Alien Noble W.I.P.

This is the sketch of an alien I’m modeling, he’s supposed to be an alien noble. Like a high ranking noble alien.

Well done but the side of the head looks funny

Excellent drawing and looking very good in the modelling phase as well.

Watch the edge loops around the eyes. You only have about 2 loops there. There should be a lot more. Beleive me, it will help with the overall flow of the mesh doing it properly.

Looking forward to updates.

I put togather a really crappy texture just to see what it would look like, any yeah I’m still working on around the eyes and have to define the mouth too thanks for comments

Ok it’s been the wierdest day, Todays my day off and I’ve been suckin on the same bottle of “Jack” all day. I started listening to my Shinedown cd this morning, listened to it probably 5 times, then I switched to my Loreena Mckennit cd (wierd combo huh), and I’ve been modeling all day, and to end the day the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind came on so I watched that while modeling. …been in a strange lazy mood today, and it’s really cold out today too so my apartments giving me this wierd vibe all day (old house its been quiet except for the creeking) anyway I need to quit drinking and go to bed. goodnight

I totally love the yes and nose on this model!
are you going to animate? or create a scene for a picture?

One question guys. How can you use Windows as main 3D workstation?
Paranoia:)

Try K3D with bmrt:)

Nice texture map. Could use a lot more colour variation IMO to highlight and soften up some areas.

Looking very good. Keep on going.

I’m just used to windows, would like to get another harddrive though and put some version of linux on it,

I’m just really familiar with windows and I keep going back to it, and my photoshop is on windows

and also why did you quote the above statement, and then talk about linux?

yes been thinking about that may small amounts of blue I dont knnow

Got a problem I need help with and feel silly for asking and probably should know how to do this but oh well.

I joined two objects togather both of them were different colors, when I joined them the two colors stayed the same, so how do I put the entire mesh back into one material so that it will all be the same color?

can you not select the vertices on the half you want to change the colour for and try and apply the colour/texture to it?

I had something similar to this the other day…Im still a noob so just played and managed to sort it…but cant remember exactly how I did it…sorry :expressionless:

I would think that you could just delete all the materials linked to the mesh in the outliner some how but I thought I did that and I reapplied a single material to it but it only showed up on one part of the mesh
