003 Posted January 19, 2003 Looking really great PsykoSith! You really do have the face shape looking right. I would agree that the eyes might be too wide and narrow, though it does look really cool as is. I'm definitley looking forward to this one Oh, the horns might get a little too thin on your model, as opposed to how his seem to stay wider and have a bit more of a twist. Just nitpicks... I would be more than happy with the way he is... besides the blue skin -nomad MTFBWY
Psyk0Sith Posted January 20, 2003 Author Posted January 20, 2003 I'm almost done with the head, i actually sent it in-game to take a look at the smoothing and shading. I think it's fine the way it is (dont worry i've adjusted some features) I'll post a screenshot later. About 800 polys without the horns, might be a bit too much, but he's got no body yet so i'll wait to optimize more. The horns are still in the rough shape, i'll lower the polycount and make them "fatter". I dunno which outfit he should have, maybe both...plus a hood. But i'll see how it goes when i start to model. Stay tuned!
El Sitherino Posted January 20, 2003 Posted January 20, 2003 sounds good. looking forward to seeing it.
Psyk0Sith Posted January 21, 2003 Author Posted January 21, 2003 need someone to confirm this... from inbred's screenshots, it looks like the back of the head's got a seam in the middle, am i seeing things? http://www.geocities.com/inbredyokel2000/saesee2.txt
Mest Posted January 21, 2003 Posted January 21, 2003 i am not sure if it is a seam or just a line going down the back of his head.
ninja Posted January 21, 2003 Posted January 21, 2003 nah its not a seam, its just the chape of his skull. at most of the pics of this character seen face forward, you can see at the tip of his head, it parts in the middle. so its like a big butt crack in the back of his head. lol
kenad Posted January 21, 2003 Posted January 21, 2003 I'd call it a seam. Define seam There is definitely a small dip running down it. Is that a seam?
Psyk0Sith Posted January 26, 2003 Author Posted January 26, 2003 I've been quite busy this week, so i had no time to update the model... Yesterday i started modelling the robe, I've only done the hood it's nothing much but i think it's coming along nicely. I'll work on the robe itself this week. I will try to add some folds this time . The hood I will probably do the other outfit too...dunno if inbred is willing to skin two outfits, i could ask marz to help out when his Zam model is completed. Oh by the way, i did add a seam to the head.
Dark Jawa Posted January 26, 2003 Posted January 26, 2003 looks very good PsykoSith keep up the good work !!!!
inbredyokel Posted January 26, 2003 Posted January 26, 2003 The hood looks very nice...and I don't mind skinning 2 models if you don't mind modeling them
MasterKoon237 Posted January 26, 2003 Posted January 26, 2003 That looks real sweet(even though it is just a hood)! Like "Dark Jawa" said "keep up the good work!"
Sinister12 Posted January 27, 2003 Posted January 27, 2003 Looks awesome Psyk0sith. Keep up the good work!
Psyk0Sith Posted February 1, 2003 Author Posted February 1, 2003 I started to model the non-robed version because i wasnt too satistified with the results of the robe...it's kinda difficult to make good looking folds. anyways here's the non-robed version in-progress and improved head. http://www3.sympatico.ca/psykopat/pics/saesee/update02.jpg
Dragonlancer Posted February 1, 2003 Posted February 1, 2003 Looks awsome man, nice to see updates. Can't wait to play with him!
inbredyokel Posted February 1, 2003 Posted February 1, 2003 Looking good, although I think it could lose a few few folds all around (to make it look less dress-like ) From the pictures it looks like the material down there is pretty rigid. Also, upon looking at aotc and seeing saesee in action, it appears that the tabbards go all the way down on both the front and back, and there is a slit going all the way up to his waist on the right side that kind of overlaps a little in the front. Perhaps this will better illustrate... http://www.geocities.com/inbredyokel2000/saeseeshots.txt His face looks kinda wide too, but it just might be the angle. You can see in these shots from both movies though that he does have a very square jaw and narrow face.

Khier Posted February 1, 2003 Posted February 1, 2003 Hey this model is looking mighty fine, good job, Psyk0! The hood looks pretty good too, but will you be making one that goes on over his head? Again very nice job
