Just getting into modeling my first character now at last, so thought id start my first WIP :)

I modeled the character in super sculpey last week off of a few sketches I had made under the title and description of 'Swamp Mage' for my college project, unforunately I didnt have time to finish the feet and head or add hands cause the armature started to buckle under the weight at the ankles.

C&C most welcomed :P

no im just kidding (in CASE you havent noticed it's bad intentionally)

i LOVE the sculpture - and the model seems to come along nicely :) what program do you use?

lol at calista flockhart

Im using Maya 4.5, modeling in polys for now and checking what it looks like as Sub'd then will add detail in sub d mode later.

Cant scan the sketches in right now unfortunately cause scanner is being a pain in the bum :)

Cheers btw :)

Ok I've spent the last few days fleshing out the limbs and have started adding detail as i work my way back up the body,
Nearly finished the feet now, i just need to rework the heels and ankles a bit before carrying on up the legs and body.

Would appreciate any crits anyone can give so far :)

Thanks

Thanks for the comments guys, spent the day on the legs, some areas might look a bit flat, but im happy with them for now and will probably alter them after ive finished modeling it via polys and have made a final sub'd conversion.

Here are some pics of the legs, I will be working the waist and rib cage area tonight.

Dude ... the leg detail is awesome :applause:

I would add a bit more detail to the feet -- more muscle structure, to make them match the legs. Maybe exhaggerate the tendons at the base of each toe a little bit (Not much, just a little)

Thanks for the update... It's coming along nicely.

thanks guys,
i will come back to the feet at some point and define them a bit more for sure, will add a muscle or two and so on ;P

just starting up on the rib cage and back area now, trying to make sure i get the muscle tones and bone structure right.

will post some images later tonight.
