Can't wait to be done and work on my own demo reel Cato exluded. So yeah I am just about to unwrap the props to go with the model (Katana, sandels, Hair and hat) so that will be done tonight I would also like to have them textured tonight so that I can start making pedistals tomorrow. Then render later this week. Hazaa Lets hope I don't fail the demo reel ( they want 4 models but I think 3 is better with how crappy the 4th is) ANYWHO off I go.

Let down

Just a sorry to anyone I have been letting down with this modeling career I am trying to achieve ... I been slacking rediculously and having a wedding and child on the way doesn't help. I need to start busting my balls and getting my models done to make a demo reel. I sure as hell don't want to have wasted 30k for Tuition. Anyways. Hopefully this post will be bumped down by some model progression real soon. Thanks.

Onnu-Musha (Female Samurai) Wip 3

Alright well I haven't alot to SHOW on the model but I have had to figure out a couple Zbrush features to get to this stage, those being transpose tool and subtools My o may are they powerful and awesome tools. Anyways here is the roughing in of the clothing I haven't sculpted it at all yet because I have maya homework to do tonight. Also the pose is going to look awkward she is going to have a Katana thrown over there. Please any critique or reference referal for some wrinkles would be sweet... Thanks Yay Bronze Shader FTW !

Onnu-Musha (Female Samurai) Wip 2

Finally opened the files since my break ended.....
I had some tweaks that were needed thanks to some crit offered by some instructors and mentors. So I fixed some proportions, and some minor details. I want to detail it more but I really need to get moving on this model so what I don't do now with this model I will be sure to take more time with on my next models. I have decided on clothing for this character aswell I will start that hopefully tonight or tomorrow (depending on how fast I work on my maya homework). Anyways here are the screens. Please Critique is always welcomed and VERY helpful. (click for larger image)
