[DarlingtonLilsatan]

Is the tank inspired by metal slug by any chance?? , class model btw

[TheSoldierofPeace]

How and where do they get those cool songs? I've seen many Modeling Reels from VFS and It's often cool music with!

[ViggetheGroda]

Niice :D

[Alaric87]

Absolutely fantastic.

From both a modeling and texturing point of view; exactly like real models.

Well done, I'd never have thought this was possible :P

[nosaj462]

To all of you who praised my work and came to my defense thx guys i really appreciate it!!! One last thing...the picture of the elephant man was just a pencil study I by no means meant any harm. I have the utmost respect for joseph merrick and how he dealt with life and his situation.

[nosaj462]

The ideas were drawn from inspiration. Metal slug and Warhammer were my main sources as well as many others. Every GOOD artist uses reference. I by no means copied anything. I took ideas and mashed them all together to make this. The comment about not running on a 360 or PS3..... I made my reel hiRes to get work doing hiRes models. It landed me a job at BLUR studios and if you dont know their quality of work you dont know much at all.

[nosaj462]

Ok ..wow.. i just saw this for the first time on here and I had no idea it was posted the school must have put this up. Im also shocked at how some people attacked this saying these were not my ideas. My goal for my reel was to develop a stylized look that is short fat and stubby characters.

[Jakhama2mcmetz]

impressive stuff man,

[AdeonC]

oh my GOD

[soapisyummy]

do you no my brother nickolas froese

[raytraced999]

one day!!! one day i'll get to this level! if not...would someone sponsore me to go to that school. i'll sign a contract stating that i would give a third of my pay for the rest of my life!

[vdragon88]

They're showing off their modelling skills. All you need is reference pictures or an ortho. The fact that he or she can rebuild this entire thing in 3dsmax, maya, or any other software is amazing.

[gearshifter169]

that's basically what i was trying to get to, but he didn't reply lol. i was like ... wait a sec, I've seen those before...L2 make your own ideas

[u5tin]

This guy also likes WH40k! Respect in an every aspect!

[gearshifter169]

Are you taking credit for thinking of these yourself or are you just doing Modeling & Texturing from other things?

[someguy5645]

Thats mean how you put the elephant man in there.

[Knowpeace182]

what the heck are you talking about man? Even if the elephant man was in this video (which he's not) it wouldn't mean anything. This is a demo reel meant to show the artists skill at modeling and texturing.

[someguy5645]

2:43 the picture to the left... I know what its meant for, I just think its kind of mean..

[Easyvue]

you think a drawing of the elephant man is mean? no, this is mean: you're a retarded fucking pussy who should die painfully in a fire.

[someguy5645]

...

[mefrombelgium]

hewas in there but he was on the pic were the rockbeast is to,and indeed it doesnt mean anyting

[raytraced999]

lol

[torunamok]

Beautiful models there. As emptythetill says, those who are slating this clearly have no idea what goes into creating 3d models of that standard. Whether you like the style of the art or not, the quality of the finished product is fantastic.

As for the PS3 comment, YUPchannel should stick to playing games rather than even trying to understand what goes into creating models for one.

[emptythetill]

To the people slating this guy, you have demonstrated your ignorance well. If I was hiring right now I'd interview this guy. The modeling is beautiful, the texturing is stunning. This reel demonstrates everything I look for in a modeler. And hey, 14 years in Visual Effects gives me the right to say I know more than you, ok.

As for the comment about running in PS3, do you have any idea what goes into modeling for next-gen? Sorry, don't actually need to answer that do I, it's obvious.

[zenrigar]

i bet this guy love Metal slug games *cough* tank *cough*

[ahrimian]

terrible.

[tadhg2]

WOW VERRY WELL DONE !!!!

I LOVED THE WARHAMMER-ESK FEEL TO IT !!!!

5 stars !

[Jeejeela]

Nice graphics and things but this one was semi-boring.

[then00blet]

wow.....

[YUPchannel]

Yea I like to see these no touch hi-res texture models run in a PS3 console,.. NOT!!! How about 1 fph (frame per hour) in a PS3 console, lol!

Livewire- :P

[ToasterTurtle]

really nice work, and the style was very cool!

[TAMMERA59]

AWSOME WORK!!!!!

[ladex142]

Damn! that's awesome.

[ahrimian]

How is it awesome? It's like some shit WoW produced. It's shit. The tank is horrible looking, the priest is too short, and it's just really gay looking and looks ripped from WoW to serve the fantasies of 7 and 8 year olds.

[ladex142]

Look, there are different categories an artwork falls into. I think the final look goal is not to aim for a natural photo-realistic but a Cartoony look, sort of like the look of Metal-slug game (i think that that's where the inspiration came from). Dude, on what basis did you think that the work is bad ? That is an awesome work, it's highly detailed and i believe that the artist's aim/look or vision was well delivered!

[jamsession3421]

What the-oh my geez!
