Crits plz.

It looks old

Give it some teeth (or use less smoothing), make the body less round and add some real joints on legs.

frazzler · « **Reply #2 on:** June 18, 2009, 07:39:20 am »

I agree. Looks kind of frail and bendy. Add in some teeth, a sharper jaw, and put some spikes on its joints. If the joints have spikes, it will make it more menacing and it it's legs won't look like play-doh. Besides that, excellent work, +1

it looks like it is made out of chocolate. and is melting.

mooseberry · « **Reply #4 on:** June 18, 2009, 08:45:19 am »

It's also pretty good. Keep improving it!

Ellohir · « **Reply #5 on:** June 18, 2009, 09:14:37 am »

I think it needs more sharp, arachnid-style claws. And the bendings of the legs should be improved.

Anyway, pretty good job.

The legs need to be larger and closer to the body and the body needs to be raised. like this:

nice work i really like that head! prolly the jaw must be thinner to fit into the mouth when closed (well in the case if they ever close it, what i doubt)
sharpen those curves, so it will be less chocolated :-)
i dont know how zbrush works, but maybe its more easy if you make different parts like jaw, legs, etc separated and then mixing it together.
keep it evolving!

What do you guys think of the claw elbows? I'm thinking of using the same technique for the leg joints, but I'm not sure.

+ OPTIMUS + · « **Reply #9 on:** June 18, 2009, 04:03:48 pm »

should be more segmented!

{7}wrath · « **Reply #10 on:** June 19, 2009, 03:22:43 am »

Crits as always appreciated.

mooseberry · « **Reply #11 on:** June 19, 2009, 04:40:06 am »

Starting to get there, but the legs need a lot more detail.

{7}wrath · « **Reply #12 on:** June 19, 2009, 04:44:03 am »

Yeah, I'm saving the legs for last just cos I think they are going to be such a hassle.

Ellohir · « **Reply #13 on:** June 19, 2009, 09:35:11 am »

Better. Keep on that way

E-Mxp · « **Reply #14 on:** June 19, 2009, 11:12:23 am »

Needs pointy tail O:

Looks quite good.

Ellohir · « **Reply #15 on:** June 19, 2009, 12:32:34 pm »

May someone put captures of an untextured original tyrant to compare?

{7}wrath · « **Reply #16 on:** June 19, 2009, 02:19:21 pm »

Here, I found a WIP shot of the "Big Mofo" for you guys to compare. http://err-overflow.deviantart.com/art/Big-Mofo-WIP-3-2605860

Winnie the Pooh · « **Reply #17 on:** June 19, 2009, 08:29:31 pm »

It's good! To criticize, i have only to say that it is pretty bulgy for a terrible tyrant. The legs should be sharper and more clean cut. otherwise gj!

amz181 · « **Reply #18 on:** June 19, 2009, 08:49:43 pm »

My only problem is that the torso looks too human like...

Apart from that it looks awesome.

Wow, texturing does a lot. Can't wait to see your final textured tyrant, must be great for wallpapers and things like that. Anyway, I think that the legs should be more like the claws ^^

{7}wrath · « **Reply #20 on:** June 20, 2009, 03:10:11 am »

Tonight's update is on the chest and legs:

UPDATE NEW PIC

worked on the chest plates some more, sharpened the legs, and fleshed out the arm plates.
Crits appreciated.

UniqPhoeniX · « **Reply #21 on:** June 20, 2009, 07:44:14 am »

Make the body less fat and add some spikes

Good work so far tho.

{7}wrath · « **Reply #22 on:** June 20, 2009, 06:49:40 pm »

Do you think i should make the crest on the back of his head layered like the origional? or leave as is

Repatition · « **Reply #23 on:** June 20, 2009, 07:02:52 pm »

As is! the layers look dum!

Archangel · « **Reply #24 on:** June 20, 2009, 07:04:53 pm »

melted chocolate. seriously.

{7}wrath · « **Reply #25 on:** June 20, 2009, 08:03:14 pm »

I'm blocking out the forms before I add detail. My workflow is FORMS >> RETOPOLOGY >> DETAIL/COLOR >> EXPORT DETAIL TO TEXTURE

So... What is this? http://err-overflow.deviantart.com/art/Big-Mofo-WIP-3-2605860

BTW nice update. I liked the spike on the elbow, could you add it? And the arms looking a bit more down? The posing in the original model was just perfect

{7}wrath · « **Reply #27 on:** June 20, 2009, 08:35:57 pm »

A little before-and-after, just because I enjoy spamming pics so much.
BEFORE:

AFTER:

Ellohir · « **Reply #28 on:** June 20, 2009, 11:05:58 pm »

I though this spike to be more like an extension of the forearm, like the elbow joint was moved a bit foward, leaving a spike aligned with the forearm. That would look cooler to me

Anyway, I think this change has improved the model. Keep on this way ^^

Warp Viper · « **Reply #29 on:** June 21, 2009, 03:38:03 am »

Keep in mind detail adds polys? ...Or how ever the Q3 engine renders things.
Tremulous already pushes the bounderies of Q3 as is. I prefered the beefier looking model at the top. Might just need abit of muscle definition and a skin. Could look great, keep it up.
