Yo all, Been working on this model for the last 2 nights. Looking for some opinions. Overall I think the proportions are right, however I think there's something missing with the head, tho I cant quite figure out what.  C&C welcomed.

Really great job kit, you managed to get the bone structure in the face anatomically correct, the only thing to comment on is that the earlobes could be lowered a few units. I also love the way you got the extruding eyebrowse; well done...but a pipe would do the trick even better than that cigar

Looks really good kit, well done. One thing that I think was better in the first post was the area around teres major to his triceps, but it's just a minor detail, nothing that someone busy launching rockets will notice anyway

too similar to copyrighted likeness Likenesses are not covered by copyright law, they fall into the domain of trademark and publicity right laws neither of which apply to this model as TTBOMK none of id's q3a models are trademarked nor are they celebrities. Rather than manufacturing a legal reason to not accept the model why can't you just say: "No, this sarge model is too similar to id's sarge model and that is not the art direction I want the game to go in."

Fair enough. I started modelling this on request by tr3b(well he asked me to make a model) and I choose Sarge as inspiration. I posted the model up here encase OA would like to use it & pointers on improving him. Hope I can still post WIP on the model here.  Yes the model will be released under the GPL. It's planned to be done in .md5 format first, however I'm planning to export him to .md3 later.

I think its a pretty good recreation of Sarge. Maybe if you made it into an anime model it would be acceptable for OA

Also as it's not specifically for OA you should consider a different license, something like the ISC license which gives everyone the right to use it (as long as they remember to reproduce the copyright and permission notice).

apt-get build-dep blender installs the build dependencies svn co https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/ blender-svn then run make
