hey, nice design !
the legs seem odd though. i think he would have some problems walking. can’t figure out where the knee should be.
i have to agree with Montegra about polycount. also the silhouette gets a bit too busy and repetitive.

I hadn’t figured how much of a polybudget this character would need to make it work. None of the rules specify that the concept has to follow 3d constraints. I figured since it is a game art comp that it could go either cinematics or next gen. I wasn’t planning on putting to much thought into a poly limit, instead I was going to focus on making sure that it worked in 3d.

pretty sure the rules say 9000 poly’s max, including weapons.
and damn your awesome design:argh:

ScudzAlmighty-- That polycount is for the 3d comp, the concept comp has no such limitations. Like I said before I’m not going to think on any polybudget, my goal is to make it so it could be modeled in 3d.
Here’s another concept. I’m liking more the last two that I did, I feel I’m getting exactly what I wanted which was a massive, brutish warrior.
I plan on getting the final design by the end of the week, that should give me plenty of time to do the character sheet and beauty shot for April 7th.

So freakin cool 
What are the flowy bits coming off the forearms? It would be cool to see him in his ramming position!

:0// :0_ :0// :0_ I feel like making a worshipper char for this character 
those red arm horns are stunning! great idea to use big runeart elements on actual figure 
only critique is I think the belt and the little horn-piece below chest don’t fit in… and maybe use gold against the black only or there seems to be two different kind of red materials which seems to clash maybe…

Thats a great concept with brilliant presentation, any chance of seeing them in some action poses?

Your last two posted pics are awesome! :bounce:
The painting/color balanced with the line work is really superb.
The design is pretty tight too, can’t wait to see your final! I’ll be watching…

Thanks for the kind word everybody!
erik_j–You are right about the belt and such I did refined it some more, haven’t been able to post latest stuff because my upstairs neighbors water pipe burst and totally ruined my studio room. Had to move all my computer and crap out of the way and now i’m just waiting for somebody to fix my ceiling before I set up the room again.
fx81– Yes this time around i’m just doing 2d, I don’t think I can manage to do 3d.
MDR– I have him in an action pose for the sketches of the weapon. Haven’t been able to post it yet. Also this aren’t final anythings, they’re just ment to help me later on when I have to think on the final composition.
Airflow– I thought about giving him some more. Wasn’t sure if it would of been too much, I really wanted his feet to have the free ability to move around and thought more armor might hinder that. Might give him something like what they put on rooster’s(the spike) in Cockfights.
toureiro– Yeah those are just sketches, nothing final yet. I’ll keep in mind the lighting when doing the final shot.
Again thank you everybody!!

Here’s some more sketches on the weapon, not happy with any of these. Going to keep trying.
I’ll be posting tonight as I get stuff done.
