Love the coloring. The ogre's face looks like Emperor Palpatine had a baby with Jabba's rancor.

[Geti]

Looks nice but hell, that are a lot of tris to call it super low-poly!
I guess you can cut it down to 30 and loose no significant details at all 

Maybe from the current render angles, but the details around the rocks would need to be preserved if the scene was going to be walked around in. I'd estimate 100-150 tris preserving everything important, which would be a serious reduction in any case, but also something I couldn't be bothered with for 1 hour test of the paint feature

Geti + Dr.Electro - both your work is a big inspiration to me.

Are you working on a game Geti? You've got a really consistent, awesome looking style; i want to play in that world!! It reminds me of Medievil which is one of my favorite PS1 games ever.

[Geti]

Are you working on a game Geti?

Sure am, but not in 3D. Check out kag2d.com - multiplayer building castles and murdering each other type deal. If you go on our forums there's a beta version available with much newer art and code, it's going properly public in a few weeks.

Glad to be at the point in my career where I'm an inspiration to anyone, especially in the PS1 glory days kinda way.

That all depends on what kind of game this would be used in, but yeah, 460tris for this is nowhere near lowpoly.

To be fair, he actually said super low-poly sculpt. For a sculpt, 460tries is pretty low.

Ah, yeah that's true. Usually going low-res with sculpts is pretty much inane since their purpose usually is to be baked onto a low-poly mesh anyway - but given the painterly approach I'd say it definitely could look really bad if the sculpt was too high-poly. He did show the tricount and mesh though, which is entierly superfluous and calls into question if this is just a sculpt or meant as an ingame-asset.

Edit: Just to be perfectly clear, I really like where it's going, and I find it hilarious that whenever geti posts something it's sort of relevant to something I'm currently working on in my spare time, it's like we're linked or something

[Geti]

It's 0.01x tri density of the initial messy sculpt to get the forms there, and sub 1k, when I've seen people displaying 700tri stones around on polycount, so i think lowpoly is relative; potentially applicable but sure, it's nowhere near "super" low poly and I'm sorry for saying so. I can happily retract that statement if anyone is seriously taking offense to it

It's not meant as an ingame asset, nor is it meant to look polished or fantastic, I just included the wires for completeness.

...Wish I'd had more time to tinker today, spent all of it coding autobalance stuff in a way that's generic enough to be plug-and-played rather than drawing or coding anything fun.

Made a face today. Didn't texture it though. I suck at texturing realistic.

Learning low poly. n_n

[biomechanic]

That one overlit face is a bit off-putting. Move the light, or adjust the shader, or maybe just go with unlit textures.
Other than that the rocks could get their own geometry for increased rocky bumpiness. 

@Greg Sergeant
Lovely. Do you use IK in your rig or just go straight FK? And how come there's no POV screenshot/gif with that fancy new gun?

Awesome! Have fun with it.

Wow thanks man, your stuff is great! Straight FK, i like to work fast
Screenshot: SOON!

this is really great, love the chunkyness of it!

This stuff is amazing, especially the gun  Is it possible for you to paste in the texture map? Would love to analyze it and maybe learn something

I decided to ditch normal maps and just do hand painted textures:



Also some animations in progress:

[ink.inc]

great work, reminds me of the hero of breath of fire: dragon quarter

@ Sandoval

Thanks, I'm so glad you see that! Tatsuya Yoshikawa is a HUGE influence in a lot of my work. Been a fan of his since Breath of Fire 3. Glad to see more people remember Dragon Quarter =)

 This guy just oozes character,really dig the little details in his outfit. You can really catch a lot of information about what kind of character he is just from the design choices, great job.
