UGAC - II - Once Upon a Time in the Apocalypse

#13

Yeah. Israel is my favorite as well. The most “cowboy” of the bunch. The preacher thing can never be done to death though :slight_smile: Like the blind-samurai it’s a tried and true cliche so overdone it’s iconic. Chitra looks out of place when you see her head. But when you see her with a bare-midriff and chaps you won’t care.

#14

This might not look like much of an update. But I agonized over this for HOURS. Several failed starts and I’m still not happy with the gesture. Anyway I was playing around with Israel’s proportions.

#15

Israel is one of the more intresting guys so far. I like the fast sketch you gave for Israel.

I like all the drawings so far man. Your drawing are pretty damn free and full of movement.

Looking forward to see what comes out of this. So your working together with someone right?

#16

I think I am :slight_smile: but my collaborator hasn’t emailed me back since our initial communique.

#17

Sometimes when I get all blocked up and it feels like I am trying to force it…I push it all to the side and think about playing the game. I think about the character and in my mind I can see his personality. I can see how they talk and move. I think up some sceneros in which they would be in the game and play it through my mind, till I see it…then its like freeze frame and I hold that thought, that pose and things seems to just flow better.

He is a great character man, you got to let him free to be who he needs to be. When you do that things will just flow out of you.

I hope your colaborator gets in touch, but regardless I say keep working on it and keep pushing, if it doesn’t pan out for this, I think you got some great characters for a project you could do and develop.

GL LD.

LordDubu! Hey man, this stuff is looking pretty sweet! Dig the concept too! As far as the competition I hope your partner gets in touch, I would love to see these in 3d! Maybe afterwards I could build one for you! Ha!

Also, about the RPG idea. Never give up! Put together a design document, a pitch bible, a short animation, a comic book. This will help you get your idea out and get known. A lot of stuff starts as just a joke with the creator just wanting to have fun and then BAM! Somebody in power sees it and wants a part of the action. That’s all it takes! I wouldn’t give up on!

Sorry for the ^-- Rant, good luck with this man! Can’t wait to see an update!

Alright Hey,

I’m back. Sorry i was under the impression there was internet in the cabin we rented in Georgia.

Hey we need to get in contact to discuss the models, my aim S/N is “Al Foxhammer” (don’t ask) and i’m pretty much always online. Or if you prefer we could chat through gmail.

#20

No worries Squirrel. Here’s the first orthos to get you started. I’ll work out the details on the goggles. but hopefully this will get you started. It’s midnight here so the body will have to wait until tomorrow night.

#21

Reminds me a bit of the old guy who checked the fuel level in waterworld. I guess that’s mainly the beard and goggles.

#22

Not hard to find this guy. He’s anywhere you go in rural America, places where motor oil is changed, and places where there are motorcycles.

#23

hey. nice sketches. you mind if i kinda steal them? i would love to have a shot at modeling these guys as you 2 make them… not trying to muscle in on your compatition. just something i would like to do :slight_smile:

#24

Go for it. Do a WIP. I’d love to follow your progress on it. Just give me concept credit and give us a link back here from your thread. Oh and don’t enter it in the contest against us :).

#25

thanks alot :slight_smile: and of course ill make sure i credit you. lol and aww. there was me hoping to win using someone elses hard work :stuck_out_tongue: ill start up a thread when i get started later :slight_smile: id love you to have an input :slight_smile: after all, it is your design :stuck_out_tongue:

#26

Very nice sketches overall :slight_smile:
Great orthos mate -always the hardest lol.

Looking forward to the updates :smiley:

#27

Yeah rendering orthos is teh suxorz.

#28

updated the orthos for Squirrel after he gave me some feedback.

#29

All of your concepts are great, I’ve been quite impressed with all your work.

I can’t wait to see these occupy 3d space.

#30

Nice job.! I am also awaiting the 3d creation !

@Dabu :: although i must admit i liked israels beard more when it was really pointy on the bottom. Gives him lots of character :slight_smile: and thats what these guys are right? characters. :thumbsup:. Also, I would love to see him with a monacle… like it gives him special vision through one eye or something.!

keep up the good work…

and get busy squrrel :twisted: :smiley: just kidding

#31

I don’t know. The contest is over. I think that means I lost my modeler. Though I’d be willing to finish out the concepts if he wanted to finish the model anyway.

#32

You should make some full body turnarounds of them and post a thread (or post them in here) telling folks they’re free to model them. I bet there would be interest. You could even ask that they post the models in the same thread. Sort of a mini-contest like the MGAC. No prize, but the entrants get to compete with each other and you get to see a 3d representation of your cool character designs.
