Custom Marco Rossi - LeleleleMAXIMUM - 01-10-2011
Was supposed to be a secret project, but I don't want to work a month and then find out there was something I missed.
I'm working on a fully custom 3d Marco Rossi

From Metal Slug.

Paintover to show what I'm going for:

please continue and finish it
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - Shadowth117 - 01-10-2011
This is awesome on so many levels. I have to say, I'm really looking forward to seeing the final product if you decide to finish it.
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - LeleleleMAXIMUM - 01-10-2011
Yeah, let's hope I can keep motivated. Thanks, guys.
BodyPaint decided to die on me halfway through (when I accidentally exported it to another extension, bleh) , but I have this to show:

Almost forgot his cleft chin, heh.
Known problems:
1. The ear is more red than anywhere else. Need to use that red in other areas.
2. Eyes look a tad too close to each other.
3. Seams. SEAMS. How I hate you with a passion.
4. Trapezius muscles look wrong
Feel free to crit even the shape of things (that's why I included full body views).
Forgot to show the back, maybe later

Looks incredible so far. I especially love your body texture. I'm excited to see an end result here. I have to ask though, why would you do your first texture wip in grayscale? Wouldn't you just have to paint over it to achieve colors anyway?
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - LeleleleMAXIMUM - 01-11-2011
The grayscale is actually a hi-res sculpt.
I retopo'd that and got a low-poly version. I was going to just transfer the hi-res details onto the low-res model, but it looked damn ugly.
Besides, that is the 3d equivalent of drawing a vector and then reducing the color to make it look like a sprite, heh.
And I like the look of painted textures better.

Hi I have no life
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - Lexou Duck - 01-11-2011
Seriously dude, get a polycount account.
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - LeleleleMAXIMUM - 01-11-2011
Last time I lurked, their posts were months old.
I go to GameArtisans.
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - Lexou Duck - 01-11-2011
Will check it out.
Please just see their "Mobile & webgaming, post your lowpoly art here" thread. I should duplicate it here, btw

Pants
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - Zerox - 01-12-2011
Ah nice start with the pants/boots. So are you going to paint the belt on too?
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - LeleleleMAXIMUM - 01-12-2011
Might add some floating geometry for the belt, since it doesn't really look good painted.
Forgot to mention, notice how the shape of the pants are fixed a little (compare the last two images).
Haven't started on the boots yet.
Might start making the hair.
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - Sengir - 01-14-2011
Please mentor me on how to use Anim8or (I would use Blender but my laptop is retarded)
Serious post, I really like your style and I've been learning OpenGL ES to develop 3D games
RE: Custom Marco Rossi - mugeninfo25 - 01-15-2011
this looks fantastic good job so far
