Paul, arturro, Lelantos thanks for the support I really appreciate your motivation boosts! 
Would you have any comments or suggestions concerning the alien face (open the bigger image to view some details 'cause from the small one on the post most details look like noiseā¦) or coloring the main clothes of the Council Member? Iām really stuck especially with the Council Member!
Thanks again friends!
:wavey:
Hi Mikeā¦I would give the council members light clothes in both color and fabricā¦And the key with them would be the illumination,I think you should keep them simple,soft light tonesā¦Give there garments a little tweak,a little twist,make them a little more un-even,non-symetrical,a little more wornā¦And give them a very vibrant and intense iluminationā¦Let this be there main hookā¦
The aliens should get a more overbearing appearance,stronger,a forehead and jaw that juts 9Sticks) out moreā¦The forehead should get larger areas above and on the eye brow areaā¦Larger skull,wider tooā¦Jaw line could get wider too,more menacing,more out of this World,right now they look too humanā¦unless of course this is what you wantā¦I just think a more stylised look would be the way to goā¦but thats just me,this is your baby all the way Mike,you are doing a very nice job overall,and I just hope to help in some small way along the wayā¦Go at it hard,I think you are certanly on the right road,just get in some more tweakingā¦Just like the rest of usā¦Iāll be looking in again for more,all the best for nowā¦:arteest: 
ThatĀ“s some detailled work you present hereā¦very impressing. Very!
Be carefull with the smooth areas on your buildings, seems like thereĀ“s some areas where you should work (maybe made by too many adges meeting in one point before sub. div. is appliedā¦hope you understand my way of explaining:))
The alien face is really great, has life. The Council Member has a little more lifeless face, but so does some faces also in the real world.
Great work here, keep on the hard workā¦And yes, you do have to make textures for every little detailā¦:shrug:
Thanks for the support and feedback! Been away on a business trip last day and now Iām back.
Virtuoso thanks a lot man for critiques and giving me some point to start! Iāll adopt those as constractively possible ASAP!! :bounce:
Kragh thanks for the support and points on the buildings . Iāll look into them on texturing time, fixing those spots you pointed!
||) |V| |^| and uwil thanks for the supporting comments!
I plan tonight be the ālong Council Member late (all) - nighterāā¦so Iāll be back with updates on this strange Mafia fellow later!!
Hi man!..okā¦in your Alien face u decided to go as i have read to a white kinda elephant skinā¦what bothers my imagination is that a creature with tottaly white skin has Zero temperatureā¦so i guess try to see if a little warm color works better to your characterā¦again light color but not tottaly whiteā¦hope i helpedā¦cool work manā¦keep going!
some cool designs u have here
and I read something form another threadā¦ u a helloween fan ?
Thanks for support Dim and Squibbit!
Unfortunatelly last night I couldnāt make it with the Council guy, instead of working on the textures I started creating a new robe on him! 
Regarding the alien face, I have this warm problem quite a while nowā¦thanks for pointing it out Dim, Iāll look into it asap I finish the Council Member (Planning on a birthday pic for myself and Lemog with this guy if finished!!)
Squibbit, thanks manā¦Actually not a real Helloween fanā¦more like a classic epic metal fan (Keeper of 7 Keys, mostly Manowar and some others)ā¦ I have a āHeart of Steelā animation idea in my head since 1992 (ā¦smells like ficoloā¦ )
Hopefully coming soon with texture and model update on Council Member (this name is rather sillyā¦now on I call him āBobā)ā¦
CU soon!!
:wavey:
o , Iām a big Helloween fan myself (thereās even the pumpkin dude in my Space
Opera 2D entry , heh)
yea Manowarās great , too! You should listen to Dark Ride CD of Helloweens newer products ā¦also Better than Raw is a great CD.
anyways, have fun and see u later
Hey Mike, the Council Member costume is going well. Some of the elements show some originality (which is really hard in todayās seen-it-all world). The shape of the head reminds me of the 'Gorn" from the original Star Trek series. I like your concept - looking forward to seeing it come together.
-DM
heya
the council member is looking pretty goodā¦ Iād like to suggest making him a bit taller, what do u think?
I like the freaky cables coming out of his head, great!
I stuck with Council Member (Bob) so I started texturing on SpitFire. Hereās where I am so far. I believe tomorrow or the day after Iāll be done with this one. All the glowing places are mental thrust amplifiers, I tried to keep the same color on the amp effect with the Council Member. C&C pleaseā¦
wow Mikeā¦ nice updatesā¦!
i like a lot how you made this hull look rustyā¦! this noise on the edges really looks goodā¦ as well aluminium like texture for itā¦ looking forward to see texturing finishedā¦
keep going my friend and cheersā¦
Very nice texturing i really like the spitfire
this will look extra cool with the final texturing:thumbsup:
my only crit is the glass looks a little plastic maybe adding a little reflection on it if you want to keep it with no transparency.
waiting to see the final keep it up mate:buttrock:
Paul, Climax, Lelantos
Thanks for support guys! I see now (with the daylight, 'cause when I posted the image it was waaaayyy to late) that the wings have no rust on themā¦so the final version will include some rust on wings too. Also the glow effect will be replaced with mental energy effect as seen in an early post in this threadā¦
Hope to see you soon with updatesā¦
Daniel, thanks for the support man! I was aiming at something different ā¦but couldnāt avoid the robe clicheā¦
Versiden, thanks mate! Iām on a āheavy tweakingā with the Council Member so Iāll give him a shot!
Thanks again mates!! :bounce:
