The Hapless Hero - Character - Dun

[jorgelescale]

hey that is nice for the start,
but, what are u calling your character, a hero or a villian?
the idea is nice, but i dont know if its necessary to attach him a super hero weapon or custom, just dont know, any way just a point of view, and have to say that your skills seem to be very professional ones!:scream:

I cleaned up the face and added the geometry for a shower cap.

I love the original drawing - very School House Rocks meets 80's cartoons. The only thing that I would suggest, and that is because your modeling is flawless, is that one would want a hint of HERO in the Haplless Hero Contest. What I mean to say is that if you ripped away the name of OCD-MAN, he could be easily seen as just a boy cleaning.
I would think strongly about making him a boy as opposed to a man (cause he looks like one, and I would keep that - there are a lot of men and old men in this contest), as well as unifying some elements in his wardrobe to make him look less casual/normal. Even gimp heroes can color accessorize. If the gloves were the same color as the hat and rubber boots, then you could see it more as a constructed getup. You could also think about iron-on, or hand drawn self-made emblems on his clothes that is like OCD in a Superman diamond. A kid could do that easy.
I just uploaded a lot of things to think about - have fun downloading it.

P.S. - I would make the changes on your drawing to see how it works. I'm assuming it is an illustrator documet? Don't get me wrong, I like it a lot, but you need to decide if you want the effect that your drawing has, or do you want to go for something else.

P.S.S. - Whatever you do, I would can his name and use something more subtle (OCD-Man is very overt) like The Cleaning Cadet, or Scrub Squire, etc..
