secon alien number2 - modeling


#1

Hi Kirt,

since you said if you have more than one hero in the other thread, then you can choose the best, and i really also would like modeling the alien2 i thought i could give it a try. hope you and wiz (and may be others already started on this guy) do not mind. kirt, i like your concepts very much and it is fun modeling them.

this is just to find the proportions, the hands and shoes in particular are very rough. what do think, may i go on ? (again modeled in zbrush)

well…it seems to have some problem in the side view…probably you have to correct the position of the shoulders and the hips relating to the body (=from pelvis to chest).

anyway, generally it sounds good! :slight_smile:

:wink:

Yeah, I agree with cutnpaste. The shoulders need to come back and the overall shape of the torso needs to be adjusted. Think of his body as a ball carried inside of a bag. His head looks good, but maybe a bit too large. And finally the legs need more width and the feet need to be shortened by about 1/3.

i worked on all the crits. also made the head slightly smaller and worked a little on the hands. texture is just for my fun :wink:

how about him now ?

maybe the hips are still strange…but the last choice is for Kirt!

I think he’s really missing the mass of his torso right now. He just doesn’t look the same as my concept for some reason. Head seems a bit big still.

The upper arms are kind of confusing too. Is the lump in the middle his bicep or shoulder? If it’s his bicept, it needs to be smaller. If it’s his shoulder, it’s way too low.


#9

ok i tried to get him some mass. changed the arms, that is made them much rounder. is it now going the right direction ?

and some overview. hope you like him kind of now… he is more tricky than i thought.

no comments on this version of the alien ? is it that bad ? also, kirt, could you take a look at the cow modeling and comment that ? thanks.


#14

It’s not bad … but I’m trying to determine why it looks different than my concept. General shape looks good, but something is off about the whole thing. I’ll probably have to draw over the image to nail it down. I’ll get back to you shortly on this one.


#15

yes, my alien looks different from your drawing. i can see that. i tried to find out the reason, but i cannot see what is the problem, sorry i am not that experienced.

if you could find time to draw over my renderings, that would be very helpful. ( the box the alien is carrying in your drawing hides a large part of his body. )


#16

Added a front pose to the concept art. Maybe that will help?


#17

thanks ! i am back to work…


#18

i think he is getting better. what do you think, kirt ? (shoes are still very wip)

Yes, he’s getting better. We’ll just have to keep tweeking and getting new concept drawings until he looks perfect. I’ll give you some more usefull critique later this evening. Don’t have much free time right now.

But, I just wanted you to know I saw it and it’s much better than the previous version. :thumbsup:
