here's the shirt - not final but an attempt at folds around the shoulder/arm area and some more subtle ones up the side of the shirt

ereitz - cheers I messed around with split poly - infact I actually re attached it - it came out better the second time

el_newty - i used a method from a tutorial by steven tubbrit

well I have a dilemma - my model is neither comical or realistic - I would prefer to go down the comical/characature route but I am not too sure what to do - any suggestions on how I could alter my direction?

here's the latest position - is it too late to make it more cartoony?

cheers

What if you rendered it cellshaded? I'm not sure how you do that though...

And you should do the hair kindof cartoonish, and try to make all your oustanding facial features more outstanding.

You could alter the proportions and/ or exagerate them a bit if you wanted a more cartoonish look. You could give the figure bigger hands and arms and make the head bigger etc. Or perhaps make the shirt really large and give him big tennis shoes.

You could try a toonshader effect with the proportions you have as GreyFox suggests (I have been playing around with that since I read M's thread where he shaded the fifth element weapon and it is rather fun). That would mean you could keep the model as it looks now but in a cartoon scene.

Yea, like witchy said.. basically what i would do is take different areas of the body, and make them bigger than average. Example would be, the chin, ears, nose, hands and feet. Also, if you take your eyes, which are quite realistic in the above render.. and morph it, to be more stretched out vertically or something.. maybe add more skin over the eyebrows... just fool around with it.

Looking good, big shoes will be great too. A big head from all those tennis victories is a good thing! M's idea of making the eyes bigger is a winner I think.

a bit more - what about the scale of the shorts - are they too small?? just thought it might accentuate the large hands and head(shoes as well when they are done)

cheers
