OMFG!
it’s the evil dude from LEGEND! (god i was like young as hell when it came out haha!)
Rendering done in messiah:Studio2.
I didn’t realize Tim Curry played the LOD in Legend?!?!? That’s hella funny considering his icon status from RHPS.
I actually like the look of his skin…it matches the qualities of the costume in the film. I also think the displacement detailing is an improvement over the original.
Glad you got put on the front page. I know I did my fair share of whining to help out. 
Since watching Legend again on DVD, I just can’t imagine anyone else pulling off some of those dialogue with that operatic voice than Tim Curry. Also, there was no animatronics used in Legend, they had Tim Curry and I believe a stunt guy on stilts, almost similiar rigged as the werewolve suits in Underworld. Also, LoD’s eyes were made from golfballs with sleets that they shoved into Tim Curry’s eyes, he couldn’t see through those things. Supposely Tim Curry didn’t fancy the makeup and suit, and complained quite a bit, something which Ridley Scott took some amusement out of.
Leebert, chikega, lmilton, wegg, Thomas and everyone, thanks for the comments and crits.
Cheers,
Leebert, hmmm i think atleast one acronym there is wrong, the second one I dunno what it means 
either way, this model captures the character brilliantly. great job!
hehe… Amazing model, no use to mention it…
But I’d like to know if you can actually animate that one ? …lots of detailing in there that seem to require a hell of a Skinning job !!!
pe@ce
Animate? Yes, this character is fully rigged from the waist on up. Even has muscle bones for chest, lats, shoulder, bicep, foreman, neck, obliques, and even a functioning facial rig. The rig isn’t 100% done, no animator friendly controls or sliders, but useable enough to animate with. I’ll show shots of the rig in the “making of”.
Cheers,
LOD = Lord of Darkness
RHPS = Rocky Horror Picture Show
I didn’t realize it was so fully rigged. I’m really looking forward to the “behind the scenes” on this dood.
I absolutely love it. So dark and evil. I would also like to see some WIP shots.
Thanks.
oh, it was in my “TO DO” list heh, deleted it…
Great job man, u’ve achieved it perfectly, plastic look ROCKS! :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock:
Maybe lighting isn’t appropiate for this kind of character IMO, but creates pretty colors.
-DDS
I love the Darkness character and you definiitely did justice to his likeness! Great job!
I’ve been thinking 'bout doing one myself some day.
Damn that’s nice! Even thou it sorta lacks of any environment, the demon/devil/satan or whoever is brutally cool!
from me dude ![]()
can we get one with realistic looking skin???
nj but i HATE THAT condom material look, i dont hate your work, just that look.
modeling rox of course.
Wow, looks exactly like I remember except for the abs!
I do think that the highlight is way too bright, he looks completely smooth now. Friggin five stars though!
I must see the movie again! Maybe I’m wrong about the highlights too! I’m definitely going to get Zbrush!:eek:
Well I had posted a comment but it seemed to be deleted and I am not sure why. But I’ll say it again. Awesome work. I love darkness.
Thanks you for those ‘behind the scenes’ images you said you would show us over @ ZBC.
I love seeing how things come to fruitation. Thanks for posting that a link to the wip thread too chikega.![]()
