DWIII - 2D - Vegasmike - The Dominator


#1

Hi Everyone! My name is Adam Vehige aka “Vegasmike”…you may have seen some of my stuff on Conceptart.org or Deviantart. I’m sorry Im late for this party but I think I can make it with the deadline extended…I want to do a Warlord…not quite sure which element to use but Im leaning towards fire, darkness, or rock/earth…Let me know what you guys think!


#2

Hmm, I seem to have single-handedly pushed #5 to the 100% mark! But I;m sure toehrs will vote,m and I have to confess I was torn between #5 and #6. 5 has some really fun proportions and the most dynamic pose. 6 is the only one to me who feels like a character as opposed to a monster and would be a person I’d more want to play in a game. So take those how you will.
Good luck!

#6, for me, is the kind of guy, that you think isn’t fast, but actually, he’s deadly, and fun! The kind of character I would play soma game. The other look badasses, but you can see in their eyes, that they are going to cut your head off. #6 could become a cool, funny, and great character.

Thanks for the feedback…I’ve gotten lots of replies on DA and most have decided 4&5 are the coolest…I decided to combine them and here’s the result. I decided to go for the Darkness Void element and changed the weapon to a double sided scythe…let me know what you guys think.


#6

I personally prefer no.3 or no.6, but the combination that you did looks awesome as well!. I am sure he will do some massive damages there. Well done!


#7

Looking real good. :thumbsup:

i posted a comment on this in dA, but i had to come and check it out here too. :slight_smile:

i LOVE the combined concept. its got a strong sense of power and evil to it, and i can picture this as a boss in a hell level of a game. for some reason i think of Pyramid Head when i see this, not because of any similarities, but its just the feel of the character.


#9

Thanks for the feedback, wish I could get a little more before it’s over…This is the final pose paintjob, let me know what you guys think! I need to get on the front side and back poses…Thanks again and take care!

The Dominator is a demonic Warlord who wields the powerful, Scythe of Doom. His weapon is infused with Dark Energy harvested from the souls of all who have met their fate at the end of its blade. The Dominator has a lust for death and destruction…He is the widow maker, inhaling the howls of his foes as they fall beneath his blade, the crushing of bone, the spilling of blood, the thrill of the kill. The war had been over before it began, for he himself was the dominator, and nothing could match him.

nice mike…only crit i have is…if he has a from the void feel…i somehow imagine a darker, blue-er image. like…yeh, i dont even know how to explain it. maybe lower the brightness and add some redder lighting? its got more of a warlord feel to it now. although its still bloody awesome.

…after re-reading the post and looking at the image again, as a concept piece i suppose making it darker would be a bad idea, because you may loose a lot of detail.


#11

Hey guys…I finally finished up my orthos…let me know what you guys think!


#12

Guys, I need a little love here! Hook me up with some replies, let me know what you think.


#13

I think I know what you feel :slight_smile: I like your character, looks very powerfull… the model seet looks ok, I mean its clear.

keep workin’ good luck!


#14

Thanks Flirka! Just want everyone to know I updated my final with a description…FINALLY DONE!


#15

Finally done? Um, what about the required character sheet? Or are you simply submitting the sheet that had the 6 possibilities on it?

Anyhow, like your action pose - subtle coloring, but still very bold and striking.

I did also notice one small flaw in your character write up: "…no living man could match him. " But what about machines, who is the enemy in this war? :smiley:

Anyhow, nice work, and good luck!


#16

Hey Walrus…Thanks for the feedback! I thought the 6 black and white concepts I did were what they were looking for? Does it have to be more polished than that? Also I will make the change to the description…I forgot about the storyline! Thanks again and good luck to you as well!


#17

Well, that Character sheet is the sort of “free-for-all,” it’s pretty much whatever you want it to be. I think those 6 characters are perfectly valid, I just wasn’t sure it was what you were using or not. It might be nice to tie it in a bit more with your modeling sheet by makignt ehm the same color, having the title in the same palce, etecetera. Just an idea, though.
