Merc -finished!!

The detail is great but they still look like shorts to me.

Look again.  In the shaded picture (the middle one) yes, they look like shorts.  Once they are taken into Mudbox (third pic) they are most definitely pants, but they have an odd shorts/pants hybrid thing going on that I really like.  Keep it up kebab.

Wouldn't it be better if there were kneepad straps covering the end of the "shorts"?

Thye don't look like shorts. They look like they are dual paneled to provide ventilation. Could be wrong but a lot of combat gear is built that way to provide some relief from the heat retention the layers of gear and body armor cause. Arms and legs are the most common spots for these types of ventilation as your extremities bleed off heat naturally and the clothing is designed to take advantage of that.

No, I know that they are pants (obviously the 3rd pic shows it and kebab even said so), that's why I said they look like shorts.  I should of clarified and made it more clearer.  I realize that he is going for a certain look, but even with the pictures he provided - I'm just no into that style.  Like I said before, I'm sure the finished project will look awesome so I'm not too worried about it.

its an untextured model,  so you react to the obvious lines on the shaded model.  I know why they look like shorts, but i am not concerned once this gets onto the finished model.  It is supposed to look like a seam when it is done.

Could they somehow have vented armor/helmets/ shoes instead of pants?  I just think it looks kind of silly. :-\



I kind of like the way this armor looks vented.

Any recent updates to the current model of the merc?
Last time I checked he looked like this...

[Farley4Fan]

^ that looks okay.   The only problem with it is that the head is it bit too round and the face isn't covered.  I wish you would cover up the face kebab, but I am sure whatever you will do it would look great.

[goodkebab]

that is not the latest update.

[Wanted_David]

that is not the latest update.

Please post the link to the latest model of the merc.
