here is a little guy i am making.. when he will be done, he'll be in a pic with the lego dude i made... they'll be together (friends or enemy, don't know yet). who knows ,an animation might come up

.
anyway i, myself can't decide which one looks best...
here is an idea , I will put a pirate hat on him , give him an eye patch then, a normal sailorish setup for the lego man and have them fight...

what render do you prefer?

think you should cocentrate on modelling first...give him a body, maybe a nose...
afterwards you can think about texturing, lighting and rendering...
look at all the great modellers here in this forum (i.e AkinAyman, Tyson,Luima and others),...they don't post rendered images while working on a project, they don't even think of lighting the scene, they just post screenshots of the viewport, cause everythink apart from modelling is just distracting them...
and that's the right way...try to do one step after the other
apart from this little speech, i like the blue one most

Cool head, will like to see the body with more details. For the moment, the breast make him looks like a ...

But I like the concept of the head anyway, looks like a funny character.

Hey this guy is cool, lots of character here. I really like the wide lapels (kinda like a pirate Elvis!

)
The baggy sleeves look great - Any ideas how you will rig this? I mean, will try to keep the sleeves loose or keep them kind of solid?
-

but befor i rig hime... i'll finnish the model first then i'll texture him

i played around with him nothing changed apart from th beard i gave him
do you think he is better with or without?
-

Hmmm...I'm not diggin that beard color....also it would look better as a tuft coming from the end of his chin only....right now the full-facial beard looks a bit weird.
-
Richard 1,943 posts
ok, i'll try that.. i was just messing around with it... i think i'll just remouve it anyway...

the beard is a bit exagerated and it conceals the detailed contours of the face ..you should give him a slight bit of stubble which will compliment his features without concealing much.
