This is my first post to any forum what so ever, so here goes...
This character is to be modelled in lightwave 3d. I know i like the idea of having turoise shells on her as a means of protection, but i was interesting in any ideas for armor, such as leathers, that wouldn't contrast too much with a nomadic look. Please leave some input, her head is massive i know:p

Ingenius idea. The plant (flower) generate oxygen for the character while the character give out carbon dioxide for the plant. Very scientific here.:D

Heh.. i thought the flower providing oxygen to the gal was kinda funny so i added it, I should begin modeling her after i come up with a reasonable solution to her lower bod and weapon. Thanks for the post

I love it! clever idea with the oxygen tank! I really think that a SLING SHOT for a weapon would suit this character! I really, really do! I have a cool looking one that may give you some ideas but I can't scan it:( I'll send you a pic when and if I find one.

Hmm I think you should start modeling her and take it from there to decide the rest. Unless you can model super fast, not much time left.:p

I took your advice and started to model her. The head is in beginning stages, kinda looks like and old woman or a man, which is not what im really goin for, but i should have enough time to get something decent out.

Quick update, i hope i can finish in time, i have a lot of free time this coming week, so hopefully i will be able to finish the lass. Here is the body so far, im modeling adding medium details at the moment, but once i finish the whole model i will tweak all the flaws to the best of my ability. Plz leave some imput on proportions muscles, lighting suggestions etc.

Hi, Natsuko! good start! You may want to make the legs closer together and move the nostrils closer to the center. Also where the pectorals meet the deltoids could be thicker.

Keep workin'! I want to see her finished! ;)

Keep it up. Pixelfairy has given you very good tips to improve on the model. Keep working!
