DWIV - 3D - JWest

jwest

Second attempt at DW but since I actually have time I plan and seeing this character all the way through until the end. Going for the warmachine class. More of an environment and prop type of artist so I think this kind of character will be fun for me.

7!

I'm diggin' #2

indian_boy

Thanks guys, it's funny on my school forums everyone loved 3 so I did a quick concept of 3. I'm gonna do some more of the other numbers soon though.

This one is a cyborg

I liked best your third too. I was thinking about the weapons, since it is a cyborg warmachine, meat blended with metal, it is quite useless to have original arms carring huge weapons too.
What if the big real guns are in cyborg hands and in her real hand you got someting smaller, like real guns or sort of dummy laser targeting system? she could have stretched out arms rather than replicating mechanical ones, and you can achieve a cooler pose.

I like the repetition of form, myself.

Comign along well, JWest

7 for me, with more juggernaut look to it.

Deto

I like the 3rd one you've developed further, but what if it was more cyberpunkishly dark and somewhat crude? While I have nothing against clean sci-fi, it might be more fun for you to go crazy with it

jwest

Thanks alot guys for the comments. I got a suggestion to try and draw the 3rd one from the front to see if it is as interesting and so this is what I came up with. I also changed a few things and tried to make it more rough and cyborgish.

this is looking great. from the thumbnails, 3 was my choice and you might want to conisder the possibilities of 7 its more dynamic.

richkid

i would say make the feet WAY bigger. right now it doesnt read as very supportive.

Kamui

wont be a war machine, just call it a cyborg and everyone will be happy.
war machines can't have any flesh.

jwest

Cool thanks for the feedback, I think I am going with cyborg.

So here is some modeling progress. Experimenting alot trying to get an interesting and functional looking form.

TheZeke

I really like this concept. Having the exposed human torso looks really cool, but how does she see? I'd add some cameras or other visuals, and maybe some more machinery around her hips to drive them robo-legs

I'd like to see how this ends up. I had an idea for a human-torso-in-machine character, but I went with just cutting off the human limbs and replacing them with mech limbs

Well since DW 4 finished ages ago this is is a personal peice now I take it? I think it could be pretty cool if you keep going.
