I started this model a while back and never finished it, but now I started up on it again, so I'll be posting some WIP in this thread.

Click here to see the Motaro WIP pictures.

I need for you guys to help me make him by critiquing my work.

You can tell me what you think looks good or bad, and if you have any ideas, let me read them.

If you have questions for me, I'll be happy to answer them.




The goal I have with this model is Photo realism, or I'm gonna try to get as close to it as I can.

I'm trying to improve on my work to be able to get a job at Midway Games as a 3D character artist, for FMV's or real time models.

If someone that works at midway can help me out with this I would greatly appreciate it. You could give me some critiques or PM me.

Thanks

dude, that is amazing. I don't even like motaro and that is kick ass. can't wait to see it finished. Too bad you didn't do kintaro or shao kahn though. Then i'd pay you to finish it. lol
Thanks

I'm not going to make the other bosses, I'm just doing Motaro. After him, I'll just make my own characters.

Bro, that is just awesome! I absolutely love his look, so bad ass.

I remember looking at the early concepts a long time ago when i first came here. Since then i thought you'd never end up working on Motaro again, so this was a great suprise. Cant wait until its done.

Awesome job homes.

Hmm. Well he looks really good but his arms seem to short for his body, perhaps make them abit longer.. Other than that it looks pretty damn good.

Also are you going to mirror things only? Or make the horns look abit diferent front eachother and change the face some to give it more individualism?

Anywho. Good work so far , I'll keep an eye on this, I want to see where this goes.

It's very nice, though i think the legs are a tad 'stubby', if you get my meaning (mostly the front two. They seem a little too muscular for the length they're at).
All in all quite well done.

Same thing I'm thinking. Other than that, it was pretty good. He is half-man, half-horse, so try and make his legs look more like a horse's.

That is so awesome, dude. You are a great 3D modeller.
Good eye guys, Yeah...I'm going to make the 2 halves different. I just have it mirrored right now until I'm ready to do that.

The legs are too thick I agree, I was looking at that my self.

I'll see if the arms look better longer too. They might look short because there aren't any hands yet, but I'll check on that.

Good stuff, thanks a lot.

The legs and body aren't ready yet by the way, I just made the basic shape. I'm going to model all the muscles for them later, the same as the arms and torso.

I was also thinking of changing the armor on him, try and make him more original to me. So it's not a straight copy....
Oh....by the way, The anatomy of Motaro is very different from a real horse.

It's like day and night. Motaro even has an extra joint in his back legs. I think.

Just compare the drawing of Tobias with a real horse...You'll see what I mean.

Wow, that's an amazing model, can't wait to see it when it's finished. The only thing I don't like is that his legs are too similar to that of a horse's. Motaro's back slopes down more than a horse, like you had said before. Can you change it, or would it take too long to do?
No, I can fix it, It's easy.

Oh My God! you're model is amazing! It looks so realistic and yet it loos so much like Motaro! I wish I could make models like that but my MK Models must have a low poly count or else it'd crash the game. I make MK charactrers for Tomb Raider. So far, I have replaced Lara Croft with Sonya, Mileena, Kitana and Frost. My Sonya one is my favourite!
Here is a model of the face from the soul chamber in MK3.



It was a request by Keith.

It took me about 3 hours to model it, which is kind of slow actually. confused

I didn't put too much detail in to the model because Keith wants to use it for real time in a Tomb raider game engine.

Oooooooooooooooooo! Bleed, You're my hero, hehe! grin

I remeber seeing the head/torso shot a while back, this is a great addition. What detail!

Good luck with the job, too. Just keep up what you're doing, it'll happen for you!
I've been trying to get in to Midway for over a year man. sad

It's hard as hell, I guess I have to be able to do stuff like this to be able to land the job.

Even as a beginner, they won't even give me an internship. Whenever I ask, they don't even respond.

It's frustrating as all hell, but I'm not gonna quit. I'll keep practicing and practicing......... till they think I'm good enough.

I'm sure I'll get it with time and persistence.

Great Work Bleed. Keep trying and don't give up. Your will eventually get your name in there at Midway.

You could end up totally remaking the MK3 game in 3D, and then some.

The only reason I can think of why they're not giving you an internship is because you dont have any original creations like new characters or backgrounds. Otherwise the existing MK characters that you made in 3D look awesome.

That's probably true. You know it's Ed's game now.

But still keep going, if not an MK title then maybe for something else they are working on.
That could be it, but then they should still be able to recognize that I have the talent and the drive. A lot of people would have given up by now.

I have a ton of original characters to make, I'm actually working on one right now but It's too early to show and my scanner is broken so I can't show you guy's the sketch.


That reminds me, I'm gonna go to Best buy today and see if they can fix it.
