Evilbleachman Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 I am not really a big fan of anime models like these but still good job. That guy's toes need some depth to them. Looks like he has flesh colored socks on. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowchikawowers Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Oooh! A new one! Hot diggity! Look forward to the daylight photos, will crit those. Good Lighting is SO important for color and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 The lack of depth on the toes is definitely due to the flash white-washing the image. The red tones between the toes are actually quite prominent in correct lighting. But thanks for the compliment. *grin* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utterkhaos Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Man these are amazeing I had one once and never got this detailed or good at them lol. Keep up the amazeing work I look forward to watching this thread lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Oh,.. and to answer your question about the eye,.. I have two choices. The model came with 2 heads. One with bandana up and the other with bandana down. Not sure which one I want to use. I also have a choice of arms. I'll post more on all of this as I start getting to that point. I only just noticed this. I have to say, I'd recommend keeping the eye hidden...freehanding a Sharingan would be a bastard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 And then there's the question of which sharingan eye? Regular or mongekyo? (probably spelled that wrong) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 morning daylight photo. not as bad, but still a bit bright. i'll tone them down tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Yeah, I agree. Got pretty damn close, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 ok,.. shaded them down a bit. Need more??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Nope, I'd say it looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Sadly, I got held up at work, and while there's still some sun in the sky, there's not enough to take a good pic. So I had to use the flash again. There's a bit of obvious color-shift. But still the over-all effect looks good I think. Though I was considering maybe painting in a bit "flatter" of a paint scheme. I'm wondering if the highlighting is too much, and if it might look better in a more solid "block" of color?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Personally, I think it's coming across fine now that you've toned down the pants...but I'm only one opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Alright then,.. next up,.. the arms. As I said before, I have a choice of arms. I did a bit of a "dry-fit" of the pieces and took a picture of each so that you guys can see the choices. First up,.. the "lazy kakashi" arms,.. There's actually a book that supposed to sit in his raised hand,... And then there's the "battle ready kakashi" arms,... (I'm sorta leaning towards these arms),..

edonil Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 The book is a long running gag in the story, he always has it. Anyway, I say go battle ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 How about the right arm from the battle ready set, and the left from the kakashi one? Then he can sing 'I'm a little teapot'... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webmonkey Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 If I were to do the book reading pose, I might swap out the teapot arm with the other left arm. But I think I'm doing the battle ready set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilbleachman Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Judging by the pose I would actually say go for the book pose. You can use him as a book stand. Or put him inside of a book. Books. Books everywhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_was_like_you Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Magnets so you can have both options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Magnets is a thought. Could possibly do the same thing with the head and both of them interchangeable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 There's an idea. I'd say go with the regular Sharingan if you decide to paint up the exposed eye, the other one is crazier if I remember right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 there's actually a picture of the mongekyo sharingan in the center of the base. here's the regular,... and the mongekyo,... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Hm. Nevermind, I guess the mongekyo would be easier, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmonkey Posted July 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Got the book arms done. Still working on the book itself though. Will try to finish the book and the bandana-down head tomorrow. Then I'll get a pic of the completed "lazy kakashi" before moving on to the "battle ready" set up. In the meantime,.. here's some more crappy night-time pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
