I decided to go ahead with Jack instead of Rasputin. The more I started to think about the characters the more I started to like Jack.

Thanks CGG! 
Alright so I got sort of sidetracked with Half Life 2 at the moment… yes I am weak :D.
Anyway I’ll continue shortly after :).
if you’re going to be inspired by the faces of evil and judging by your previous challenge this is gonna rock 
Right, now with Half Life 2 out of the way… I can continue working on this project. I’ve updated the frst post with some additional information, but there will be more added later.
I’ll be working on concepts for a while and probably start modelling beginning of January.
I’ll keep you guys updated with any new information when there is any.
Ok… so I just started modelling for the hell of it. Playing around with body proportions right now, as you can probably tell from the picture, I’ll be going for a thin, lanky but muscular look. I’ll be drawing up concepts on my trip. Won’t really have any acces to a computer anyway.
So here’s the progress for now… Any comments?
Looking like a real nice flow there man, there isn’t much to crit, but whats there is good.
Ugh… got too busy to really work on it. An now I can’t really finish it in time. Anyway this is the furthest that I got. I uploaded the pictures for anybody who’s interested in the construction.
Neck detail
[left]It turned out to be a good exercize in polygon flow… but that’s about it. I got kind of carried away and took way too long. I’m still not too happy with some parts, especially shoulders.[/left]
[left]Ah well… :shrug: [/left]
I just love the polygonal flow.
looking ace apart from the fact that it’s nothing special yet in relation to jack the ripper.
keep on trucking.
This caught my eye as I’m working on a ‘Jack the Ripper’ piece at the moment, but a concept in 2D. This model is looking very nice so far. Very clean polys and flow, with good proportions. Looking forward to its progression.
Really Cool.I love the polygon flow.Do you happen to have any tutorials or anything?Because the flow of your loops and rings are awesome.
Equinoxx - Thanks! And you’re absolutely right. I got carried away and wasted too much time of perfecting something that I lost interest and enough time to finish up.
Poshspice - Thanks for the compliments, unfortuanetly this model will not be finished anymore, I simply have no desire to work on it anymore. I am however interested in your Jack the Ripper piece. Any possibilty of getting a little preview?
LiquidMetal - Thanks as well! I don’t really have any tutorials on this type of subject. However I used anatomy drawings of a humanfigure depicting muscle groups as referance. And so I tried to follow the flow of muscle as much as possible. Also I like to keep polygons quaded, so you’ll rarely see any triangles in my models. Unless there game models of a lower resolution.
Sorry to hear you’re giving up. Your anatomy reference work out well, because the mesh topology is excellent. Good luck on future efforts.
amazing topology. I saved that stuff STRAIGHT to my HD for reference cause its pretty much perfect.
Thanks all!!!
Thought I would post the link as to where I found the reference I used. You would be surprised as to what you can find using Google image finder.
Anyway here is the link, apparently the image was part of a tutorial, don’t know where the author got the picture from though.
