Latest Update: Final Image: Medusa Steambot

#2

first idea really - maybe the mummy curse from Tutankhamun tomb.

#3

Great Work here! A SteamMummy :thumbsup: Nice concept!!!

#4

thank you! :thumbsup: just trying to come up with some ideas. Good luck to All.

#5

an idea for using medusa in my image. Different bg and better clothing… and more steam!

#6

I think i am going to go for the Medusa Myth. medusas head - still working on the rest of the charater. the idea is based on after her head has been cut off by Perseus. she will have a robotic like arm attached to her head holding her up.

#7

an idea for the colouring of madusas head.

#8

the beginnings of the arm that is controlling Medusa head.

#9

added the basic teeth and inside mouth. need to add detail to the head and texture it all.

#10

Hehe, nice start, loving the facial expression, updates…!

#11

:slight_smile: thank you.

#12

hey there .

nice start i like the mechanical parts.

the head i dont like yet.
the way the jaw looks just isnt nice.
imagine what would happen when he closes his mouth!
the upper teeth would get slammed into lower gums
the lower teeth would get hammered into the nose.

when u open your own mouth you will notice that your lower jaw actually rather moves back than forth. also the edges of the mouth get pulled up.

i would also consider overworking the teeth and adding gums. they add credibility to a face.

the hard line beneath the eyes also sticks out.
when you look in the mirror and do that kind of facial expression youll notice that there will only be a hard line on the upper part not on both sides.

when you improve these things i think your medusa will improve a lot i think

thanks for the comment. i agree there is still more work to be done on the head as well as the details to the inside of the mouth. Still needs a lot of work ! i will try out some new size style teeth as well.

#14

changed size of teeth - slight modeling done to inside of mouth - added more detail to the mechanical arm. added wires from neck and slight change to face.

#15

some of the scene layout - might have a really industrial look in the bg?
first base edit of the model man turning to stone.

#16

took photos of the really cloudy day - composited the photos together in a way i thought might be appropriate to the image. added more metal.

#17

Nice it’s gone better. Keep it up. I might keep on visting you for your progress.

#18

thank you - it feels like the piece is flowing a bit better now.:wip:

#19

textured the eyes using my cats eyes as a ref. Added more to the robot-style arm.

#20

did some detail modelling and first texture for face. added large gas pipe in bg - needs more work as well as texturing.
