Morning Steph!:bounce:

Wow, with his armor he looks even more sinister:eek: - already very detailed, I like the style!
What is the material you’ll use for the “underwear”? I just try to imagine how to put this thing on in the first place, it looks so tight fitting…Let’s see more of this!

Wish you a great day!

Hey Sabie !

Thx a lot , in fact, the “light tight armor” is supposed to be wear directly on the flesh . The guy’s skin is almost totally burned so the armor is used to support wracked muscles . So theorically he couldnt take this off ever . All these details will be add with ZB.

Thx for the support . will be back soon with more.

cheers ,

-Steph

Really cool Steph - his cheek seems maybe a little low? Just a minor subjective comment. Really like the armor, keep posting! :slight_smile:


#32

Thx for pointing Beckie , you obviously right .

I tweaked it … although it doesn’t show with the huge hat :

Armor update with the helmet …

Let me know what you guys think of.

cheers ,

Morning Steph!

The additional details on the body armor are coming along very good, I like it. Also the lower part of the head armor is great, though it’s a pity that we can’t see much of the face!:slight_smile:
But I’m not sure about the hat-thingy, not really fitting in style and detailing, don’t you think? Well, it’s still wip, so I’m eager to see what you make with it!

Have a nice day!:wavey:

That is a big hat :smiley: heh it kind of overwhelms the face and body. :slight_smile: But surely a very interesting project, still following (though not very often posting)…


#35

Hey friends :slight_smile:

Thx ladies. Actually , I’m certainely gonna rid off the hat for the final illustration , cause it’s obvious that it hides to much of the face …

Here’s some ZB doodling while I’m unwrapping all the armor parts.

Let me know what you guys think of

cheers ,

Morning Steph!

Huh, he looks more and more like someone you won’t mess around with:thumbsup: !

…you have my sympathy, not the most exiting part of the work, but I’m really eager to see a textured version!:bounce:

Nice day for you!

Hi Z! just thought I’d let you in on a little secret for UV unwrapping… Don’t know if you’re aware of some aussie ingenuity called UV layout… check the vids here.

http://www.uvlayout.com/

It’s been handy for me. Another alien interface to learn (nothing is clicked with the mouse) but it took me about 4 hrs to learn and I’m never looking back

The armour is top! Even if the design is not yours the execution is great. I am a lover of silly hats and hairdoos because for games this helps define the shilloette of the character. I think the head gear is just fine.

I am not sure about the portrait. The ears look so thin they might not be able to support themselves and I cant find much musculature in the face. Other than that it looks like it is comming on great.:slight_smile:

Great stuff
Cheerio Chris

Hey guys :slight_smile:

@ daWinky : thx a lot Sabie . actually I used to hate that , but now it doesn’t bother me that much anymore … Anyway everything is proper unwrapped now , so the best part could start :slight_smile:

@ DaddyMack : Hey Dadda , thx a lot for the link , seems really cool and fast … I’ll give it a shot for sure. Although I’m a lot faster in that aera now , a mix between maya and unfold and the job is done pretty fast …

@ Kanga : hey Chris , thx a lot , gladly appreciated . About the head , I got the same feeling than yours , I tweaked some stuff than erased it … So I’m still digging to look for a nice thing . Plus I think I need the hair to figure the right look I want. Thx for dropping by man.

Ok , everything’s unwrapped and the ZB/displace thingy is in the factory. I also threw some bones to get a pose for fun … so here :

Let me know what you guys think of

cheers ,

Wow, that’s a very cool armor. Great job!


#41

That last character looks great! Maybe a bit too much hooks and things to my liking - but i like to see how it turns out.


#42

Woo, that is quite an amazing, intimidating looking elf. :slight_smile: Very cool! When do I get my figurine in the mail?? :smiley:


#43

Hey Steph! :slight_smile: very nice keep working dude!

best wishes


#44

Morning Steph,

just discovered the last update, impressive pose and these shoes…!:thumbsup:
So now I’m eager to see the promised “ZB/displace thingy”.

Nice day for you!

-sabrina


#45

Yay, Steph! That last character of yours really looks smashing (even have wonderful stylish shoes ) :wink:
So, what happened to snakelady in the first post, did you finish her?

I will be back to whip you so you don’t start snailing again you know - take that as a promise :smiley:


#46

yeah I really like the design of the armour and I do not even mind the helmet covering most of the face.

keep on rocking


#47

Morning friends ,

@ Heozart : Thx mate

@ batte812 : Thx , gladly appreciated

@ Rebeccak : Thx a lot Beckie , glad you like it. In fact the figurine already exists in 2 versions. The illu I’m planning is a mix between those 2 … I hope I’m gonna finish it in this century.

@ Sauron : Thx a lot , I will do my best .

@ daWinky : aww Thx Sabie , I had to do a short break but I’m getting back to it by now , I hope I will pop out this week end with something new.

@ Gunilla : Yay Gunie … mommy’s back , so twice harder for me to snail … I’m really pleased you like him , If I remember correctly , the male elf was kind of requested …
The lady spaghetti isn’t finished , I kind of dislike how she turned out and probably I will start over one day , but I really liked the concept and I will surely try to complete an illu on that theme later.

@ johanflood : Thx a lot mate .

Thx guys for the feedback , will do my best to show some progress over the week end .

Have a nice end of week

cheers ,

-Zapan
