The Frog

Post by theycallmechad »

I LOVE how this turned out. I spent a long time on it, and even used one of my cherished seamless textures I made for Halo 2.

Thoughts?

It doesn't really look like the frog is on the ground/wall/roof/swimming pool. To be honest, I'm kind of lost when I try to think of much critique for it. I mean for the most part you got what you were trying to do and you did it right..I just don't like the image. :p

Hmmm... I see what you mean. There is a bit too much shadow under the left foot of the frog, making it look like it's suspended there. I'll see what I can do to fix it.

Here was the original, just for the sake of showing it:

I don't really like the Bevel/Emboss on the frog. The rest looks good. Maybe try hand shading the frog? It's worth a shot. Overall it's pretty cool.

I like it.

A little too much plasticy and bevel, but it's still nice.

I actually did make a hand-shaded frog, but not with this version. I have 2 updated versions, so I'll see if I can get around to uploading them soon.

EDIT: Here they are:

And my new background...

And I'm glad it looks plasticly. I wanted that :D.
