I know you're not finished yet, but it still acquires a lot of work with the overall shaping of the character.

For those of you interested in this.. just a bit of a heads up--

I've been hunting the past 3 weeks or so and when I havn't been i've been looking into some colleges etc and working on a bunch of various stuff, Sorry I havn't had an update >.<!

I've been completly redoing his body to add a serious ammount of more detail, and i'm even thinking of bringing it into zbrush and adding some nice muscular tones, but i'm not sure if I want to or not yet because if I do it's going to be kindof a pain to work with if I decide to animate him..

Anyway, I should have an update by the end of next weekend with re-done skin and tattoo's hopefully and alot more detail =)

I've been toying with his hair alot, and i'm trying to figure out how to get it look really nice like they did with Cloud's hair on FF7 AC movie, that'ld be perfect for his hair imo with the clumping the way they had it =P Gonna take some time messing around to figure out how to get it to look nice like that though.

Sorry it's slow, i'm learning as I go on this heh..

you're progressing pretty good. It's looking good but, when i saw the sideview i think the proportion from the back of his neck to his back looks awkward. Can't wait for the outcome.

Alright, I said this weekend, havn't got as much done as I'ld have liked because i've been playing with the hair system in 3ds max quite a bit latly and the renders on some of them (depending on your hair settings) just take forever =P

Anyway, here's a bit of an update, i worked on almost everything adding alot of detail while still trying to keep it all to 4 sided poly's.. I still need to do the back and legs before i'm going to start working on his clothes, but hopefully soon. I've been really busy latly and as this is just something I do when i'm not busy it isn't getting done as fast as i'ld like. But we're getting there slowly ^^

Anyway, feel free to C & C it, i'll try to take what you've got into consideration. I don't want to spend too much more time on the body itself because it's just going to be covered up most of the time by his clothing anyway.. But it seems the more and more I work on it the more I seem to come across things that just don't look proper =(

Enjoy, and thx for lookin~

if i may comment, the eyes dont kinda match. renjis eye have a strong demeanor to them, but the eyes on urs looks like hes surprised. this is just my opinion tho. cant wait to see the finished result eitherway.
keep up the hard work

It may have been down today, simply because my host in general was upgrading their servers, but it should be working now, no one else has problems =(

Oh! It's back online now. Yokatta, thank goodness. Very Happy

Wow, they're so great! It might've taken a painstakingly long time for you to create even the head yes? And the eyes nee more shadow, he doesn't have an eyelid visible there. As they said, he looks surprised. And the eyelashes too.. but I guess it's not finished yet, so it could take some time... (^_~)v

But I think the arms are too thin, especially the forearms. Isn't he a bit more mascular than that? And the skin color's a bit dark... the pic you showed from the anime, he looks a bit whiter. Confused

Anyway, I know it took a lot of work! Great job on your dedication! Keep up the great work! Wink

It's 3ds max, it's not just some quick put together something cool and move on program.... lolz

Alright, time for an update.. I've been playing Silkroad Online latly, so once again... it's been cutting into my design time latly.. But anyway, lemme know whatcha think...

I've still got some things to work on, but i'm probably going to move into clothing/rigging him now and i'll work on fine detail later. Though if anyone see's anything that looks weird/offset or something, feel free to express ^^

In this update i tweaked all sorts of stuff, but mainly his legs and got the rest of his tattoo's mapped out properly. (maybe not perfect, but close) =)

Anyway, hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!

Okay well, the more i've begun to get pretty serious about this guy, the more I find I've got a long way to go before I can really start to make progress with 3d modeling..

I was going to start working on some clothing, but instead of just modeling it on him i was going to use the cloth system in max and then simulate the animations with it that way later hopefully it'll look better. I got about 1/4th of the way though rigging this guy, and I realized that i'm not really satisfied with him yet. So.. I started working on some more detailed body parts that will hopefully move better than something cheesy..

I started on the feet and hands, i'm going to work my way though his legs and hands, chest, and then really try to get some nice detail in his head.

After all this i'll rig him then start playing with the cloth system some more.. Sorry if anyone was getting excited to see what clothing/weapons will look like, but if i'm going to go all the way with this character i wanna do it right ^^

I'm still quite a noob at this, and more than 75% of the time I spend working on it is actually just learning how to do stuff rather than sculpting etc right now =P

Anyway, here are some Before & After quick renders of the new hands and feet...
