The man with the Machine gun

hardcore fans know exactly who this title's about.

Not "such" a Final fantasy 8 Fan, but the reason is not cuz I didn't like it, but because I disliked the fact that you don't get to play with Laguna/Kyros/Ward at the End of the game, I mean, COME ON, Square had the perfect excuse, Time Colapses (or however you call it), and Laguna could become yong again and enter your team (I was 70% sure this was going to happen first time I played, before the end of the game), but NOooooo... let's just leave the best FF character out of it cuz he's way too cool.

reference image:

Yet, I think there's some considerable diference betwen facial details of the in-game Laguna and the CG images (and no I'm not not talking about poly count), just find the in-game Laguna more friendly, I'll try to follow the in-game one from now one.

Current Progress:


obs.: keep in mind that some portion of the hair will of course be skinned on the head (like at the forehead's cornes and around the ears)


Still finishing a previows project, namek race (I'm either gonna pause it or give it away (just not turning out what I expect, half comments I get are people requesting sayans, you just dont know how efficiently you can harm a modeler's feelings ;P ). (It's really only missing icons & colors icons, I'm the one who doesn't feel like bothering with it anymore...)

EDIT.: sorry for the thumb, by the time I finished writing this post, imageshack's managment page went back to work (wich wasn't when I started)

ps.: somebody remind Inyri she's supposed to continue her the Galbadian Solder xD

Looks great >.> Cant wait to see it finished. Im skinning a Rinoa (or i should be >.> im like lazy and ant worked on it in a few days lol) Seems like a good number of FF8 mods popping left and right lately.

I know you said your going more for in-game Laguna.... but that one looks like the FMV one.... its a great start though, the hair is near perfect!

BTW, I've seen your Namek race elsewhere, it looks nice actually.

[Gir_teh_Almighteh]

doesn't look Asian enough...

[Inyri Forge]

It's a good start. Keep working on it.

Is this the season for Final Fantasy VIII? Has the craziness that was 7 left us? Probably not, but I hope this gets done. And Inyri, continue the Galbadian Soldier.

[Anson992]

That sounded sort of demand like..... let me try again.....

[ass-kiss]Inyri, would you be so nice as to continue your soldier if you see a need to? We would all love to attain it and slice up people knowing that the excellence that is the model has spewed only from your imagination and cunning....[/ass kiss]

Seriously, we would like it if you did, but the choice is yours....

[Inyri Forge]

I'll finish it eventually. I'm just very busy this summer so things come along slowly.

Progress:


very small stuff done to the head's polies this far, nearly nothing, but spent afternoon on head's texture. (maybe should make eyebrows larger) (ears are uvmaped, just not textured yet). enough for today =.= ...Zzz...

[Anson992]

Looks nice, would be great had you done the ear.... but get your rest... You did good. My little brother thinks the nose is a tad too big. I think the eyebrows look good though.
