Races of Middle Earth - Character - LXStalker

#7

Here we go… here´s a first look on the concept i´m working on. i decided to post it unfinished, cause i don´t think that i´ll finish it soon. :wink:

i rather start modelling :wink:

#8

aahh… and i forgot something:
the design is strongly inspired by the great creatures of Patrice Garcia! I love his art and can strongly suggest to take a look at his comic books. :buttrock:

#9

Hey nice concept!
Keep up the good work!
:thumbsup:

#10

thanx Gandalf!

i´m still on doubt if this is a good character for the challenge. Any ideas from you guys how to make him less humanoid ?
:shrug:

#11

less humaniod… hmm…

i guess the best way to change that is going to the face and the torso…

how bout some tentacles that do extra steering in addition to the arms and some more eyes? (or maybe none?)

cheers

That’s looking good, LXStalker :slight_smile:

#15

What honor to hear that from you, leigh!
:bounce:
Hope you´ll like the next update coming soon. :wink:

#16

I really like this concept LX, hope it works out as good as the drawing, good luck! :thumbsup:

#17

i like the before and after shots…you have a nice charcter expression going already, with just a few pushed polys…enjoyed the sketch as well, a great conveyance of force and enrgy to it:thumbsup:

wil be lookin forward to more as this progresses

#18

Next Update…

:slight_smile:

#19

yeehaa…

great development!

but to be honest:
i would change the mouth to something more neutral. with the look it has right now you lose a lot of the “mean” impression i would guess it should have…
it looks a bit sad around the mouth and very angry and mean around the eyes which does not really match that good IMHO…

but anyway: cool model (i love the detail where the ears would be… can you do a screenshot of that area?)

cheers alex

back again :wink:

i continued with the upper body. i´ll finish the body first before adding the details to the face. I think he´ll get some turtle like armor, which is part of his body. will add much more details to it.

#21

had some time to continue modelling.
plz c&c the design of the legs. shoes just placeholders. :wink:

#22

i like alot the face design and the legs…
great design dude… go on!

#23

InnerVortex: THNX ! i´lll give my best.

here are some closeups of his (untextured) boots. i will add details to them later.

#24
