Description they're not all done yet, but getting closer. I've got one more character planned for sure, but may do another one after that... Guess I'll see.

3dsmax, photoshop.

Oh whao, just saw both links. Mesh is so nice and clean. Do you start with a primitive rectangle shape? Also, do you model in polys, nurbs, or sub divs?

Wonderful fan work too. Awesome details, like on the hands, and the hair is wonderful. I can't figure out how you make it look soft on the edges.

Athey In reply to NightmareSherbert [2009-11-10 22:46:27 +0000 UTC]

With those characters, and more often then not in most models, I start with a primitive box. Sometimes I start with just a plane though. Faces I almost always start with a plane.

I always use polys, although with my higher res, non-game stuff, I usually throw on a nurms subdiv to smooth it over.

I've got a whole bunch of tutorials here on my DA account, and on my portfolio site here - [link]

One of the tutorials I've got posted covers hair, and another one went through the steps when I made a hand.

Is it bad if I can tell that you used Dream of Doll heads as references?
Anyways, nice job. :3

hehe - not bad, but it is rather obvious I think anyone who has ever seen any of the asian bjds would recognize the style of them.

I adore the way you seamlessly texture your characters. I am trying to get better at that. I also use 3DS Max and Photoshop for my characters. I am currently working on several projects involving character design. Great work!

how long have you been doing 3d?
any tips?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Athey In reply to Keymela [2009-05-13 23:39:19 +0000 UTC]

Lets see... 1997 was when I got my first copy of 3d Studio 4 for DOS. So I guess it's been like 12 years.

All tips are in my tutorials, which can be found here: [link] And here: [link]

Good designs and textures. I am still getting use to 3D Max. I much better at using Maya but I would like learn to use more than one type of 3D program.
