I dont know how to explain that... i think the model has too big eyes, like eyes with too much height... especially the left one. Maybe it's just a bad impression.

Brad26 · 10-01-2007, 09:08 PM

Well it is a WIP, but I think the eyes turned out awesome, but I do think they are too big. I'll make them smaller. But I think the eye shape and overall look is great imo. Thanks for the feedback.

I'm going to make those eyes smaller now...

Supra · 10-01-2007, 09:14 PM

No problem for the feedback, i know what it is :-)

Brad26 · 10-01-2007, 10:31 PM

There, revised, smaller eyes and a few ebo tweaks now in place, and I think I'm done

Very nice work!

i dunno Brad, i kinda liked the first one better. But that's just me.

Prodigy · 10-02-2007, 01:04 AM

naw, I like the second one. Nice job as usual Brad.

Marius · 10-02-2007, 09:38 AM

Great, and yeah the second one is a bit better.

How did you closed the mouth that good? I'm not too good at this point, therefore I hate pics with open mouths :p

I'll tell you a little secret.

If you want to close a mouth in a portrat pic. The easiest, yet laziest, way to do it, is to just copy someone else's lips on top of his along with some skin to surround it! I do that all the time, and if you do it correctly, it'll look genuine.

1) Open the smileysmiley pic.
2) Open another pic, preferably from his team, so you don't have to edit the lighting etc. that much, because it's the same.
3) Lasso the area you want to paste from the non-smiley pic.
4) Paste it into the smileysmiley portrait.
5) Soft erase the edges so that it blends.
6) Edit the lip shape etc. if needed.
7) Done!
-------------
As for the cyber, that is absolutely amazing. Only thing I would still do, use ebo editor to make his face a bit shorter, starting from the bridge of the nose. So simultaneously making the nose shorter.

But like I said, that is absolutely amazing, and I want this in my game. NOW.

Brad26 · 10-02-2007, 11:12 AM

What Antti said about the lazy trick with mouths, that's exactly what I did here in this case. Other times I close the lips myself by cutting/pasting bottom lip up, blending and other tricks. But the lazy way is much quicker!

Thanks all for the replies

Antti- I'll consider your suggestion as well. I actually did do just that with the ebo file, but maybe it's not quite enough.

Marius · 10-02-2007, 11:25 AM

Hmm good idea, never thought about doing that, I always tried to close the mouth on the original pic with the lasso + cloning tool.

Unorthadox · 10-02-2007, 12:33 PM

awesome as always, you are on your game brad!

Jimbo66 · 10-02-2007, 12:50 PM

First one is golden. Second looks like the first one's texture. The first one's texture looks ****eyed, but damn it plain flat works in game and that after all is ALL THAT COUNTS...(who cares if he looks like he has some strange disease in the fac, as long as the in game looks as sharp as that...)

lol, thanks.. I guess

The texture is the same on both versions - just ebo'd the eyes down in size, moved the eyes and nose together closer to the mouth (decreasing upper lip size), and a small chin touch-up. The texture is untouched.

I don't know which version to go with now, but it looks like it'll be a split vote regardless. I have both ebo configs for easy swapping if I need to go back to the first version..:p

But thanks for the honest and straightforward opinion and unique reply
