[Dota2] - Naga Siren - Slithereen Knight

Anuxinamoon

Final Image!



Why not have a go at another set? doubt i'll finish in time but its getting easier each time so who knows?

This one I'm not quite feeling the arms and the hips but the rest is roughly how I want it.

Blockout in zbrush:

Pemaktitkis

just WOW

Anuxinamoon

Update on the highpoly for today

Spudnik

Stop. You're making everybody look bad!

And by stop, I mean go go go, looking fantastic as usual!

Skiffy

What the heck! seriously you are on fire lady! This will be your 4th set?? I am very impressed. Not to mention each set was very creative as well. You plan to own the dota2 store or something?

gwaga

Looks amazing, as do all of your sets. A little off topic - but most people won't buy 2 sets for the same hero, so if you're looking to make a lot of money keep this in mind. But I'm sure you're mainly doing it for fun and love of modelling!

Looking forward to see how this turns out

Anuxinamoon

Haha thanks guys! I will never stop! Well for the duration of this comp I won't

Gwaga: I'm not really trying to maximise bang for buck, I'm just making stuff that I want to wear in game and hope people like my fashion sense hahahah!

Update on that highpoly. I'm hoping I'm done, but I'll take a break for a bit and reset my eyes. Hopefully it doesn't need too much work after that and I can start making either the tail or the weapon...
I'm not very good at making swords :<

Okoo

Omg you are awesome Anuxinamoon

Anuxinamoon

Thanks Okoo but I've still got lots to learn

I am thinking this is pretty much done now.

ENODMI

Stop it:)

BrontoThunder

God damn it haha.

Endless amounts of incredible.

Anuxinamoon

haha thanks BT!

Just sayin... but this thing is painful to reduce I wish I had alpha on

marul

You got it wrong, Valve will choose 10 best sets among ALL THE PARTICIPANTS. Seriously, you gotta stop creating more sets, I'm losing my will to model anything at all.

As for this set *sigh*, I couldn't quite figure out the parts that look like kelp but you can try something like coral. Good luck with this one (again)

Anuxinamoon

Marul you should really try to finish your model! How will you get better if you give up!?
I'm doing this mainly for fun as a challenge as I have all this time off.

Anyway bakes are almost done, just gonna do a point light and gradient now

Anuxinamoon

Started the basic texture blockout. Lemmie know any suggestions!

ENODMI

Can you share some of your time off with me:) Looking good. That must have been fun getting that armor under 800:)

rory

Man you work fast. Not the direction I thought you were going with it. That said love it!

Anuxinamoon

Haha Enodmi! I wish! I'm so tired though -_______________-

Thanks Rory

More updates! I dunno what I am doing with those fins. I want to do it in proper lionfish colours but I don't want to deviate from the original colour scheme. :<

Skiffy

so now you have 2 more weeks to make another armor set after this one right? why go for 4 when you can have 5??

Paskie

Dear lord, the quality of your creations is incredible. Hope to see all in the shop. Stellar items!

Pemaktitkis

pleeeeease make something for Lina after finishing this awesome set

Okoo

lol cmon... she already did 4 set dude...

Nannou

You work so fast :O Can you tell little about your workflow? I love your stuff!

Anuxinamoon

Lol Skiffy! I already have a concept for crystal maiden all done up ready to go after this one!
Thanks Paskie!
Permaktitkis: I do have an idea for Lina but I haven't fleshed it out as much as Crystal Maiden.

haha okoo!

Nannou: you can watch some of my workflow on my livestream! https://new.livestream.com/accounts/1676989/events/1654121

I've made some adjustments to the colours of the fins and stuff.

D.Dragoon

I have already decided that I am paying for this set and one of your Enchantress ones because they are amazing. I wish you were making one for windrunner (fav. hero ;p) but this is still amazing.

Anuxinamoon

=O Thanks D.Dragoon for the support! I do have a concept for windrunner on the backburner but I'm not sure if I like it hahaha! I'll have to re-work it a bit before I think about making her

Update, too hot to work but I managed to punch out some kind of sword highpoly.

Caldria

Looking great, I love the colours you've gotten with the lower fins.

Regarding the sword, perhaps it would look better if the fins were on the other end, "covering" the hilt. So it goes over and around her hand - almost like a lance hand protector thing. (she looks pretty knightly)

Anyway, just a suggestion - All your sets look pretty amazing, GL further!

stevoqwerty

Wow, this is amazing. I just started 3d modelling and it took me a good few days to just make half of a bow for Drow, and it's not even a good one.

Mr. Toodles

duuude never stop making items for dota. I dig the flare in this set totally awsome stuff

FrostBite

Nice
Sword looks rly cool

TriggerHappyPuppy

both your work and discipline is very inspiring,, love all four sets you have done so far

Anuxinamoon

Caldria: Thanks mate! yeah I see what you are saying with the sword. I did do something similar when concepting but I didn't like how it was obscuring her hand. The silhouette looked stronger when I placed them forward

stevoqwerty: Just keep making stuff dude! You will get better and better every time you finish something!

Thanks, everyone else!

Okay after fighting with the lionfish theme, I threw it out the window. I think this looks much better now! YAY!

Caldria

Ah yeah, seeing it now with the colour and with the rest of the set. Much stronger! Looking awesome

Born Backwards

Absolutely beautiful.

naruSol

I'll miss the Lionfish coloring, but I can see how this cleans up the design a bit.

Clyptic

Really nice texture work!

Anuxinamoon

Thanks guys!!


All right before the storm hits me, I'll post up my pose idea. Once I get all my renders done I'll submit this lovely (never again will I do this character!!! raaarrrgggggg!!!) Naga

acest

lovely indeed, only comment would be the angle for the final pose, i'd prefer to have the camera slightly toward the top side view so the profile of her helmet and body armour are more clearly defined.

Anuxinamoon

Opps missed your comment in time T______________T I hope this final image still works okay!

All done!

Lennyagony

You know initially i wasn't convinced this concept would work, but you pulled it together and it looks incredible. Nice work

Solution

I have no doubt that one or more of your sets will enter the store.

You could also turn up your in-game settings to get a better picture for the in-game preview image, though even at those settings they look stunning.

Anuxinamoon

I have everything maxed but it still looks like ass :< I dunno what I'm doing wrong. I'm too tired to worry too much right now.

Thanks for the comments :D:D

Okay I really need to sleep!

Skiffy

Awesome stuff! I love how this turned out. Great like the 3 before it.

rory

This turned out lovely! I especially like those swords. I think they look particularly cool in your in-game shots.

ACap

Fantastic job. Love your style. You really push this contest forward)

ENODMI

Nice job... again:)

D4V1DC

nice

Anuxinamoon

Thanks guys

I'd love to videos, getting my stuff all in the client is something I will look into when I get more time after the contest

Konras

Great set. To be honest all of your sets look like they were shipped with the game from the beginning. They will land in client sooner or later, if all 4 of theme will not be on winner list consider it as a handicap from valve given to other contestants

LuCh!

damn, another beauty!

and I was wondering,
which renders do you use for your presentation?
in DOTA2 itself or other software?

Anuxinamoon

Thanks mate
I Use xoliul shader 2.0 in max to get my presentation shots
