WIP: Old Man's Head with Vray Demo

[Joe]

Hi!
Hey!! one of the first image posts......great !
i worked on a headmodell lately from time to time.
Recently i thought i'll make a quick trip to textureland and texturize it.
It's not perfectly mapped of course, it was only to get some idea how he will gonna look.
and WHOAAA !! what a great look it got with vray (DEMO only - sorry )
and what a little retouche can do

Comments welcome !

direct out of max (little color corrected in ps though )



with a little grain added.....

I like it :]

some places the textures seems a bit stretch. Like where the ear is connected to the head

looks cool

[Joe]

yeah i know...
the texturing was only done to have a quick overview how he'll gonna look, but since i still will change the geomety of the head, i did'nt want to waste to much time in tweaking the uvcoordinates

i'm glad you liked it - thanks for response

well, i think you will put it but, let me tell you.. it doesnt look like that old.
he needs more wrinckels.


good work.

I know that eyes deteriorate as we get older but I think that yours are a little too blurry. Maybe just a liiiittle more sharpness... unless you were going for that really old look. Poor guy don't know what I'd do without my eyes

thanks for comments !

if i've got time i'll give him more wrinkles and take care of all the texturing probs - including blurred eyes, did'nt notice these..


Conclusion:
i've got work to do - including more modelling (body,details etc.)
rigging, setting up morph targets for the face and make him ALIVE !!

thanks again !
