Mortal Kombat HD Remix with MUGEN

View attachment 6105

everytime I think of an HD version of a mk stage, this is kind of what I think it should be, getting close to the original but adding soooo much more detail..


this is just something quick I did just to show my interpretation of what I think it should look like, this is just a collage, picture above picture.. I didn't want to make something good but quick.

sorry S4m that I made this because of you but I just needed to show what I think


edit:

sorry about the moon glow, it was less noticible but I duplicated the layers... just an error
great job, arq_hawkin!
I'm working on it

I don't know about you guys, but if you look very closely at the priest mouth in the original picture, he's wearing some kind of purple mask over his mouth. His hands should also be folded more and lower.
 
Hi uker. Thanks for the crit. I was really trying to get that lunging momentum effect going for it. I'm quite happy with it though so I think I will move on to the next one. Thank you though, your input is appreciated and considered.

Guys, keep up the good work.
@arq, very big progress on liu kang, can't wait to see more.
@Cal, you got the MKII font absolutely right, well done.
BTW, who's gonna animate Goro?
 
K, I'm done with this one, I'm tired of working on it, moving on to something else. The render was like 20 hours with the motion blur added... I can't wait for the day when you can render this stuff in real time.

great render, love those hands.. to me it looks perfect, just maybe some color correction to the frames... can you please provide me a render of the stage cause I think liu's intro movie was edited and the background was added later as la luna said.. I think it was him
 
Yeah, I'll add the file in drop box.

I'm not sure who will end up animating Goro. I can't do it right now because there's other work I need to finish. It'll be a long while before anybody get's to him.

That looks incredible.
The motion in the actor and the camera look spot on.

Should you ever do another take on it... the light lighting his face looks too low.
Look how in the original the light rarely lights up any higher than the bottom of his nose, the shadow even obscuring almost all of his face at some point, and being at about the height of his mouth in the final frame.
Here's something I just made.

I added some highlights on the hat and the left palm to reflect the new direction in the light.
While at it I also rotated the right hand's final position inwards a bit, removed that bulge on the edge of the palm near the base of the pinkie, and added some glow to the eyes.
I also turned up the exposure and lowered the saturation a bit.

All things said, beautiful work, man.

To be honest, I'm modeling goro just for practice, only uker have seen it, I love the old model made by cal but I'm modeling goro just for fun, I'm also adding my own touch to him and I think it's coming along pretty acceptable, if you want I can upload some pictures later...

PS: I'm not doing a carbon copy of the original.. Every time I see goro I remember the kraken from the original movie of clash of the titans LOL :P

I'm just trying to make the goro I've always wanted to see...
Cause to me... Mk9's goro is just a random dude with 4 arms, sorry NRS, your game is awesome but your models are not that great!!
 
Arq, I put a copy of Raiden's file in dropbox. Raiden's folder, so just grab it and take what you need from there. Delete the file from dropbox after to make room. The textures are not in the file, so it'll have a missing files error, but you don't need those for the room.

It's called "Raiden334.rar"

Hi Bleed,

Can you put the raw .pngs up on dropbox for me? I think the motion blur can be more accentuated. The animation looks incredible to me.
Just incredible work!
 
Hi Team,

I've started a 50GB Storage Box.com account since we are running out of storage on Dropbox. Let's keep the main game final files up on Dropbox but for large unfinished source files and transfers we can use box.com. I've invited the team to the new account.
