I chose the Ice Demon Lord character for Dominance war IV. He's a character that appears in mist and immediately drops the rooms temp 30 degrees. Followed immediately by game over.

I don't think you can see the ice part of him too prominently. Most of it will be in the texture. He has a snowflake pattern on his coat, icicles and frost collect on the bottoms of his clothes, the skin texture will have embedded chunks of ice, and snow will be on top of his body. I'm not sure about the color test. j

He has a power arm and an ether arm. I plan on flipping the sash and armlet so his power arm is on the right. The idea is he would grab the player with the power arm and stab them in the back freezing them from the inside out. If I like him I will animate him in max and import him into the unreal 3 engine.

Helllooooo CGtalk! Not that anyone ever responds on this site. No comments must be a good thing. It beats negative feedback anyday lol :)

I did a major part of the modeling Monday. He is in the target range of 10,000 tris in the pics below. All quads. I could only find 2 three sided polys in the back of his head. I couldn't figure out what to do with an edgeloop.

Today, I worked on the topology and stand. While waiting for an after effects render at the internship. The stand is going to be a giant flash-frozen water fountain like the one at ppg place in Pittsburgh. I will post the updates done today later.

After I clean it up it should be a little more accurate right now he's 2000 tris to big. I still have to work on the asymmetrical elements, drop in planes for the icicles on the base of his clothes, scarf, etc. cleaning topology.
