first human

Hey all!

This is my first human model. It´s made in Blender. What can i do better? I know that it need practice to make good looking humans but tipps would be great I will model the head now btw.

I´d say that his arms are too thin and make his chest a bit wider
good start though

long fingers

Tkae soeme fat away from the legs and give it to the arms.

Oh and when the arms are thicker, they may have to be increased in length.

But still a good start ^^

TIP: Allways use bluprint (yes, yes don't be lazy ) and allways model only one side of your human model and then mirror it for more accuracy, becouse both sides are symetrical

cheers

raise the knuckles a bit on the hand, and make the fingers shorter, wit a thinner pinking and the thumb on a better angle

update:

Looks like you widend the hip .. I would shrink it back again and widen the chest + where are his shoulders?
Should it become a male or female model?

The hands look better, the arms are still a bit thin.
Just make the same pose with one of your own arms and take a look at it

edit:
oh and the upper thigh should be a bit bigger or get bigger when it ends in the hip.

Here is a little pic that I drew of a female body to show a bit how a human body lower part looks like:



Concept art is pretty usefull when modeling characters

Thank you all for the great help. It should become a male model.

update:

Can we get a front view? It's easier to notice things wrong with it when we can look at a front view. However, from looking at him...

1-The part right below the pelvic bone looks a bit shabby.
2-The pelvic looks too flat, round it so that it flows between the legs a bit more.
3-Unless he is wearing tight jeans, the area above the pelvic shouldn't come in then out.
4- His body cavity is way too tall, and
5- His chest cavity is way too flat.
6- He has no palm, make the fingers further out from the wrist.

when the model is finished i will add a normalmap to add more detail to his chest.

That's a really good first attempt. The human body is the most difficult thing to model. I have a tip to offer. If you have poser, or if you can get a realistic human into your program, then use it as a base to start from. Freeze (disable editing of) the hipoly model, then build your low poly model over it.
Another tip, start with a lower polygon model, then increase the poly count on your next model. Try making a 300 - 500 poly model. It will look blocky, but it will teach you the basics. It's easier to learn from your mistakes on a low poly model. When you work on higher poly models, you will know what not to do, and it will be less frustrating.

My tip: when tuning the proportions use the photo of a real human as a background texture, or something like that, this will definately make it easier
