Hello Polycounters!

I opened this thread for the sake of progress tracking. I will get this model ready for game engine after I finish the sculpt. After that I will texture it and it is done!

Opened for comments & critiques. I did not think of starting a thread up until this point, sadly I do not have any early WIPs of it. Everything is started from scratch, no base meshes in case anyone is curious about that.

PS.
Some details are missing because ZBrush surface noise does stretching and I cant fight it, so I will just do that when I get to texturing (example - that "robe" hanging from the back of his helmet will be chainmail and there will be chainmail on few more places.)

More to come. Cheers!

for some reason the missing jaw seems to throw the character off for me. Seems like the head is just floating there. I would also dbl check your proportions. The arms seem like they aren't long enough

Jose I agree, his head is kinda floating now, but the final product, in the game will have some sort of VFX smoke coming out of his body so all the areas will be covered in smoke, to add to that creepiness.
Thanks for the critique!

I think you need to add another layer of wear to him. The leathers seem too well kept for being on a completely decomposed body, and his breastplate would be rusty from all that blood he likes to bathe in.

His bones could use some stains and scratches on them, and I'd suggest giving his helmet the same treatment as his breastplate.

Aside from that, the model is very good. Like Jose, I feel like the arms might be short? But that could just be because I'm not used to seeing people without their flesh on.

Nice work on the blood spatter.
