maybe the hips are still strange…but the last choice is for Kirt!

I think he’s really missing the mass of his torso right now. He just doesn’t look the same as my concept for some reason. Head seems a bit big still.

The upper arms are kind of confusing too. Is the lump in the middle his bicep or shoulder? If it’s his bicept, it needs to be smaller. If it’s his shoulder, it’s way too low.

ok i tried to get him some mass. changed the arms, that is made them much rounder. is it now going the right direction ?

backview

#12

and some overview. hope you like him kind of now… he is more tricky than i thought.

#13

no comments on this version of the alien ? is it that bad ? also, kirt, could you take a look at the cow modeling and comment that ? thanks.

#14

It’s not bad … but I’m trying to determine why it looks different than my concept. General shape looks good, but something is off about the whole thing. I’ll probably have to draw over the image to nail it down. I’ll get back to you shortly on this one.

#15

yes, my alien looks different from your drawing. i can see that. i tried to find out the reason, but i cannot see what is the problem, sorry i am not that experienced.

if you could find time to draw over my renderings, that would be very helpful. ( the box the alien is carrying in your drawing hides a large part of his body. )

#16

Added a front pose to the concept art. Maybe that will help?

#17

thanks ! i am back to work…

#18

i think he is getting better. what do you think, kirt ? (shoes are still very wip)

#19

and another view

#20

Yes, he’s getting better. We’ll just have to keep tweeking and getting new concept drawings until he looks perfect. I’ll give you some more usefull critique later this evening. Don’t have much free time right now.

But, I just wanted you to know I saw it and it’s much better than the previous version. :thumbsup:

#21

thanks, kirt. glad you think he is better now. so i am patient, waiting for more, and may be work more on the shoes.

#22

I’ll have to draw over your images … I’ll try to get these posted in the morning.

#23

Well, a busy couple of days for me. But there is a new image in the concept art thread now. I hope this works for you. I really need to get back to work on storyboards.

#24

thank you kirt for taking the time to do these sketches ! they really helped, as i could see what was wrong. i worked now matching up your drawing.

here just a quick view of the improved alien, still way to go though.

#25

Getting better … but still a bit off. You need to define those shapes better. Right now he’s looking like he’s molded from a big lump of clay. Boots, kneepads and uniform should look like separate objects on him.
