Some more progress: to texture or not to texture :)

Here it is with less sharp focal length: And this one should be "realistic" (Angle of view in Zbrush 25): Any image can't be just "copied", as You do not know focal length of the camera, especiallly from those old photos...

Yes, some of the mentioned differences are because of viewing angle, and focal length,but some are valid. Thanks !

Easy guys... :) What I would like to know is Your opinion about the face Oda. But give it straight - without sarcasm please - I might not understand it at first reading :) :) :)

Sure, but it is painted under glass (not relief), so it should not be sculpted in... only painted. :) At least that was my impression. but now looking at Your photo, You might be correct. And there is even more difference, my star is not flat... will fix that. Thanks !

Playing with this one lately ..

Jack, This is printed and casted. The badge is hollow, but not very deep, and this is phone pic. It is there but not as sharp as it should be :) I am not going to print this one again, just wandering if I can get the money I put into it back, so I can print some different one :) Regards !

I finally have a couple of these casts ready: The parts are just "connected" with patafix, but it shows how the whole thing looks like. If anyone is interested, I estimated the price to 25 EUR, drop me a message here, maybe I can sell just enough to get money for the next print ? :)...

Printing and casting this would be a blast, and nightmare, and thrill, and headache and so on... :) Great work Kaz !

I do not get it... why is that belt so ridiculously complicated ???

Started playing with textures...

Maybe something like this...

Here is the rest of the "composition", but beside head and Garand it is still very rough: As usual, crits, suggestions etc. appreciated :)

It is based on a fake WWII photo: But since older soldiers were very rare in pacific, I decided to go with younger face, and use real WWII USMC photos for uniform details. Also I would probably add some pouches hanging over shoulder (he is in the water so protecting ammunition to get...

Time to push this to finish... Since the old face was obvious mistake, first I made a new face for him:

Thanks Nap. Always kind and supporting, the good spirit of PF :)

Yap, it really suck. A good printing service that does not charge too much (and I can't pay much as I am producing only a few copies) is hard to find :( But even without printing this is endless fun, and I learn something new every day :)

I have no idea, since my favorite printer service closed their business :( I have to find a new one... Or if anyone is interesting of producing it, I am giving it away for free, as long as that someone promises it will be produced.

Over and out, thanks to everyone for helping...
