Dodgewars Characters

dwunkypengy

Hey!
I'm an artist for 8RedPixels and I wanted to share what I was working on for our game Dodgewars.

Both of these characters are Wips :P
First one is Aphrodite, second one is Pallas.
I'm very open to criticism so feel free to fire away

Would suggest sculpting them with palms facing downwards, once you hit skinning that rotation of the arm will not do you any favors deformation wise.

oh absolutely, what I do before retopologizing is rotate the forearm. I just find sculpting the forearm muscle easier this way ;P

nice shapes, only zbrush?

It's coming along but I find your proportions and posture to be a bit odd overall. I'd recommend looking into anatomy a bit more. A few main point would be that the torso may be a bit long and the arms are short. The elbows should line up with the waist when at rest. Also your creases such as the ones on the chest and stomach are a bit intense. Here is a bit of a paintover which I hope may be better than my lack of ability to explain through words

Indeed it was created only in Zbrush, started from Zspheres.

Hey thanks for the advice! I made some adjustments to her arms, I do think I'll leave the torso length in there for style purposes . Here's an update, completely redid hair and made some adjustments to feet, still working on her though
