Sebulba Bust - Jan 16 - Updated Image with Better Eyes

[BgDM]

Well, I feel that I have done all that I need to do on this, so I consider it finished.



[edit]Eyes fixed and did some more colour corrections and adjustment in Photoshop[/edit]

Some color correction and noise added in Photo Shop. Other than that, this is a straight Blender Render.

Thanks to everyone for the comments and crits in the WIP thread.

A huge thanks goes to TorQ for providing the UV unwrap for this. Without that, this textured version would not be possible.

If anyone is interested, I can post the texture maps, (a lot smaller versions), for you to see as well. Originals are 2400x1600 resolution.

Again, thanks for looking and thnaks for all the comments.

That is just excellent, dude. Nice job all around. If I were to suggest anything, I'd say maybe make the eye more watery.

[Hippie]

Very nice, very nice indeed.

The bumpmapping and skin texture is exelent, only thing i don't like for some reason is the eyes, maybe the spec is too high, but otherwise no other crits.

[frodochild]

awesome job BgDm. this shows the some of the true potential of blender

maybe you could change that eye though, it seems wrong. :-?

[mr_bomb]

Dude I love it But yea I agree the eyes arn't quite right/

sebula is a gou'uld!!!!

sorry, had to be said. the eyes look like they have 100% emit or something...WAY to bright and high of spec on it.

[Usagi]

Great model, great texture. As if it came straight from ILM. Only the eye looks somehow strange.

[qiv]

nice char
/me would be interested in some little maps, just for seeing how its done

[paradox]

nice to see this come so far. I think you did an excellent job.

Okay, I'll see what I can do about the eyes. Will fix that tomorrow.

I'll post some low res maps for you all tomorrow as well to take a gander at.

Thanks for all the comments.

Great result! I know you were saying people weren't posting much in the other thread, but we were still watching The textures came out beautifully. About the eye, a couple of probs with is are:

* The specular highlight is much too big, and the way it's spreading looks like the eye is pointed in the centre, rather than spherical.

* Also, it doesn't seem to have much depth - it doesn't have an illusion of refraction. When light passes through an eye, it refacts through the lens on the front and spills out on the opposite side. The classic 'pixar eye' setup is a way to fake it, by letting the light pass through and hit the indented part below the surface. Hard to explain what I mean.

Eyes have always given me trouble in the past too, so I feel your pain I'd love to see some of those maps too!

I've been watching your wip for a number of days now. you really do good work. I'm very impressed. make more.

[slikdigit]

woot! nice. What's been said about the eye has been said. other then that its great. I'd like to see (someone else suggested this, too) a displacement map, mibht be cool. Other than that a+
cand you do an anim?

[@ner]

modeling and texturing ae excelent, but you realy let me down with those eyes - BgDM you can do better (my god, I sound like my mother).

[Zenitor]

looks very pro, most excellent.
just wondering what method TorQ used in the unwrapping process?
or do you have a screen shot of the uv layout
something I'm still coming to grips with %|

[Jogi]

Nice, go ahead and post at least full bumpmap, I'd like to try to mod it and see how it looks

[crimson13]

just GREAT, though I too agree about the eye, it doesn't seem to fit at all

I think the "it" is, that the pupil is much too big. The smaller the pupil, the bigger the effect of looking evil. Perhaps you could add some color (red) to the pupil.
Though it's an awesome piece of work. Very elaborated!

[Cyanid]

wow great job nice UV mapped

[BgDM]

Thanks again for all the nice replies and comments on this. I appreciate it.

I will not get to fix the eyes today as It is snowing like a buggar, I'm at home cause the rods are a bitch and the power cord for my laptop is at work. So I don't have enough battery juice to do it. Likely tomorrow.

Here is the all the image maps I used for the texturing. I also have a slight Cloud procedural texture on him as well.



Thanks again.
