Name: Rolf McSplosh
Age: 39

Rolf, part-time superhero. Rolf greatest talent is to convince people about things, atleast that is what he thinks. The only one so far he has been able to convince is himself.

Rolf believes he can become invisible, he really do. Unfortunately on every secret mission Rolf is assigned he is caught by the enemy.

Rolf is still alive beacuse his endless talk about his invisibility bores the enemy to sleep so he can get away.

Latest modelling progress


/edit

I've been lurking around for a long time in the forums, time to participate!

Darkness is what he fears the most, carrying around tons of flashlights, attatched all over the body! Concepts comming!

Good luck everybody!

Male, slightly overweight, tight superhero clothing, flashlights attachted all over, very clumsy due to the weigh of all flashlights.

A need tips to make those big fat lips, I'm playing around with no good results.

Btw I'm considering a new story for the character...

Maybe somehitng that he thinks he has this encredible cloaking ability,,, but he dont... always getting caught and when he claims he is invislible "YOU CANT SEE ME, LET ME GOOO",,, all badguys feel so sry for this character they let him go. His flaw keeps him alive.

yes yes, it is supposed to be a body... :wip: I'll have to look into how to create the nipples and and armpits. I'm also making some sketches from the scenario the character will be put in.

Not sure if it looks liek your clay but it looks goood :)

Yes yes I know. I sketch terrible therefore I though of doing a claymodel, mostly to be able to look at the nose from different angles, I'm thinking of doing the lips as big as they claymodel though, but so far the lip results have been less successful.

As I said Im doing some sketches atm that will show his final look, clothing and scenario.

the biggest problem of wiro's tutorial is, that he didn't model the head as if there is a skull in it... try to get the shape of the human skull under you model...
great work so far want to see the finished piece!
