Update:

Decided to start this again fresh as i've finally decided on a theme for this. Going to do a group of sculpts rather then any game meshes, creating a team of characters (akin to the group in Golden Axe, Streets of Rage, etc).
Regarding style, i'll be looking at inspiration such as "Knights Crown" and "Darkstalkers".
Some character ideas and proportion comparisons.

I think i'm done with the sculpt now so I just need to do the swords and then i'll be moving over to the low poly.
Slowly getting this guy finished but its getting there (The sculpt is at 30 mil in ZBrush so i've had to decimate it to about 8 mil for XNormal).
Current render (keyshot).
