Hindy Posted May 8, 2003 Author Posted May 8, 2003 Kerocool: If you mean skinning, well... Body (torso, hips, arms, legs & hands) 90% finished, gotta whack skin texture on hands and tweak the body. By adding a few more creases here and there and sorting the contrast. Head is probably 50%, the face is getting there. The face has some things I wanna change ( i ll post pics soon). I ve gotta reunwrap the hair as i did it half arsed, wont take long. Then texture hair... been experimenting with hair sort of got a technique now. I want to finish skinning tomorrow *Hindy sets himself a strict deadline!*
Hindy Posted May 8, 2003 Author Posted May 8, 2003 Here are some head WIP skins. I mentioned in previous post Im gonna re-unwrap the hair cos it looked cack from the front but spot on from the side. Legolas1 Legolas2 I need to tone down the lips, maybe make slightly bigger. Tweak the brows as they appear too ridged and redo the hair. Is it me or does he look a tad sad? Let me know what you think Cheers

Hindy Posted May 10, 2003 Author Posted May 10, 2003 Ok im finished skinnind for now anyway... I have to finish this by next wed at the latest so Im gonna get it in game then reskin it. Well here it is Legolas01 Legolas02 Ignore the colour differences and seams thats just where the model is segmented. *Where im at now, weighting the mesh with just the torso and head to go*
Hindy Posted May 10, 2003 Author Posted May 10, 2003 Ok what I m gonna redo or keep... Im pleased with (therefore keeping)... Boots, Legs, Wrist things, Face (although may work into more), Embroidery (took ages drawing, but its worth it) and Arms. What i will reskin.... Hair ( it has detail but the tones r too close 2 each other) Tunic (Looks to flat coloured) Body (Same as above) Quiver (gotta add embroidery but may be left out all together) Clean up seams...
Dante Alastor Posted May 10, 2003 Posted May 10, 2003 allright!!!! just take your time hindy, because you know what your doing, and if you pay attention to what your doing, this model will go from being awsome to extravagent!!!
Hindy Posted May 13, 2003 Author Posted May 13, 2003 Ok a little update. I successfully compiled my Legolas.glm last night and at present I am attemting to get the skins on him. PsykOSith is also having a go for me in case I couldn't do it. So it shouldn't be too long now
Hindy Posted May 13, 2003 Author Posted May 13, 2003 Ok I got the skins on the model and its plain to see where they could be improved! I have some issues with clipping and a floating hand so I have a thread on General Editing in which I have some questions regarding the problems. It has some pics too!!!! thread
Hindy Posted May 15, 2003 Author Posted May 15, 2003 Ok boys & girls... I couldn't access the forum earlier, which was a pain as I wanted to tell ya its more or less finished. I ve been playing with it all afternoon! Marveling at my creation... I even reskinned him last night and this morn, want some pics? Here you go... Reskin01 Reskin02 *Note since this morn I have also adjusted the skin tone, so its not so yellow*
Dante Alastor Posted May 15, 2003 Posted May 15, 2003 omg!!!!! i cant believe that you can take an allready awsome model, and make it even better!!! this is a supreme job, i cant wait until you release it!!!
Hindy Posted May 15, 2003 Author Posted May 15, 2003 Ok peeps, I just submitted the file to JK2 files so it should be available soon. In the meantime here is a screen of Legolas in helms deep to wet your appetite. Screen Please forgive the low quality jpeg. So as far as im concerned its released... Im gonna have a break now Bye
SettingShadow Posted May 15, 2003 Posted May 15, 2003 Looks great, Hindy. Very good likeness, and I love the skin. What more can I say...
Hindy Posted May 16, 2003 Author Posted May 16, 2003 Thanx to everyone who has been interested in this thread as it has kept me motivated over the past weeks. Also I want like to thank PsykOSith for all his and support over on general editing when I ran in troubles. Overall this project has ran pretty smoothly and 3ds max was surprisingly easy to get to grips with. Where does Hindy go from here? I hear u ask (or maybe not!)... Well i hope to start my new project on 22/05, Im torn between making LOTR TTT Gollum or Futurama Bender. I really got the urge to model Bender last week when I was watchin Futurama
Aalya Posted May 20, 2003 Posted May 20, 2003 JK II needs a good Lord of the Rings model. Way to go picking Legalos. Bow would be cool but difficult.
