raise eyebrow
Watch out for us elves… :wink:

Oh wait, we’re on the same team! Just like Gimli and Legolas. grin

Good luck to you too, Jassar, and May the best CGTalker win !

Well LavenPillay, ironically, my character will not be an elf nor dwarf :smiley: I’m thinking (or sketching really) of a warewolf warlord, strong an scary enough to be the leader of warewolf-packs that have no mercy upon their enemies!
He is a mutant of some sort, bred to be the strongest of all warewolves, probably a mix of warewolf and Orc ( now that’s cool huh? )…
Wolves usually hate fire, but since he has that Orcish blood in him I’m thinking of making his energy type of fire/lava.
Fire goes well with our forum colors too :slight_smile:

I’ll be posting some sketches when I have something cool to show.
Cheers!

Sound interesting character you are planing to do here my friend :smiley:

waiting to see your first concept … this will be a war to the death ^^

Good luck Jassar, and May the best CGTalker win !

Concept sounds interesting, go tear 'em apart!

#6

Thanks guys :slight_smile:
Here’s a rough ( very rough ) sketch. I want the armor to be bigger of course. The first name option is Nardeeb ( nar= fire, deeb= wolf in arabic)
You can see him wearing the forum’s red and black banner on his shoulders … :slight_smile:

More “better” sketches are on the way. Also, I’m not sure if I should give him a helmet?

#7

Jassar, shake the ground! Ha ha! :thumbsup: :bounce:

My best wishes.

#8

Thanks KU2GUN :buttrock:

#9

Very, very nice.

Just one thing tho.
At first glance at his head/face, the impression i got was of a reptilian face.
So if i hadn’t read your backstory, I might’ve thought it was a draconian race.

Just mentioning in case that helps clean up the final.

Maybe raise the part of the skull above the eyebrows a bit so the head is less flat ?
And/or add a ruff of hair around his neck or going down his back a bit ?

But its lookin’ great and I recommend not adding a helm.

And Nardeeb has a nice “ancient” sound to it. I likes.

#10

nice start :slight_smile:

Although i agree with LavenPillay … same feeling here

it is rough sketch , so you can do adjustment now … i suggest to make him more musculature sense he looks thin for the time been .

good luck… :thumbsup:

#11

Thanks for the great notes guys :slight_smile:
I will make him more “wolf” but with a twist.
Here’s the summary of my character:-

Name: Nardeeb
Race: hybred between warewolf and orc
Class: warlord
Artifact: not sure yet, probably a huge staff with pointy things sticking out of it…
Magic/energy: Fire

#12

nice work …

good luck…

#13

Ok, tell me which head looks better>>>

A or B?

#14

personally B for sure…

#15

I honestly like B
dont know why, just seemes more evil I guess :slight_smile:

#16

haha! good luck jassar! and may CGS slay its enemys without mercy! :smiley:

it looks more original and cooler? :smiley: so, uhh… yeah id too say B!

#17

Cool! I’ll base my design on concept B then :slight_smile:

#18

yeah B was definately better, it was more human with the high nosed bridge, and less dog like, but it gave the facial structure more depth and interest, and gave it more of a scowling look

#19

Ok, so now to the weapon. I’m not sure what to choose: long and slim or short and bulky?
I’m leaning toward the short and bulky.


#20

Ok, the weapon sketches were not that interesting, here’s another one for the armor.
More stuff are to be added I hope.

As you can see I didn’t make him very bulky, I don’t want him to turn into a Tauron lol.
any ideas for the armor?
