As I said with the 3D Pig Cop, it's based on the Duke Nukem action figures. So for a base texture i'm using a photograph of the Duke Nukem NS figure which has been (as you can see in the screenshot) UVW'd onto the 3d model in max. Though once i've edited it dramatically in zBrush and max, that texture will be scrapped and replaced with realistic skin/clothing.

Actually, the texture is more for referance atm- but, here's an image of the w/o texture, w/ texture and the image i'm working with for the texturing stage.

Thanks dude! Tomorrow i'll try to get a working exe where you can walk around or swivel the figure in realtime, but both the Pig Cop and Duke model still need a bit of zBrush'ing.

Thanks for the comments

And yeah, the face is smoothed quite a bit- i've started to build it more in this pic though -

Very nice man. Are you going to try to get this in the HRP?

Re: 3D Duke Nukem (NightStrike)
When I first saw the pigcop I was not very impressed, the shape looked ok but the whole thing looked a bit sloppy. Then I saw the other shot of the pig cop and the duke renders and I must say thats some awesome work. I would love to see what it would look like with a really good light setup and some nice plastic materials. Would probably be hard to distinguish it from the real thing.

I apologize if you never liked the first pigcop screenshot, but that was only after about an hour and a halfs work. But thanks for the positive comments on the other images.
At the moment i'm working on a few things like this- http://www.silentasylum.com/dn/q3d/ns1 ;
I haven't done more than 2 minutes work to set this up- but as you can see in this it's only the front bracket (also edges not correctly decimated) & I haven't bothered with the UV on this yet either. But it's just an example of what i'll be starting work on tonight to show the high res models off.

I've gotten a few people to go to the link and it checks out okay. I beleive the 3d loader only works in IE- so it won't load under other explorers such as Netscape. Sorry about this, I shall create an exe tomorrow.
