Panday (Classic) 3D UPDATED

here is my 3D rendition of the original Panday, by the late Fernando Poe Jr.
Forgive me if I do not do the character justice, its hard to get any decent reference images.
I wanted to recreate the original "younger version" FPJ- lean and mean.
I am still new to Maya, the character may be a bit off at some parts, critiques and comments are welcome
its still a WIP but almost complete. needs your inputs na lang.


Title: Panday
Software: Maya, mental ray, ZBrush


above is a closer look
Made a mistake in the render settings, the shadows at the torn sleeves cast wrong transparencies.
I used Maya fur for most parts of the hair, Some parts used Maya Hair.
I think my SSS settings were a bit off, so the facial details did not come out.


Above is the Low Poly version for game use. around 5k+ tri polys.


here is the maps used for it. 2 maps lang used... wala pa specular/diffuse maps, etc maps.

I will post a rigged and posed images as soon as i can make it. hopefully with proper scene background and lighting conditions.

Thanks for viewing

Thanks, I appreciate the positive feedback. hirap mag gawa ng existing character kasi may comparison, But we try our best.

Thanks Man! Maya, Zbrush, Photoshop gamit ko, still many more things to learn....

No offense meant to those who commented on how strikingly similar this rendition is to the real hero. But lemme say - gee something isn't right. Go figure. Either its the standard by which that comment was based upon, my eyes or yours, or were just tipsy.

That aint going to help no one. So let's try and nudge the standard reality a bit and go serious:

The problem with mimicking major icons in 3d is simple. Either they look like the real one or they don't.

People here have already commented about the physique, arms length, hair etc. But I'd rather not dwelve on your edgeloops or your polygon counts as they aren't really a matter of concern for me.

While I have read your disclaimers, the biggest issue I have is that it doesn't look like FPJ. And I know that was acknowledged beforehand. It looks like some 3d impersonator character mimicking FPJ. Forgive the pun if that was indeed the objective. (and you can then forego the rest of my posts...)

This strikes me most and I know how difficult it is to copy real subjects ( we work on major pro-wrestling titles for more than five years now) and it takes a lot of discipline and careful preparation to comeup with good virtual copy of a real character). I can emphatize that it is indeed a REAL and highly demanding profession. Either you make em look like the real thing or you're out of job.

Which brings me to a point. If you cannot afford to go stylistic or fictional, don't ever start with less or inferior materials of the ORIGINAL as reference . Because if you do - your work ends up in the same way (not the technical part) but in how they look compared to what you were aiming at.

It's like coming up with a pepsi cola, when the client was asking for coke. They may quench the thirst for some people , but they aren't the same thing...

I do not mean to discourage nor destroy the motivation - as a matter of fact its the opposite. I'm looking at a client standpoint while in the in-house director's shoes (So this isn't specific to the TS but something I want to impart to all of you young minds out there). Do something for a reason and do it perfectly well.

In my unsolicited mind, this rendition or anyone's rendition of FPJ will be FPJ even if you aim photorealistically or stylize it as long as they maintain the visual aspects specific to that character. In short, ONLY if one makes em look like the real thing. Unfortunately, I feel that the current image is still a long shot.

As for the comparison thing, that's the hurdle that bundles with the choice to make a real thing, either make it perfect or not at all.


Just my two yen.

Galing sir ng model ninyo. Keep it up! Inspiring po.

galing!

sana medyo galit/seryoso dapat ungmukha para mas action ang dating

Ang GALING mo Tol... Super....
