Hello everyone,

I started this redneck yesterday. Comments and critics are welcome.








To be continued...

Stirls

Awesome!

Thanks ^^

Deathstick

The lanky proportions are pretty sweet, can't wait to see it finished!

Colt 45 anyone? And I don't mean the gun

Looking very good
The stylistic proportions give it a very good vibe, great job on the details too.

Thanks ^^

Stirls

His feet feel a bit bare. I know you probably don't want to cover them up, but have you considered adding stuff there? Perhaps a band-aid, a scar?

Steve Schulze

Or a pair of thongs/flip-flops.

fisher

awesome '-'
but,
I think the nose it's little bit "fat"
And a pair of flip-flops it's a good call
and just for fun..

I like the character, however:

1) The folds are too busy and all over the place imo. It's a bit of a hard read. I'd recommend cleaning that up. Sometimes less is more.

2) The metatarsals are too prominent on the feet and it's very distracting. You don't really need those to show that much. Some soft and relatively hard edges can do the trick with the bones showing just a bit to indicate they are there if you really feel they are needed. I'd experiment some but once you clean up the folds you won't need that much detail down there. And your diffuse can always break it for visual interest purposes. If he isn't wearing socks or shoes and personal hygiene is not a priority I'd say his feet are probably not very clean.

Your character reminds me a lot of a tutorial for Mudbox 2010 made by Jonas Thornqvist. Even though the style is different and his is wearing socks maybe it can be of help. You can find the tutorial here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aB5KGwxKqjc

Good luck!

Stirls, Jackablade,that'd be good I was going to add some details on his feet but I was wondering what to put on them.

Fisher,

Dr grim, your comment is very helpful. There are way too many folds on the overalls. You're right, less is more, I'll try to clean it up and post an update soon.

Thank you guys for the advices

Deathstick

He looks awesome!

I think you could start messing around with some dirt/stains/sun bleach on the clothing and feet though so he doesn't look so showerly in his overalls

Hey, Yaxx, sorry/not sorry to resurrect your thread.

I was just clicking on people whose work looked nice in the "what are you working on.." thread and it let me to this.Just wanted to say that I really like this guy. Did you ever take him further than this?

Seeing this reminded me of one of the first sculpts I ever started.

I did it when I first started using Mudbox but I never took it further than this. I think I was trying to run before I could walk! haha.
I dug the model up and popped it into Zbrush to have a look at it. I still like where I was going with it so now I might pick up the torch again. 
So thanks for the inspiration!
