Good day to everyone!
This is going to be my work thread for the Dota 2 competition. Currently I am in the concept stage, having just decided on items for Pudge.
1. Concept:
The lore states that Pudge is always cleaning the Fields of Endless Carnage, however it does not state what he does with any of the non-living things. As such, I have thought that Pudge could put some of this to use. Maybe in his patchwork style, but that is severely limited to my ability to sketch and model.
Currently I am going to do three parts of Pudge:
- Head
- Weapon
- Off-hand
2. Planning:
Head: Helmet
Pudge doesn't want to ruin his hair, so he picked up this helmet to keep it safe.
- Helmet scavenged from a body (possible blood stain)
- Ill-fitting or comically sitting on his head
- Resembling a coif or bucket-like helmet
- Side flaps, if included, will jut out from his head
- Colour scheme: Silver/Red/Brown(/Gold) (I am thinking dirty, bloody steel with the possibility of some gold edges)
Weapon: Sword hook
Sometimes you need a sharp wit to get to the point, other times you need a sharp hook.
- Sword, double edged, bent into a hook shape (Think longsword)
- Flat edge would be the inside of the curve (ie bladed edges face left/right on main body)
- Colour scheme: Silver/Red/Brown(/Gold) (I am thinking dirty, bloody steel with the possibility of some gold edges)
Off-hand: Broken axe
Fresh meat by the axe load.
- Broken off axe head
- Large flat blade that extends beyond the grip
- Possibly chipped
- Colour scheme: Silver/Red/Brown(/Gold) (I am thinking dirty, bloody steel with the possibility of some gold edges)
So far as drawing goes, I am going to have a crack at it sometime soon, so stay posted
Any feedback would be appreciated!
Cheers

I have some sketches done up for my helmet idea:
HELMET DESIGN 1
HELMET DESIGN 2
HELMET DESIGN 3
HELMET DESIGN 4
They aren't the greatest, but I quite like how 2 and 3 look. 4 was my attempt at something radical and interesting, while 1 was a safe trial.
I'd like some feedback, if possible

Helmet 6
Defiantly try sketching out the idea of having an asymmetrical helm. Being the horrid thing he is, he's probably broke his helm already or made an attempt to weld it back together... incorrectly.
