this project is all about death.the call from the other world has arrived for the man.this is the very next moment after he realised that he is going to die.nobody wishes to die....and he is no exception.he might be the mightiest man in the world but he too is afraid of death...and can not deny it.the cracked soil underneath his feet symbolises the real world...the world we live in.it is cracked because there is no true happiness in this world...it is full of grief and sorrow.....momentary happiness does not really count here.but still however rusty the world be, nobody wants to leave it.the overcast sky says that it will rain soon...which is going to make the world green-a happy place to live in.the tree in the background is dead...which is the state that the man is going to enter.like the cracked earth it is too waitng for the rain to come that will make it alive once again.but in reality it never rains.the cloud stays wherever it is forever.the man knows all these things...he also knows that he can not fight death....but it is his and all living-beings’ eternal instinct to survive which is still resisting the call.it is the fate of every living-being in the world to face the call.and where there is the call there is the instict of survival.which one is greater then?i’m still searching for the answer though i know i will never be able to get it.
btw:my sister keeps calling it 'The Fall'.i say whether be it 'The Call' or 'The Fall' the meaning is the same.
About the model :
firstly i would like to say that the head part(excluding the ears) is highly influenced by amaan akram's red glass demon.i guess no other head would have looked alright upon this man's shoulders.the rest of the model is the result of all my imagination and dozens of reference images.the total face-count of the mesh is 22716 with 22778 vertices.the body is rendered with 2-level of subsurf subdivision.
btw:is the model good enough to be added into my demoreel for a char-modeler's job?if not then please mention which areas i should work more.
