[Dota 2] - Slardar - Treasure of the ancients

god3ila

EDIT (DONE):

Okay,
Done for me, I've been awaked all night long. To be honest, I'm totally not happy of the result, but it's here.
Long hours trying to import those, a real pain in the ass, but succeeded in the end.:)


The complete set is here : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=111262763





Hope you like it anyway. And now, I'm going to sleep :poly142:

Okay, let's give it a shot. It's probably way too late, but I'll try to step in, and do something not too bad... Hope so.
To be honest with you fellas, I'm totally strangers to DOTA and all other MOBA games, so I'll try to keep the spirit of the game.

I've choosed Slardar, just cuz I like the funky design of the character, and the story line.:)



So this is how I'm going to process : first find a weapon, and then I'm going to create the armor pieces according to the weapon.
Here is different shapes I've been working on. I've tried to find something like trident / spear / wand.



Time is running out, so I've made a choice, I guess if I weren't in the hurry, I would have tried multiple weapons, but this is not the case...
This are the results and the process :




And now I'm working on the 2 other pieces, according to this.
Hope you like and hope I'll be right on time to deliver.

Gorgeous weapon!

I'd love to see what it looks like in-game.

Looking forward to seeing the other two pieces

Tamarin

beautiful. really nice to see your concept and drawing evolution. The final sketch is really great.

Anuxinamoon

Wicked looking concept! I hope you make it in time

Thanks guys for your comments.
Still working on it, here's a WIP sculpt and a new concept. One week left, and trying to working harder better faster stronger (®Daftpunk), I hope I'll succeed.

Sculpt WIP :



Helmet Concept :

Quick update with the final sculpt of the spear, and I now working on the helmet sculpt.

god3ila

Helmet sculpt almost done, with some adjustments / reshaping, trying to make it more visually "readable", which was not the case in the concept.

Badass!

OtrickP

Mmmmmm, I really want to open a Beer with that bad boy!

Cheers! looking great.

god3ila

Thanks fellas. I'm pretty happy to have two more weeks, so I guess I'll finish it on time.

Here is the final sculpt of the helmet, and the concept for the arms.

Hope you like it.

I prefer the helmet concept, the final sculpt is a bit too futuristic for dota universe imho

Gareth_Thomas

Some awesome looking concepts here. Definitely the best Slardar set I've seen. Great work keep it up!

god3ila

@acest : I guess you're right, it's a bit too nice and sharp, obviously cuz of a lack of scratches that could make it more live, I'll correct that. For the rest, I've reshaped the front, just because "less is more", and I've removed the kind of fabrics rope, cause of a technical aspect. This kind of thing should move around, not be rigid and I don't even know if I can skin it. I'll work a bit much on this piece, thanks for your opinion.

And thanks Gareth_Thomas. I'm glad you like it.

There it is, the arms sculpt WIP, and the scratches in addition on the helmet :





[EDIT]

Arms sculpt done. I've moved the blade, it did not fit where it was supposed to be.
