Allright...

I´ve decided to participate on this challenge since we still have one month until it ends.

I don´t know exactly what my character is. I´ve been modeling it for 3 ours on lightwave, and its begnning to take shape.

My modeling is based in some sketches I made, and as soon as I get my scanner working, i´ll post these skestches too.

Thanks

A little update. I´ve made some little corrections, tho the anatomy continues pretty mess.

I´ve also began the head in another layer. Those layers of lightwave are a real help... :)

Now at last I know what my character is going to be. "The devil from the hills of death" :surprised . The hills of death exists only in the dreams of the elven children. And to grow up every elf (man or woman) must confront with the devil within to reach the magnitude of their own blood.

Elven individuals that run away of this expirience become dark-elves. Elven individuals that can depare themself with their own "dark side" can grow normaly as a elf.

It´s nown that some times in the history the devil won, and them he could come to the real world and do a lot of real mess.

Well, thats it for now. :p

It has a Greek/Roman statue quality to it with that kind of hair. :) Very unique idea! :D

Looking good so far!

The hair looks very cool :) You've got some nice muscle definition, but it looks a bit cartoony. Is that the look you are going for? My main concern is that itty bitty waist would have a really hard time supporting that massive chest. However if he will be in really dynamic, cartoony poses, this wont be a problem at all. Keep workin', we've only got a few weeks left!!!!

Hey guys thanks for the replys.

Rye:

I believe i didn´t have any compromise with reallity wen I started modeling. I think this is pretty much the result I wanted to get, since I dind´t used any reference (only some drawings i´ve made).

I don´t think I was searching for a cartoony stile, but now that you´ve said it, I have to agree with you, it is a little. :drool:

Thanks for the comments, they are very usefull.
