First of all Happy new year to all the members of CGTANTRA, well this is my latest and last personal Work for the year 2007, this year was filled with lots of work and Life changing moments in my life which i will never forget and of course also a big step in terms of professional boost.

The image i have created is the first character in my story (two more to come!)...i really enjoyed doing this character as i was also experiencing a lot of unique patterns in my life.The character is always fighting with lots of personal problems in life regarding Money,fight with love and Gangsters also a unseen threat.in this image i tried to capture him lost in deep thoughts about the unclear future.

Modeled Using 3dsmax,Mudbox Textures in photoshop and rendered using Brazil.

:clap: WOW!:clap: ...just one question how much how much of this is photoshopped ???? nice photoshop skillz :D Wirezz plzz or even the screenshot of the model in mudbox of wat ever this is done in??...

[samar vijay]

cool work man..
acutally even m having some doubts @ faraz_mobin
like the money roll in his hand looks quite awkward and the lips and eyes r lookin a bit strange ,m sayin this becoz its doesnt match with the lighting as compared to the rest of the scene.
m attaching the image in this reply on some areas where m having some doubt.plz correct me if m wrong.

samar AND faraz wish u a very happy new year heres a max screenshot..for both of u as you requested. as for the shadow i agree its not casting properly.as for using photoshop yes i have used it to comp render layers and to tweak brightness contrast and if u guys think my work looks like photo thanks a lot ...lot of other people in my awesome company here think the same! i credit also brazil rendering system for its powerfull shaders and sss.enjoy any more comments are always welcome

i thought the hair was HAIRfx and a scuplt?i duuno man i c alot of this like the dollar rolls have less bills in them ,rather than the one in render that has 3 of em sticking outa them

dude WIREFRAME and the SCULPT image...not a 3dsmax shaded viewport...anyway its so obvious that even this is photoshoped ...notice the little dot in air..any way wire frame will show me exactly how much is geomerty and how much is photoshopped..hey its ok to photoshop details..but just let us know wats photo and wats mesh! ;)

[jayraj_kharvadi]

hey good work. texturing looks great.:clap:

[ThunderStorm]

Nice work dude

[Subhendu]

No doubt... really really great work. Modeling is excellent which I have seen in your mesh preview image.

Really love that there is no single triangle... complete quad poly mesh. Really nice work. Texture and rendering is also impressive. :)
