High Poly Natalya WIP

[blaize]

then maybe look at how you've fixed those things, because i hardly see any improvements.
and you dont need a drawovre, you just have to go to sites like www.fineart.sk and look around for pics.
and dont focus only on the persron ur trying to make, first try to get a good female face.

 

[Ravendust]

Skintones and eyecolour are way off. Her complexion is rosy and warm and you've made it a sickly looking green. Her eyes are grey, not olive green.

Look at the gallery.

From top:
Top of hair (fine)
Hairline (lower it)
Top eyelid (bring it down)
Bottom eyelid (ditto)
Tip of nose (bring it down slightly and make the nose thinner so the eyes can move closer together)
Top of top lip (bring it down)
Jawline (she has a strong jaw and it needs to be defined. From what I can see, she has a jawline parallel to her nose, it should be parallel to her lips).
Bottom lip (bring it down)
Chin (make the curve rounder and smoother)

Also the ears need to be lower on her head.

As for headshape, make the lower half full out more so it's like a rounded rectangle with a chin rather than upside-down triangle.

And female eyebrows aren't just horizontal curves above the eyes, they're like arched diagonals. That's not just based off one pic, theres hundreds on google.

dude! thank you sooo much! <3
This is what I have been looking for. Thanks alot man! I'll get to work asap

Oh ya... btw, her eyes are green, not grey

Btw, Can I get that picture without the ref lines plz?

 

[Almighty_Gir]

another small tip, bring the materials self ilumination up to 50, i think the shadows are throwing off your sense of proportion and depth.

 

[Ravendust]

You're welcome :]

Is that the pic you used as a colour reference for the skin? The whole pic has a nasty green overtone, like it was taken under a green light. Thats probably why the skin came out a bit greeny too. These pics are taken in normal lighting so they'll be more realistic looking and accurate:

Eyes:

Skintones:

yeap, thats my problem, I was wondering why... I used her skin tone, but it had a greenish overlay... thanks And, I need that front picture of Natalya without the ref lines please.

...Lol... I have spent like 15 hours doing this damn head... wtf

@Gir-
50 % self-Ill makes her look like she is glowing... definatly not normal

 

[Almighty_Gir]

doesnt matter, the more illuminated the model is on its own, the less the viewport shadows can interfere with it, which means youll get a more accurate result while modeling.

 

[Ravendust]

Sure here you go:

 

[Growler]

Ok, I have done alot of work to the face... Here

 

[Almighty_Gir]

looking a lot better, much cleaner.

however, something ive learned about high poly stuff. while working in low poly, every vertex should define something, in high poly, every edgeloop should.

the main problems i see right now, is that you have a lot of loops which arent really doing anything, and are just crowding up the area, such as around the base of the nose.

you also have a lot of triangles, try to keep to quads as much as you can when your wotking in high poly.

try and define the shape of the eye a bit better, at the moment shes got an asian eye, rather than european, her lips could do with being brought in just that little bit further.

keep it up, your showing real improvement.

uhm growler.. is there somthing in gmax where you can change the % of illumination and diffuse?

if yes please set illumination on 30-40% and diffuse on 70-60%

i gues then it will looks abit better on the model

crits on skin:

she got a light orange and abit of red face... urs seems to les of both. the lips could get more red.

on the mesh:

select the eye brown area and move them abit more forewards and try to make a round head (suggest to use the top view)

make the nose holes less widhter.. looks like of a ***** <_<"

My last post wasn't skinned.

@Gir
Thanks, But... can I get a more thorough definition of what an edgeloop is? I read tutorials, and though many tell me to edgeloop, they don't define what it is.

 

[Volosity]

now all he needs is a perfict side picture lol then he is all set for his crappy nose and mouth job

 

[Almighty_Gir]

Edge loops, are exactly how it sounds.

its a loop of edges, used to define features. they are usually structured the same way the muscles flow on a body, so it adds to the realistic shape.

for example, on a face:

thats just basic though. take a look at this by EarthQuake on the polycount forum, how the loops actually flow around the face. its all one smoothing group, but because of how hes structrured the loops, theres no funky shadows.

edgelooping over the whole body (big pic):

and heres how it looked textured:

Edit: http://thnom.tehunlose.com/model_resource/white.htm

use that link, model as many of the guys/girls there as you can, just click a picture, and itll give you a full front/side view of them. its brilliant if you wanna practice speed modeling heads, or just practice in general.

 

[Growler]

whoops, I'm going to fix the eyes again. Forgot all about them. If anyone has any tips on a good way to start her torso, lemme know.

 

[Kasey]

Sure here you go:

She's hot. O_O and nice model Growler. Skintone should be changed like RD said though. Keep it up.
