ell, modeling of my Silver Surfer is complete! I finished up the head and hands this weekend. The picture above is the completed model with what I think will be the final material (this may change a bit). The picture on the right shows the finished body wire frame render. The anatomy of the Surfer made some of the modeling a lot easier. For instance, he doesn't have ears! He also doesn't really have eyelids. He also obviously doesn't have any hair on his body, which should make the materials really easy.

The picture on the left is a quick wire frame of the finished hand. I added quite a bit of detail to the top of the hand because I'd like to do some animations with close ups of the hands. They should hopefully deform really well, so the next step is rigging them up!

I also tweaked the head/face this weekend a little bit and am pretty satisfied with it. The video below shows a 360 degree view of it. The next step is rigging everything. It's been a little while since I have rigged anything, so I'm excited to get back into it!

am really excited about getting this head modeled! The picture to the right is a picture of the finished head and then where the head started. I concentrated on making sure I had nice topology and good edge loops all around. It needs some tweaking, as does the rest of the body, but at least the structure is all completed.

Modeling this head has gotten me excited about doing head modeling. After this model is complete, and before I rig it I may try to do a couple more heads.

ot a huge update today, but a fun one. I did some more formal wire frame renders of my current project. I also did a quick 360 rotation animation, which can be seen below.
