oh i forgot to mention
this is how im planning to model this guy:

ill make the basic low poly mesh (the head anyway) using surface tools
then use subd to add the details
ill probably use box modelling to do the body


can someone please tell me where can i get that edge tools plugin for max 3.1?? if you could it would be awesome :)

thanks

see you all later

MrMark,

Cool design, is that a horn growing into his mouth, or a tongue growing into his head? ;)

What's the background on this guy? Looks great.

Hey everyone
a small update.

this is the spline cage of my demon guy. this is actually just the surface modifier with 0 steps applied. cause i dont know any other way to display splines in a rendering. the lines are actually beziers but i dont know whether ill use them as i may just leave it as a 0 step surface and just apply the meshsmooth modifier, as it leaves a similar end result.
Issues that have arisen: firstly, a silly mistake - the center of the face, the line which should be vertical, isn't. lol. thats why the jaw is overlapping in the piccy.
secondly, a consequence of the first problem, the mouth is too wide, ie not circular.
thankfully both these issues can be resolved fairly easily, they just require pushing sum vertices around. nothing too painful.
also, this is just a mirror image of one half of the face, the end result wont be symetrical.

- Mr Josh, this is the story behind this odd looking fella -
this is the guy who works for the devil. specifically hes the dude who ticks your name off on the list to let you into hell, if your names not on the list go back to purgatory.(sorta like a night club only more twisted! haha like nanoneen and company's one) so yeah he just waits there at the gates of hell ticking names, but when the clubs full... he becomes.... the bouncer!

comments/crits/tips always welcome! dont be shy, come on in!

catch ya

i forgot!

this guy needs a name
ive got some ideas but i wanna see what you guys can come up with!
tito the gatekeeper? billy bob the bouncer?

it can be any name at all (as you can see from the above)
so yeah just hit me with some of the names youve got swirling around in those skilful heads of yours

For names, I usually stick to one of two formulas for my characters:

1. noun + adjective (or profession) + Scottish or Irish prefix + adjective (or a last name).

Examples - DogLicker McWanker, ShitKicker O'Malley, CarSifter MacDougal, SaltShanker McStubbs, etc., etc.

or

2. meat type product + pole of some type.

Examples - BeefRod, PorkStick, SoyShaft, etc., etc.

Occasionally I'll stray from the formulas if something strikes me but they're pretty good starting points usually.

Oh, I'm also fond of the name F*ckStick but I'm not suggesting that for your character, I'm just saying, I'm fond of it.

Let's see for your character, I'd probably go with the first formula, maybe something like, SpleenGrinder O'Finnigan or BileSpitter McMinimens.

haha tidy work meatycheesyboy!:D

heres an update peoples
sorry it took so long

if you want more piccys or mesh shots or whatever let me know

right now the face seems pretty neutral:o
i need to give him a more pained look, i mean he is in constant discomfort...poor fella:confused:

i need to add more details, not just the horns and folds in the skin where they protrude from, i mean stuff like wrinkles in between the eyes to exaggerate the expression and so on..

comments and crits always welcome!

What is the pink thing, I at first thought it was a horn from the drawing, but now I'm not so sure. If it is supposed to be a horn as well you should apply the same amount of modeling detail as the yellowish horn. It looks to me like an intestine right now.
Hey but that's cool.

None the less Nice start, keep going the clock is ticking. :grin:

so_hi:my initial intention was to have a sorta intestine thing as you say but my understanding is that it seems out of place, so i may replace it with a horn.. hmm... what are your thoughts??

so_hi
03-23-2002, 10:40 AM
I think if you were initially intending to make it intestine you should keep it intestine. I would just move the connection down into the neck or something, just so it is not connecting in the same spot as the other horn. Then there would be no confusion.

Hope that helps. :hmm:

Skip the yellow horn. Make two of those pinkish things.
We´ve seen a lot of horns but none of those things growing out of the mouth. They are a lot more interesting. Develop them.

mikael P.: I dont think ill have enough time to rework all the face so im gonna stick to the current design, i will however develop the single gut thingy growing out of his mouth, give it more detail, depth, what-have-you.

Wraith: I think im gonna make him a full tanky guy, either that or just medium build. He'll have a humanoid body though

well i started on the neck and chest people
its nothing to write home about at the moment, but ill refine it as time goes by
i need to study some anatomy

thanks for all your comments people! keep em coming!
