3D Mesh of Kerbals (now with Sketchfab)

[rodion_herrera]

Started a casual "mesh-sketching" the Kerbals in MAX. Eventually I might import these rudimentary meshes to ZBrush and add actual creases and folds to the suit and etc...but for now, just this:

Might also create the body parts as "sculpts" for an opensource Virtual World platform called OpenSIM, so I can animate them there in real time.

UPDATE: SKETCHFAB

Initial test render...

Awesome.!.!.!

[sytaline]

That is so funny hahaha!

The initial render reminds me of this:

[Needles_10]

Eyes need to be bigger, mouth isn't necessarily a smiley. Good work anyways!

[rodion_herrera]

Hahaha, well yes, between playing KSC and dealing with RL work, this bit will take some time to finish--I just managed to squeeze in a bit the other day But yeah, the final version will be a true 3D head, with the mouth cavity, teeth, etc. I eventually want to rig it for animations, but will see.

[rewdew2]

Not bad. not bad at all.

I think this just might go somewhere.

[rodion_herrera]

Testing this via Sketchfab...

Hmmm, this is a 3DS export, and clearly I see issues with parts that I used the "mirror" tool with, and also, some surfaces have normal issues. Will see what's going on.

[rewdew2]

Not bad.

Hopefully you can get it to work out.

Because after about... 5 months of modeling work. i came up with this

and it's still WIP.

Nice use of sketchfab

It's looking good so far, but I think the head curves inwards a bit too much on the sides.

Yep I didn't touch this after I initially posted this before, thanks for the input--too busy playing KSP (and contributing my usual senseless stuff in these boards LOL).

Spockerb and Kirkerb! Nice one! Yeah I'll see if I can squeeze in time this week to actually flesh them out more. Thanks.

My god... They do look like Spock and Kirk...

Oops.

AND. Video in 7 days people, keep an eye out.

[RockyTV]

Waaait, are you going to make a local OpenSIM world and make the characters as Kerbals???? It would be nice if someone did that!

[rewdew2]

Yeah. a game with kerbal's in it would be awesome.

Even if it were a space simulator.

[rodion_herrera]

On hold, indefinitely. Real life is catching up with me.
