3d Modeler and Texture artist Available for hire

I am currently accepting clients for 3d modeling. I can make both organic and inorganic objects well including *REAL* normal maps for creating higher detail.

I would post a few pics of my work here but as mercuryus can verify My computer I had all of my modeling work on died and is now a fresh piece of empty hard drive (aside from windows and a few tools of course).

Over the next few days I will try and whip up something to show what I can do.

OK - then let's start over with the same deal we already had?
Will you?

mercuryus

I hope you do unpaid jobs also?

If so contact me on MSN

Well yesterday and today I started working on something to show. It's not much, just a head (haven't even made the eyes or hair yet) but it does show what skill level I'm capable of. Also comments an crits are very welcome.








@mercuryus
PM'ed you

@Inestical
I cant do free work for the moment (need my rent money) but when I get some free time I will contact you because its always nice to have useful practice work.

I wanted to show what it looks like with the normal map, admittedly the below picture was rendered in blender, but I am showing it to show the detail of the normal map. Here is the head with only 372 polys (some of them are quads tho)

The overall proportions look good.

But the ear is way too high placed and the nose is too sharp.

And I dont see a reason for a normalmap in the last picture. With a normal-map you could fake all details in the ear, the wrinkles and other details.

if you saw it in motion the wrinkles, ear, and several other not geometry details are visible. They are just not obvious in static pictures because I turned the specular down so it didn't look so plastic. Also i dont know why the normal map makes the nose look so sharp, if you look at the other pictures it doesnt do that.

Edit- Still taking jobs if someone is interested.

I don't know what map size you used, but that texture is really blurry. Something I do to avoid that is to do what you've done overall, which is get a general gist of the features, but then I'll go in close for a little while and detail out each individual area.
The colors you're using + the blurriness kinda makes it look cartoony

Like I should talk



Also, you're details aren't showing up in your normal map very well. Did you use a sculpting program to create it or is it hand painted in Photoshop?

I used a sculpting tool, all i did is go use blender, make the lowpoly version, skin it, subdivide (as much as I could get which is like 78,000 polys on my desktop without lagging). and then I use the scuplting tool. as far as the size of the skin its actually 1024x1024 for only the face, but I figure since its that blurry I can shrink it without losing much detail anyways. but I will take what you said into consideration.

I still havent gotten any offers, except for one that I need an animator to help me with if someone is looking to do some light paid modeling.

no takers? I have some more examples I've been working on a model pack take a look:









and no these arent renders, this is representative of how they would show up in 3dgs because I have no lighting from the modeler added to them.

heres some more of my work:
