I love blank 3D models for the same reason I love black & white sketches; colour is nice, but with a blank slate you can really see the detail that went into these characters.

And this is why I wouldn’t make a good 3D modeler... I’m terribly impatient. I know this was probably done in z-brush, but even sculpting something this detailed would take more time than I have patience for. Especially for a video game where it all gets baked into a bump map and trimmed out. Fucking awesome though. Damn.
