Night Hunter Rengar

suspectlogic

Hey guys, I'm going to take a stab at making Night Hunter Rengar.







Still in the rough, spending some time struggling with anatomy and proportions

suspectlogic

Second WIP. Adjusted the head to be more panther like, and added some base blothing. going to start playing with the design a bit more.

Looking good there, I like the direction! Keep at it!

I'm still playing with the design while trying to keep the composition of the original skin. First thing changed was the pauldron. Now it has animal rib inserts rather than the sword blades the original had. I gave him an archery chest guard over his left breast, but I'm finding that it's getting lost under the hood.

suspectlogic

changes made with the design and composition. Some more asymmetrical elements, like the the hood and the breast plate. Also took the diamond that's usually on his pauldrond and implemented it as a fastener for the breast plate.

I have a free weekend ahead of me, so I'm hoping to update by Monday! Feedback is welcome, I'm still blocking this thing out and trying different things out.

suspectlogic

After a nice thanks giving break, I'm back at work on the night hunter:)
been referencing more medieval armor and refining the design. I wanted to have the sculpting done by December 1st, but at this rate, I probably wont finish the sculpt until next weekend.

I love the direction this is going. It does seem like you lost a little bit if the rounder jaguar style head though. He is more lynx like now, though still awesome!

thanks. I tweaked the face a little with the time i had. I feel like the length of his hair might be pushing the look toward that of a lynx, hopefully this helps a little.

Hey all, I'm still here :P Due to time restraints, I had to jump into making the low poly. here's the night hunter in zbrush:





and here's the low poly bake, unlit in Maya viewport 2.0:




He totals 9, 509 tris.

Feedback of course is still welcome, i'm going to be crunching on this for the next two night

suspectlogic

I missed the deadline by an hour, but here he is! Good luck to those who submitted! time for sleep....

That's too bad. He's cool. Since you have time, I think he could use a more dynamic pose.

Thanks!

I managed to rig him and give him a better pose. it's based on part of his recall animation

You should've given his face much more UV space. Probably like 25% out of total.

25% seems like a stretch, but i understand how the head should probably use a little more uv space. still glad that it holds up well when the texture is reduced to half size

more detile will be batter:) nice one
