I’m going for the “Iliad”

Great theme man!!!. You could search for some images next to that period in the black figures pottery from the S.VII b.c. from Greece ( weapons, figure-eight shields,wild board teeth helmets…).

Good Luck!!!

concept for the upper body of Agamemnon

#13

Cool! I really like that leather look

#14

It is cool; I like the leather look. However, because of the silhouette and the design of the upper portion (reminds me of a dress), it looks rather feminine to me.

#15

Yeah, I notice the femenine look
maybe it’s because of the shoulders… dunno

but I want to go for a victorian/baroque style and that’s a little bit femenine

Refining ideas for Agamemnon

#17

Refs for the Agamemnon’s Face features:

refining the concept for agamemnon

#19

Possible colour palette for Agamemnon

#20

After considering my entry I’m going to change the subject…
It’s too complicated for the time I have, so, I’ll do something simpler

I’m gonna do a Beast, some kind of mythological or legendary animal
Dragon, Griff, Hidra…
with some of the parts made of metal, mechanical stuff and gears.

I think it’s more suitable to model, rather than a complicated scene from the greek mythology.

:slight_smile:

The time is really a problem when we intent to do a big scene like yours. A lot of things to do. A simple subject is really a better choice in my opnion. I’m doing a dragon moved by steam power, very simple. In the last challenge I had a big scene but I can’t finished it because of the time. With a simple theme we can dedicate more of our time to less things and as consequence we have a good chance to finished as planned.

Good luck to you my friend and all the best in the challenge!

…Or you could do a scene where Agamemnon is sitting infront of his papers…thinking how to get Achilles into battle again…watching his tools, papers, sculpted map of Troy seaside and walls…on his office…make it metal and steampunky and all…:wink:
