Hi all!

This is my last work, it is based in a Stephen Silver concept.

Hey Alex! Nice model man. For something this simple I would suggest spending a bit more time with the shading and rendering. This is the step that makes cartoon models shine in the final presentation.

I would definitely look into making some really nice spec and reflection maps as well as try out a bit of SSS on the skin and fresnel and silk on the fabric. As far as rendering goes I'd set up a 3 point lighting rig and some nice final gather with an HDRI map.

BTW, what are you using to make this little guy in?

Thanks nghia59!

I´ve used 3D Max for modeling, photoshop and bodypaint for texturing, rendered in Maya with mental ray.
