Beast of Burden - character - Levius

[Roman]

You got the same animal combi as me! ;) Both concepts look totally different though.
Not sure about the long front legs, maybe a bit shorter?

[lildragon]

NIce, this is a nice hybrid - retro type bull :) I like the angle, are all of those steroid pumps? :surprised

a su salud

[Mr. Nice Guy]

You're concept looks cool. I hope he looks very agressive with those things on his back.

Waiting to see more

[levius]

Roman : I like big front legs :), they will be the main moving device of it :)

Lildragon : Steroids are only in front ones, rest is fulled with mixture of glucose, vitamins and amfetamins :)

Mr. Nice guy : Thanx, looking for more from you too :)

Here is new study of head, however I am not sure about it, so I will resolve it during modeling....

[levius]

Finaly started to model. I will leave head for now and start to model body.....

I really love anything that's bio-mechanical. You definetly tweaked my sweet spot with this one. I also like the muscle definition you have in the limbs. Great stuff so far. :thumbsup:

[levius]

Thanx Zro-1 :), here is new screenshot especialy for you :

[Mr. Nice Guy]

It looks good, it follows good your reference.

Yeah go one.:buttrock:

[Jacko Cohen]

:hmm: dunno if it's only me
but the gas-mask reminds me a lot of Ambient's dragon/tiger thingee.

You've got a cool design otherwise. keep it yp.
:wavey:

[ZrO-1]

I don't think that that's a gas mask. I thought it was some sort of bit or mouth-piece. :shrug:

[levius]

Jacko :

Yes I know this tiger, and I like it a lot. However I was more inspired by "wasteman" picture by Hanno Hagedorn.

[Scott Guns]

Besides, everyone has to do a gas-masked character. Isn't it part of the rite of passage for modelers?

Keep going man. It's looking good.

[Icecube]

Hey man first thanks for your post, secound i like the design of your beast a lot nice head i wanna see more, keep in touch!

really great job!

Started to work on muscles, its quite hard becouse its first time I am trying something like this, on the other hand its lot of fun once you dive in it :thumbsup:

I would like to have lot of definition in this character in "Simon Bisley style".

[Rex]

Nice model there! Good and clean.

Keep up the good work!:thumbsup:

[ZrO-1]

really awesome details on the shoulder muscle (is that the deltoid?). That is going to be fantastic if the rest of your BoB's musculature comes out that well.

[neofotistos]

a-we-so-me! my friend Peter, this forum will bow down to you when it's done

:bowdown:

[levius]

Rex, BrainFaucet : Thanx :)

ZrO-1 : Yes its deltoid :), I am glad you like it, I will add more detail soon...

Christos : Thanx for funny Icon I was laughing about 5 minutes when I first saw it :)

Ok, so this is my latest update. I decided to keep it "low poly" becouse I like the "Cubism" look of unsmoothed polygons :)

[levius]

:bounce: I really need some feedback in this stage, please write me your opinion. Which way shoud I go? What you like/dont like about my BOB. Is it good idea to leave it unsmoothed? ..

Thanx :)

[Mattman]

are u using maya? you'll probably want to smooth it....but that's usually last. if you're using maya, check out the connectPolyShape tools. u might have to add some resolution on the low-rez model u have now, but it's a handy tool......

i like the muscles, can u show a side view or more of the model?

gas masks rule :buttrock:

[levius]

Thanx for reply Matman.
In fact I am using CPS right now (only for mirroring) Its strange but I like the unsmothed model better than smoothed :) I think that If iI will add more details it will be ok to submit it to chalenge, what is your opinion?

Here is one older screenshot from side, my Maya just crashed yesterday and I got to reinstal it now :(

[TES]

Hi Levius.....good job man......i like it´s muscles-great!Go on:thumbsup:

[Mandrake]

Its coming well, i'll keep my eye on this
It's normal to the mesh at that stage to look
better unsmothed. It takes some spliting and
tweaking but just keep going you'l get there.
Your edge flow is good also. I also have an
ultra muscular BOB you can check it here:

I like this arm .... big muscles man :thumbsup:

[Mandrake]

Hey i just saw you mention Simon Bisley on a first page.
That guy triggered me for crazy mucles on my BOB.
got any updates?

[Daxx]

Nice BOB But i have just seen this Gas MAsk :rolleyes:

[levius]

Bisley and gas mask RULEZ :love:

[Joebount]

Update please :) :thumbsup:

[levius]

I wanted to give it uo becouse I got so much work I have to do in my job :(... Anyway I decided to try to finish it, there is quite small amount of worrk I need to do, so I hope I will finish it in time.

Thanx Joebount

[levius]

I need to ad more details, big boulder behind, pose it and I am done :)

[Maxko]

Levius... wow. Smooth please... smooth please. It look like very very good "anatomic" modelling. Levius... Please.... Smooth :) :)

[levius]

Thanx Maxko :), but I am not going to smooth this one, I like this
"Cubism" look of this piece :arteest:

[TES]

hey Levius:)) you have done it:)) it´s really good model,but i think it needs to be smoothed.......

[levius]

Thanx Tes. Here is the final version. And I really want it this way, no smoothing no colors :cool:

[Maxko]

Levius... :applause:
Really nice beast. Really.

(mali by sme to ist oslavit co povies ??? :cool: :beer:

[ZrO-1]

Hey Levius, you did an excellent job on this piece. I think it's cool that you are leaving it un-smoothed, but just for the heck of it, could you post a render of your final version?
Great work and excellent craftmanship. :applause: :thumbsup: :applause:

[Mandrake]

looking at wire I would say a lot of things were built to
be unsmothed.. so keep it like that.. dont take it off if
it doesn't look good smothed.. congrats on a finished
piece.:beer:

[Drongo Stabbins]

Excellent Levius!
Really good form and dynamics!:thumbsup:

[levius]

Thanx guys, I am really glad you like my simplistic "CUBISM" style . :arteest: Tere is so much great works in this chalenge... I am just going trough every one and backuping the pictures :applause:

[erilaz]

Very very cool Levius. Great model, and brilliant style of presentation!:airguitar

It would be cool if you could download a pack of all the final submissions so you wouldn't have to go through and save them all! :p :D

Anyone willing? Moderators? :wavey:

[My Fault]

Woooo, that is sweet. I love the definition on the forearms. Fantastic piece!

[Maxko]

your beast have sex legs :) and sweet arms :)

[levius]

MAXKO: I didnt know that you like my bob "THAT MUCH"
:)

[migusan76]

Most say that the model is looking Amazing, keep it up :applause: :thumbsup:

[PokeChop]

Great BOB Levius! The detail! Wowsers!

Also wanted to say I love your Lord Flleisshenberg portrait on your website too! It reminds me of my Jack Russell, Eddie, when he doesn't get his way. I've seen those teeth up close and personal.

Excellent work seriously though Levius! You work in 3DS Max correct? Keep it up...
