May08: Forge

[mikey8086]

I have been wanting to do one of these projects for a long time. Came close to getting into last months. Here is what I have so far. His name is Forge. 10,000 tris really is a tough limit to stay at. I never pay attention to the count and just build. Glad I am taking part in this months project. Can't wait to see other's work as well.

Glad to see another entry. The 10k limit can be tough, but it's good practice for real world game restrictions. Look forward to seeing updates!

That looks pretty good, nice creative approach to a mechanical character :)

it is hard to stick to a 10 000 poly count i could clock up 10 000 just on the face alone of one of my creatures i have done in the past .


And right there lays the challenge :D

Looking good :)

It's coming along nicely. At least you are not breaking the poly count limit ;).

Judging from the mesh at least. :D

i like the use of colours on his outfit. Relying on textures is a very critical process on low poly characters thats for sure!

Keep up the good work!

to bad at the end of this all these game character could not be put into one huge real videogame! that would be really cool! haha.

thanks for the nice words from everyone. I was going to change the light blue color to a fire red instead...might post a few minor tweaks before I stay with one color set.

The game genre for my character is an 3red person persp action game. I have used Maya to create my character and After Effects for the final image. My level is about intermediate for Maya and After Effects. This would be my first game character I have created.

That looks great, Mikey. You're all set for the poll :)
