I've been working on this over the last couple of days trying to finish off a half finished model from a while back. I've pretty much done the UV mapping and now it's on to the texturing. C:-)

I've favoured finishing off an old model rather than pursuing an idea I posted here last week, basically because of time.

Comments and crit welcome. I don't mind if you take it apart with a fine comb, but just remember it's not textured yet! :)

It's not my character this time. Its taken from the Anime series Bubblegum crisis 2040. The feet are a little hard to see from that angle, but she does have them. It's just the style really. I used some reference material from an art reference site.

i like the bubblegum crisis chars, and i think you've done a good job with it so far :)

textures will really add to it as well, and animation would always look cool too

I find mapping UV's to be the most challenging part, but I think that would hold true for most 3D apps. Just requires a bit of patience :)

Mostly finished I think. I uses a bit of artistic license with the texturing. Linna's suit was originally green and pink, but I think green and yellow work better together.

The joints... all joints deform how I wanted except the hips and the shoulders. The shoulders I could spend a few more polys on, but the hips I think I'll have to adjust the rigging itself. Because I don't have alot of time to spend at the moment I won't be fixing the deformations and animating it. :(

It appears ironikart never specifically said this because you guys still keep asking him/her... That is a 3D model he/she has created of a character from an anime called Bubblegum Crisis 2040. Hence the title of this thread.

And it really does look great :thumb:. I've got to try to get myself into 3D modelling... I have 3ds Max but I just can't get myself into it like I was able to with Photoshop :-\.
