DWIII - 3D - GavinG - Abomination

The subscription method will make this easier :slight_smile:

Ear placement below the cheekbone seems a little odd, whats your thinking on that one?

I like the bulge on the face, that kind of big asymtery in the face is fundementally creepy. Have you looked at it with the eyeside forehead running back at a flatter angle? Wondered if it might emphasize that even more.

I initially thought a more apelike posture would work, but on a second look that posture wouldn’t neccesarily help. The reason I was thought ape was that the arms look like they could use more support. The body communiates that the gauntlets are heavy and almost pulling the arms, but with both the head and the arms ahead of the legs it seems like he’d tip forward naturally. Hard to guess at with the legs undone.

It got a lot more unique and vicious in the latest changes, good stuff. Shame we won’t be seeing him do a slipper clad smashy smashy though, can’t you just see him ripping the arms off someone then grinding the corpse into the dust with a pink bunny slipper? :smiley:

hey gavin!

wow! this just gets better and better. i love the last wip.
no crits.

-r

#96

uh… yeah. Definately.
And your sfx addtions for the cuts and what not seem a good idea to me.

on the sihouette side of things:
I kind of prefer the big spiky ocean mine ball things instead. Little more interesting i suppose.

#97

Don’t know if you’re still trying to give the feel he’s not responsible for his actions because the gloves are driving him, and it might sound cheap, but you could try to give him a really sad face, with tears running down on his cheeks, showing that the last part of humanity in him is in an eternal agony.

#98

Hey gav, dig the stitching on your characters body. Makes him much more aggressive

#99

As always your work rules dude cant wait to see the final version!

#100

Awesome work thus far, I prefer the more muscular version, like the comic ref you posted. The fat version with stitches and chains is fairly close to Warcraft’s Abomination.

#101

Awesome work :thumbsup: I would go for the muscular version as well.

#102

Gav, you’re never on msn anymore :frowning:

anyways, awesome progress man this guy is going to make another killer entry for your folio!

#103

Hey man good to see you in it again this year, keep it up looking good

#104

Wow, lots of posts :stuck_out_tongue:

sorry guys, I’ve been stupidly busy with work lately…so, not many new updates from me. Just wanted to drop in and say thanks for posting :slight_smile:

Kary: I think I’m going to actually remove the ear completely. I wanted to do it to add some assymetry, but I tihnk it looks a little goofy.

ThatDon: Yeah man, I’m trying to kick IM. Basically just on for work contacts so I don’t get distracted.

MartinNielsen, RedFish, MDR, naidoomahen, Happy Cookie, rasmusW, ColdKodiak: Thanks!

Again, slow ass progress. Blocking in the hands and some leg thinigies. Nothins really final yet, so feel free to comment away. The width of the forearms is kind of sloppy as i knew they’d be covered by huge gauntlets :slight_smile:

cheers,
Gav

Pfffffffffft finally an update gawd… hehe :D. Great start on the mesh, although I think the top part of his body could be a bit stronger,

  • Shoulders could be a little bit bigger, not saying this because of the weight of his hands but because it seems too straight. Or reduce the size of those … what do you call those muscles…, oh yea his Trapezius.

  • btw… Is that how the head is going to look?

Cheers mate

#106

Proportion is perfect, only in my opinion you can move up the shoulders a bit. Definetely character will look cool after you start sculpting, I’m visualising it rightnow:).
Waiting for updates.

#107

dude! those silhouttes are awesome! looks like the mutant child from a threesome between Kratos, Hellboy and Frankenstien’s monster. Hawt!!

i can’t wait to see this one all finished up! you have a great bold chunky style!

#108

awesome design especially with those cool chains, adds alot to the silhouette. I’m really looking forward to seeing more of your work on this.

#109

Hey guys!

Thanks for the feedback, I’ve been really busy with work lately and haven’t really had time to work on this guy. I’ll try to keep plucking away, but finishing isn’t really looking that possible for me this year :frowning: Just wanted to drop in and say thanks, really appreciate the positive response.

Cheers,
Gav

#110

unacceptable Gav, if i have to track you down and glew your hands to your (home) computer, you’re going to finish this guy… erhm, thing…

#111

People, we need glue for Gavin’s fingers here! STAT! lol
After seeing what you’ve done previously, it’s normal to see people being excited over what will come out here. Glimpses over teasers, I’d still want to see what the creature will look like. Even if it doesn’t partake on the DW rampage!

#112

I am with these guys, get down on it! :smiley: I have enjoyed your stuff in the past and would love to see this keep going.

#113

hehe :stuck_out_tongue: Thanks for the support guys! I’ll try to continue this in my off time after the competiton, I may even take it into a slightly different direction. I’ve been stupidly busy lately though and really haven’t had time for for this guy. I’m hoping to relaunch my website here soon, geared towards clients and stuff, and will hopefully have some new pro and personal work to show off.

Thanks again!

Cheers,
Gav
