Pretty crazy theme, very open to wild trippy visions haha. Look forward to seeing what you come up with.

[Myers]

First thanks for comments :) and this is my sketch. I wanted capture only main shapes, because I like to invent/design stuff on the fly during modeling phase. its more fun... I'm thinking also to add strings criss crossed between his fingers to capture the web of conditions or/and some mandala shaped weapon. will start model this evening. see you all later.

[Myers]

edit: just testing how to post images properly...

base mesh modeling progress

That's a very interesting way of modeling. I like the likeness compared to the concept in shape and look.
Just wondering why you left some triangles?

[Myers]

hi, thats just base mesh for high poly model. It will be fixed at the end when Ill create final low poly... btw, why interesting ? :)

[kogen]

Ahhh I seee... hehe, at first it looked like you would have started ths body out of a plane -> moving to a box and -> adding then the final volume... but my weary eyes played tricks on me ;) anyways good start, I'd like to see what you'll add in ZBrush.

[Myers]

arms added

Looks like me and you have the same theme.

I made my god a few weeks ago and it was between Emptiness and Nullity, and I went with Nullity. Nullity however is the absence of matter so it is the same thing as emptiness in a way.

[Myers]

hi pavel, as you can see by date of first post I reserved and started this theme two days before you. anyway i dig your work. good luck


edit: also my type of emptiness is not absence of matter, its more like absence of reality in things... its more abstract i guess. anyway i don't think that there'll be problem with similar god names or occupations.

[PavelSokov]

Then we are all good!

I was looking at your model and I feel that if you want the really large arm parts, then you should balance it out by adding some large leg parts. Large feet or some large floating Armour around the legs?

[Myers]

maybe I scale them down little...

[Myers]

high poly started with his legs...

[kogen]

Wow I like theese details on the legs. How did you achieve them? By using alphas from Photoshop or did you build them up in ZBrush? Did you model them?

[Myers]

most of them I painted by hand with mask brush (you have to invert masking when done) and then used inflat on masked area.

[skyheinrich]

Nice details.
Sweet contrast between organic and mechanic bodyparts.
Keep it up.

[VictorFornes]

good work here. Have the agree, little long legs will give more stylized shape.

peace

[MissOptimist]

nice stuff. Are you going to retopologize this after you sculpting in zbrush?

[Myers]

Hi, when i finished high poly i just sligthly edited low. I modeled few more details and adjusted few places so no real retopologizing.

[Myers]

flesh (...and the power it holds:)
