I’ve been trying to came up with a scene based on this illustration done by a friend of mine (Marcelo Souza) for a while. Secret Agent Challenge is the perfect opportunity.
I’ll write a short story, before I can start to sketch the concept for the scene. I’m planning to work on one or two of those characters; they will be the “Agents Killers” trying to ambush my agent/hero.
You can see more of Marcelo’s works on her flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/marceleza/

So, these are the two bad guys. My scene will be set inside a train.
We will see them on a corridor, next to the door of a private cabin where the agent is reading a newspaper. The plane is to kill the agent, and through the body out. They are about to do that, but the agent is much more smart than they could’ve imagined!!
I’m looking for some references for the cabin…

Hehe,
Nice characters!
Did Bill Gates inspire you for the one on the right? 
Cool work so far!

So, I started to model the first character. It’s just a simple base mesh; now is time to jump into ZBrush and get serious!
The head was deformed from a base mesh I did a while ago, and the rest were all done in Maya.
I’m still not sure, but I’ll probably go for realistic details instead of a cartoon look.

His head and gloves needs lots of details, but overall it’s almost finished.
I’m not sure if we are going to be able to see his legs on the final composition, so I wont model them for now.
I still have two more characters and a train cabin to model; a lot of fun yet to come!!
when you finish them there’ll be quite a bunch

I’m just gonna work on two of them for this challenge; the two I posted on a separeted image.
I’m still not sure of how the agent is gonna look like. Maybe I’ll take one of the others as reference; or I’ll just sit with my friend who did that illustration (Marcelo Souza, like I mentioned before) and work on a new concept.
Maybe it’s not such a good idea to base the “hero” of the scene on one of those other characters; they just doesn’t look like good guys.

Your Zbrush character is looking great - lots of character. It’s just my own opinion but I would have liked to see sphere eyeballs. But I guess it’s just the style you’re going for.
Good Job!!

mic: Thanks!! Actually, I’ve already changed his eyes and face a little bit after I’ve posted that last image. The eyes are more spherical, and the face is angrier now. I’m trying to make him more expressive, but I’m not satisfied yet. I’m trying to “finish” it, before I can post new images here, but I’ll try to show a screencap of his face later today…
tunes: Thanks dude!! Como não te reconhecer com o “Madsen Fotografia” no seu perfil?? rs…

Ok, that’s it. I’ll stop working on this guy for now, and start modeling the next one…
I’ll add a few more details on it if I have time. Still have a lot to model, before I can start working on the textures.
