[flamedevil]

C&C are welcome

[flamedevil]

No crits...:shrug:
I'll update this evening or night.

more space imbetween the nose and the eyes. Round out the eye-sockets a little more. I like how its coming out though.

[Flog]

I am forever gonna think of this creepy creature everytime I see a mosquito. Thank you for the nightmares. Nah seriously, WIP looks like its coming along

Nice to see an original idea. I get so sick of the Gollum and Star Wars posts

[flamedevil]

Grosserfrosch : yep you're right about it, i fixed that on the new version.

Flog : tnx i see what you mean :)

Here a lil' update before i die on my chair...
I fixed the eyes, revisited the proportion and i sarted the body ( but it need a lot of work...)

[flamedevil]

Okay, i started the body this evening, it's a bit hard because i don't have references for it, i have to imagine it with help of the minimum that i can see...hope you like it :)

I'm nto much of a modeler, but i'll review it some if it'll help.

The eyes in the sketches (nice sketches by the way) have a slanted look, whereas in your image they are level.

The crease that runs up the edge of the nose should not be there, it should blend until the point it hits the nostril.

The forehead needs to come forward more.

The mouth needs creases, right now it is just too smooth and round looking. The corners especially need to be shaped.

Not sure that is very much help, but i tried for ya!

Great beginning.

[flamedevil]

Heya, i'm back !

thesaint : tnx for the reply, you're right about the loop on the mouth. it's not an exact copy, as you can see, the body is invented, i'm not trying to get a perfect copy but just an approximative style of the character...

I have too much work for school so i can't work a lot on the model.
But here a little update, tell me what you think.

well...nobody see the post, what happen ? Come on guys, c&c are welcome :buttrock:

I think your model has potential to be really good. If you are trying to make this character menacing like a mosquito, you should consider using triangular shapes rather than cute round shapes. It makes him look very hugable, if you see what I am saying. Right now it looks like a fairy, and if that is what you're trying to achieve, you're on the right path. Good job!! oh, one more thing, I'd like to see those wings attached somwhere, maybe a bony structure at the base of the wings.

robingfx : Tnx for your comments, I see what you're saying but i want to keep the same character that have the mosquitos in the manga.
Those mosquito are gentle, they help the main character during the story, they're kind of fairy...

You're right about the wings, i'm going to addsome details on the base before animate it.

The render is going to be very hard, i would keep the same ambience than the manga, sober with no much color...I think i'm gonna render it in cartoon style...

I'll update soon :)

[mactabilis]

maybe his mouth should be smaller..

[vizion]

kewl, another blame! character. So far, i think u've captured the character well. Keep going and let's see it textured..Since the comic is all black and white , it would be interesting to see what color scheme you will adopt.

[golem]

nice job. as u can see the face, but not only it, is more detailed.
try to subdivide the mesh and work a bit more, ok?

do you know where i can find others blame characters in there?
post me the threads please
