Undead king's armor

[dandan]

Here is the head of the undead king. I need to smooth it out here and there, but it's almost done. I hope you like it.. :hmm:

[dandan]

I did'nt had much time yesterday, i have no internet at home :sad: , so i could only work on the leg. I want it to be a lot more skinny, but i also want some muscles to be defined. It needs a bit more work, but the muscle proportions on the leg are almost done. Except the foot of course. I will make one side of the body a bit different after i collapsed the stack.
Noone is willing to write me, did i do something wrong? I hope my model is not that bad.. :sad:

Showing alot of promise so far. Looking good. :thumbsup:

Oh. I like the head! Undead? Is he going to be decaying and stuff

like that?

cheers

[dandan]

Yes, actually i want his face and body to look a bit rotten. It sure will get a very different look after texturing, and after i exported it into zbrush.
Now i only work on the modeling, i don't have too much time, maybe i can make bigger improvements at the weekend. Till then i post the arms, wich are going to be thinner too, and just like the legs they will also have some muscle definition on them. A lot of work to do, especially on the hand, but i only roughed out the basic forms.. :hmm:

ps.: thanks for your posts! :)

I was busy at the weekend with learning zbrush, and did actually get pretty far. That meens also that i did not had time to work on my model too much, but i've done some tweakings. I smoothed the head a little bit, and worked out the skin at the cheek bones. I also roughed out the torso. It still needs a lot of work, but for me it looks already better. Maybe i will take it into zbrush for further imrovements... we'll see. :)

good work! i like the head too. good concept for the armor. :thumbsup:

[dandan]

And again some update. I tested some posing, and he behaved pretty nice i think. This is just a test rigging, i have some problems with the envelopes. And still no textures as you can see, but that will change in several... years maybe. Damn unwrap. :argh:

[mikkamakka]

nice updates! i would attach the armor with chains and hooks to the body, that would look great! :)

[dandan]

Thanks Haraldus! About the chains: thats sort of what i wanted to do. A bit like in hellraiser, and i wan't to add some clothing, but i'm not sure about what kind it shall be. Maybe something like a mummy. We'll see. C&c anyone?

Hi!

I played a bit with the UV mapping, and i can tell you, it was pure pain. I'm not sure about the colour texture, i want something simple. A made the bump ( in ZBrush, and placed it on an earlyer stage of my character that i set up with a biped to test the streching of the maps: bump1 (http://www.imagehosting.us/imagehosting/showimg.jpg/?id=329401) , and bump2 (http://www.imagehosting.us/imagehosting/showimg.jpg/?id=329398) . I made his crown too. I want to keep it simple, so i'm not going to take any model into zbrush, its complex enough for me. crown (http://www.imagehosting.us/imagehosting/showimg.jpg/?id=329403)
Someone c&c?

Hi again!

Almost missed those links! The bumps are looking great. I follow this thread since the beginning, and like it a lot. :)

[dandan]

Hello again! Or should i say hello haraldus.. :) Maybe this isn't the hottoest thread of all.. Here is a link to a composition (http://www.imagehosting.us/imagehosting/showimg.jpg/?id=346760) i made. I hope you like it. I make some major corrections but this looks much like i wanted it to be..
I'm not sure about the texture color, i tried a few, but i don't like them. Maybe some light blueish color? Any suggestions?

[devailo]

great. i think the armor is perfect for the undead but can you post warger pictures.
That is all.
