Stylized blacksmith project

Amaury

Hi, here's a WIP of my first real character. It's a blacksmith




close up on the head :


the concept (i still don't know how i'll do the beard) :




All I did before was some low poly thingys, I'm trying to improve my skills on organic high poly modelling. And I need a portfolio pretty soon for my internship this summer

Crits are welcome !

I've progressed on the body

That is SICK!!! like, you can tell he's a blacksmith, but its a very original design. lots of personality here. nice work!!!

You got a smile out of me that looks cool to me.

Don't forget to give much needed love to them hands and feet, i think we all have areas we dislike but thankfully if you do those right one time with a decent res for both high and low you never have to do it again.

Heeey. This is pretty sweet man. For your first character? Impressed. I've yet to do a character and I think you just inspired me to give it a go. Keep polishing this guy. Looking forward to seeing your solution for the beard.

I made some progress on this, the low poly of the whole body is done, here is a WIP of the high poly clothing




And here is a test bake for fun in real time

Here is a better real time test

slowly getting there, i remade all of the textures and started working on the clothes, the character is already rigged and skinned and will be ready to be posed with clothes soon

Looking cool! Keep going!

WIP of the day, still got to make his belt, I think that he won't have hair, he looks better bald

I'd recommend giving him a hammer as well as the up and coming belt to better get across the 'blacksmith' . Maybe a thick, heavy apron would amplify that to.
