Shagg_E Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Amazing Tommy V! Will you then make a model for a cutscene(moving mouth, eyes, etc.), or just ingame? Edited February 19, 2015 by NRShaggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braindawg Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Great work man!! Might be the best HD tommy model i've yet to see! What did you use to model it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cautious Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) @NRShaggy I'm not exactly sure what game this model is going into, perhaps GTA IV because it can use specular and normal maps even though that engine doesn't use them sufficiently. or i could wait until GTA V is released for PC and prey that modding tools will be created or come with it . But i do plan to have a full facial rig for this model . @dragon_goran_mijo Thank you for your kind comment . @Braindawg I Used Mudbox to do the sculpt, and a program called 3D coat to make a low res version of the sculpt, Xnormal to bake the details and 3DS max to UV and tweak, and Tool Bag for real time rendering, if you have any more questions about how i made it feel free to message me i can go into more detail there . @Everyone Thank you all for the comments, i'm pretty satisfied with the model as of now, and i feel it looks like Tommy, so i made a few lighting scenarios to test the spec and the normal map to see if it still looks like Tommy in different lighting, like it would in game. i'm happy with the results.

Cautious Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Thanks for the positive feedback more work done, i feel happy with the face over all, the hair needs correcting with texture adjustments, and minor detail like moles, imperfections on the skin will also be added.

Cautious Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 @undertaker fan Thanks man I see this project as a real learning curve, I feel my skills have improved loads since my first post on the first page of this topic. I'm satisfied with the accuracy of the model and texture, so i'm going to pretty much finish up, clean the textures, fix all the minor bugs, and give the ear a new texture, then its pretty much done until release of mod tools for GTA 5 PC here is a comparison with the new texture updates CLICK THE IMAGE TO MAKE IT BIGGER BasicallyDrunK, Ezekiel, Reizov and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69_black_69 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 You really are nailing it, Cautious.Glad to see you improved so much lately!My suggestion is that if you're wanted it to look more realistic, and fit with today standard, ditch the original model as main ref. Seriously. GTA VC is old, and their character look cartoon-y as hell. Use it only as side ref.Your main ref should be a realistic human head. Learn how the muscle form the face, by looking at a lot of anatomy ref in the internet. Take the defining feature of Tommy Vercetti by looking the original model, and translate it to the base realistic head.I'm not really good at speaking things, so here's a quick paintover i made. I'm using this ref to make my paintover. Basically :- Eyes too far apart. The spaces between both eye is exactly one-eye long.- Mouth area need to be defined, especially the laugh lines, and below lips area. And for some part, it needs to be smoothed out, like his cheek.- Zygomatic bones of Tommy needs to be defined a lot more, judging by the original look.- Eye area need to be defined. - Forehead.I'm no expert, so if you didn't agree at some of my point, then ignore it.Here's a still, so you could look at it better Reizov, t0grul and Cautious 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cautious Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 @69_black_69Thanks for the feed back i really appreciate constructive criticism and that helps out allot i will make a few changes that you reccomend and post it here soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dedito Gae Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) translating Tommy into the HD era is difficult, maybe impossible, no offense 69-black-69, but the model you are showing makes Tommy look bad. maybe you should just take Ray Liotta as a model or this art by Patrick Brown: a nice mix between Tommy V and Ray Liotta IMO again, just a suggestion, i imagine that modelling a believable human face must not be easy. maybe could you consider cutting a bit his pompadour hair?

69_black_69 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 @Midnight None taken.Making a realistic head is pretty easy though. What make it hard is the fact that people interpretation of Tommy differ from each other.You say he should look like Ray Liotta, while i didn't see any Ray Liotta resemblance in the original look, only the fact that he is Tommy VA doesn't mean he should look like him.And that Patrick Brown fanart of Tommy, while it look badass, it didn't look like Tommy at all. Just another generic pretty-face protagonist interpretation of Tommy.So, it all come down to Cautious himself.@CautiousGlad i could help.If you think your original model is fine, then it's fine that you ignore my suggestion or somebody else.If there's a criticism or suggestion, doesn't mean you should follow them. Do what you think is best for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigeez Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Wow that's actually amazing, well done mate, cant wait to see this in GTA V. And anyways its kinda hard to make Tommy look "exactly" the same, since people in older games didn't look like humans XD That was closest it can get. I appreciate your hard work on this one:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cautious Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 @_F_ Your opinion, can't please everyone, it seems that more people are liking it than disliking it so i will continue to work on it. If you read through the topic of the Tommy you proffer, the same thing was happening there. some people loved it, some hated it. But i would proffer if you gave some constructive criticism rather than saying its getting weirder and weirder, just something to think about next time!

Edgrd Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) @Cautious you are making some nice progress , the model was very great ! but i have to agree with _F_ , your model gets a bit weird , i would really suggest you to make your tommy looks more like the paintover 69_black_69 , because his paintover looks a bit more Tommy-ish. and i think you should improve the forehead of your model , looks very wide IMO. that's all , i hope my english is understandable.
