DWIII - 3D - Belltann - Ulfgard
polycounter lvl 17
Hoho then it begins. Concept will come soon but here is a brief concept idea for ya:
*No name for now* comes from the cold, hostile and tribal home. He earned his place in the tribe and was gratned the gift of possession. With the help of dwarfs they captured and imprisoned one of the powerfull norse giants into his skin, and sealed it with a runearmour crafted deep in the dwarfs burrow. He now leads his tribe in time of peril bla bla blah
I want to do a possessed leader of vikings, with an big hammer, scandinavien influenced runes and markings, A drink horn and maby a book of power.
i think ill go for the warlord with wind/thunder.

Going to work on the colour palette now.
Hehe anyway.. I feel that attention to detail is always something that impress me. Padding on the armour and belt nuckles that make sense, etc is worth paying attention to and this is such a case where the end result will be better if you manage to incorporate small details like that!
Great sketch btw!
Good Luck mate... er I mean DIE!
Hehe thanks mayn.
Here is a new one.
I'd work on getting some bigger and more definite shapes in the amour. His chest area is pretty confusing at the moment.
Good luck!
Shit really need to get something to eat. The downside of being in the zone
Keep up the concepts, you'll come up with something sweet. No need to rush onto the modeling phase. We've got time.
Here is another version, it doesnt look norse enough, but allot of rune and dragon carvings will fix that.
The circle with the death knot are poking out (is that concave?).
Light grey = Leather.
-caseyjones
looks great so far
bounchfx: Hehe dont worry, there is going to be allot of beardy lovelyness.
rollin: Oh really? I was a bit sceptical about the silluett of it. Ill see if i can fix that from the side view. It might change all together thou.
Just sad that i cant do this all day long, works takes up to much time.

How about a huge lynx head as a 'shoulderpad' on his right shoulder or so.. could make his silhouette more interesting.
Well that might be a bit clishe
Merecraft: I thought about putting a head on the shoulder but i wanted to do something different.. cant say i succeded
Jackablade: Hopefully.
Now there's enough fur but obviously it needs some carcasses hanging from here and there. MORE CARCASSES!
rollin: Thanks mayn. The clothes need to fit better with the armour now, he look a bit top heavy. Maby giving him metal kneepad and adding som leather straps on his body?
but your armordesign looks so light, i think there isn´t a big problem with weight, atm it looks so bc of the strong color contrast
Ah well... See your cracked skull on the battlefield!
(awesome concept the last one, can't wait to see it realized)
rollin and kzerza: Heres a shineguard. I chose to put it on just one leg, to break up the symetri and have some more flesh to put tattoos on.
cgmonkey: Who are you calling goatsucker!? Ill make a meadpint of yur skull! Sure bring it on, i'll be waiting...
Wee discovered how to make thumbnails.
Played around with the idea of giving him a huge armour moose...with a piss n viniger attitude against non-polycounters.
Awesome work so far keep at it!
but its time consuming and its hard to get all onto the final shot
ask fogman...
Valandar: I was attacked by a drunk one once. If you ever have appletrees and liver near the woods, pick em up before they get fermented and loaded with alcohol.
Irreal: Well see about that.
Here is the final armour for the viking, so now its just to get a colour scheme, a hammer design and just make the damn thing. I'll just have fun with the face.
kinda reminds me of a He-Man character.
VERY COOL!
want to see this in 3d now
Thanks ya'll.

Erm... I was quoting the credits to Monty Python and the Holy Grail...
the feet look like stumps, maybe have one of them angled a bit? like zis:
