I like šŸ™‚ , im gonna call u ironik for now on, kinda didnt think of your name as ironik-art. lol, stupid me :crazy: :: yeah that neck position reminds me of the characters from 5th element, the space dudes (who held the five elements), their heads in the front. The neck hole will determain the way your neck and head is going to be, so have a good look at it before you start modelling. It might be interesting to keep it there in the frontish. ---

Yeah, Iā€™ll set about moving it before I model the head. Iā€™ve heard a few people mention a similarity to the 5th element! Iā€™ve watched that movie so many times it must be unconsiously showing in my pics. Iā€™ve been beating my brow trying to think of a scene to put it in. All I know for sure is that Iā€™m going to steer clear of the traditional sci-fi grates and pipes in favour of something a little more homely. ---

hehe, I was thinking of putting him smack bang in the middle off a hobbitville-like scene (modified to my own style). This is probably only because I want to do a scene that looks reminiscent of Bag-endā€¦ thatā€™s the only movie Iā€™ve seen more than the 5th element! ---

Iā€™ve moved the neck hole down slightly to accomodate a stooped head. I also adjusted my character rigging so it moves a little more realistically. No animation yet, Iā€™ll leave that till lastā€¦ but the poses can be easily changed now. ---

Looks like Iā€™m gonna need luck! My first attempt didnā€™t turn out as well as I wanted. It looks ok from far away, but doesnā€™t stand up to close scrutiny. Something funky happened with the modelling on the chest. I tried to fix it, but it looks like itā€™ll have to be remodelled (Dā€™oh!). Itā€™s not that visible from a distance. ---

Iā€™ve decided Iā€™ve gone as far as I want with this one. These things can consume days just tweakingā€¦ so here is a semi-final render (done in Max4) and some post-render work done in photoshop. Itā€™s not perfect, but itā€™ll do for now. Iā€™m going to get stuck back into some scene building work so I can have a completed image, rather than just models posing on blank-ish backdrops. Hope you like it! C:-) ---
