Can anyone do Humanoid Models?
« on: August 21, 2004, 10:07:42 am »
Hey guys,
For a while ive been working on a Pen and Paper RPG. Now im making a book to be published (at least online) and i need a favor. I want to have a picture of each race (well, two actually, one male, one female). I want the pictures to be of a Humanoid Model. And i was hoping someone here would be willing to model my races for use in the "book".

I would like them to be fairly high-poly, but whatever works.

alright, here is a picture of one of the races, just to give you guys an example:

The Andromedans.

I've suggested this in the past to others.. but maybe hunt around in the Freedom Force groups.. they have a Character Tool similar to our ModViewer.. let's you do shots like this one.



That'd let you do something similar to what you'd like to do, and uses a white background which'd be easily to mask out to do a background later on.  The trick there though is to find a mesh that will serve your needs.  They've not got the range of tools there that we do here for the meshes, and because they're in NIF format, they're tougher to work with... and you have to have something in your modelling program to do characters like Character Studio for Max.  But it may be able to help you out.

The only person that I know that was doing figures from scratch that was in SFC was Lord Vader.. you may still be able to get ahold of him and ask him for a hand.  He was doing anime-style figures the last time I had seen him..
..ooOOoo..totally useless information..ooOOoo..

been too lazy to update it!  Check Battleclinic!

Hmm, anyone know where/how i can get in touch with him?
