I decided to try a human body. I think the topology is pretty good. Just need to uv it. Took 5 weeks. It has been rigged and is currently in its action pose.

is this a wind up or have you posted a wrong pic?? excuse me for being blatent but isnt it just 5 cubes and a sphere?

And this took you 5 weeks? Are you a newbie? if so, i appologise.

Can you post a picture of the character when its fully rigged with controls etc.

simple, il give you that. Not bad. But even for the newest noob, 5 weeks is a bit long unless youve been away from your pc for 4 weeks and 6 and a half days.

keep posting

Wow, some people don't notice humor when it smacks them in the face. :p

This is kinda unoriginal though, since there was a guy a while back who posted a project of a cube.

My crits: put some more emphasis on the arms. user added image

Update.

Added more edge loops. Worked on the arms like Jr Who. suggested. Thinking about putting it in zbrush to add detail like abs. I changed his arm movements to. He is now running.

He is so buff that u cant even see his nose. The effects of steriods people. Its not worth it. Other things get smaller if you know what I mean.

Haa, brilliant.

Looks like a scene from 'The Running Man'

www.stevenegan-cgi.com

"Your weapons are no match for ours! People of Mars, surrender!"
"Um, this isn't Mars. This is Earth."
"Earth? Earth-with-nuclear-weapons Earth?"
"Yes."
[long pause] "Friend!!"
