Thanks mate! I don't know about the skin yet, I want to use this style, because the shield looks really cool in my opinion, but I might change a hero, for example making him possessed by the shield. also the shield was a gate originally if I'm not mistaken, so I might add some detail to make it look built from two parts. just some ideas for now..

Khronos

jeebs

then I guess I will give it a shot.
this is how I imagine him in his evil form.

cpcg

cool concept!

jeebs

thank you, I will also change a shield from dragon to demon.
I'm adding some darksiders style, hope it's ok like that.

(original on the right)

Squals

Really screams Darksiders, love it

mrnunez

Really like your concept of a possessed Braum too. Keep it up!, is getting really nice

jeebs

glad you like it gonna start sculpting asap!

Skyerzz

I'm a sucker for Darksiders style. I'm loving it, but I suggest designing the edges of the shield to be different from the original. Make it more your own.

STRIKER

Please push it away from this design

should be fun

jeebs

STRIKER yeah I was planning to do this anyway. didn't put much effort into 2d because I suck at drawing..

anyway made a quick blockout. many parts are still in their early stage. right now I'm wondering if the silhouette is ok or should I still play a little bit with proportions.

jeebs

a little bit of update, made a shield a little bit different.

Golden Yak

Fine lookin' stache sculpt.

Khronos

jeebs

thanks guys.
More update
My first attempt to sculpt his body.

Shanteez

Very Stylized Anatomy! Looks GREAT!

juancaratino

OMG so very nice and clean sculpt, Congrat love the work, .....
ho...your portfolio link? :poly124:

jeebs

glad you like it

almost done with the body sculpt, gonna change proportions, still not happy with them, going to change his face a bit and redo the shield..

Vrav

Lots of fun details in this whole piece. Good work!

Goldo_O

Looking good moustache buddy!
At some point I would try to merge the two subtools and work on the transition between the head and the torso.
Don't spend too much time working on the parts that will be covered by your armour!

STRIKER

the shield is looking sick!

Lazar

This is going to be so freaking sweet when it's finished. I can feel it in mah bones!

slosh

I dig the sculpt so far but i think you can push his proportions...smaller head, big hands. Basically just push the stylization...seriously nice so far though!

Stuey

looking good man shield is boss.

jeebs

thanks a lot guys!

Goldo_O - you're right, I'm not planning to spend a lot of time on the legs, just gonna focus on his torso, because I'm planning to give him less armor, more skin.
STRIKER, Stuey - glad you like the shield, but I'm planning to change it, not a lot just a bit, but right now I don't like his horns and some other parts.
slosh - thanks man, I agree 100 %, I was planning to do that when I finish the body and make him more stylized, gonna experiment a lot.
Lazar - thank you

jeebs

some more update, finished hands, and changed his proportions a bit, making his head smaller made him look a lot better, gone experiment some more.

D_Wall

niiiiiiiiiice, his pec muscles seem alittle strandy, which might screw with your ao, but that's pretty nit picky at this point xD

head does seem alittle big though for braum

nice work!~

Clyptic

Pretty nice sculpt, but you might want to retouch the hands. At the moment his fingers look like the exact same finger duplicated four times and stuck on.

Khronos

.

jeebs

thanks guys perhaps you are right, made his head even more smaller, and also made a little paintover.

slosh

Looking good man! I think this and the Braum by Goldo_O are two of my favorite entries so far! great work...

jeebs

thanks man, hope to finish it on time.

more update after a big break

jeebs

I think I'm done with high and low poly. Low poly shield is 2500 tris, and character 6500 tris, gonna try and fit everything into one texture sheet, because half of the shield is mirrored with some parts asymmetrical, and character is also half mirrored except a belt and shoulder armor. right now with all those gears his body doesn't look that big, so I'm thinking about changing his proportions when his gonna be texture later on.

YBourykina

awesome job on the sculpt! can't wait to see him finished!

jeebs

thank you I'm trying to do as much as I can right now. texturing will take a lot of time for me later.

Made uv and baked some maps, here you can see ao diffuse only, no lighting. there are some baking errors, but it will be easily fixed later.

haZe

Bake came out great! Details transferred well. Looking good!

Amyms

Looking amaze!

jeebs

glad you like it

made first color pass.

jmturbo

WOW it´s looking really cool bro

Hellstern

Looks very promising, can't wait to see further progress.

erroldynamic

Nice job, love his silhouette. I like where you're going with the textures, but maybe push the contrast and brightness a bit more on the clothing and accessories. Looking forward to more!

slosh

Siiiiick! Skin looks a bit sunburned red so maybe bring that back a tad. The outfit has some value separation but feels pretty monochromatic...maybe add some subtle hue shifts to break that up? Great work so far...looking forward to the shield!

jeebs

thanks guys!

yeah I agree I added some contrast, changed some accessories colors, and changed his skin color, also played a bit with shield colors.

slosh

Oh man, looking REAL good...where are his eyes?

jeebs

thanks man! I'm still thinking about it, was planing to make a lot of glowing bits like lava, and thought that he could also have glowing eyes. At least I'm gonna experiment with it today.

That cracked me up^))

Lava eyes - nice!

Turret

Looking sweet. I think it would be safe to add a bit more saturation to the colors so he pops off the background a little more. Looking forward to seeing the final result.
