Count Beast

K rad

Hi all! Yesterday night I started playing with some ideas. Here's what's coming out - the first WiP. It's going to be a more realistic and a bit different take on Disney's beast : )

LATEST UPDATE:










FIRST WiP

K rad

Slowly moving forward... Still many placeholders and adjusting proportions

how do you upload images on this forum?

K rad

Hi, thanks : ) I put it in my dropbox folder and get URL from there. Then click "attach image" and paste the URL.

Wow the beard/mustache look really nice man ! This is looking really cool so far ! 

K rad

Thank you for the kind words! : )

RuiShi

Looks killer! He has a wonderful look on his face, and that beard has lovely form to it, so excited to see this one come along!

BenEvrard

i really like the idea OO!

K rad

Thank you guys! Really appreciate that!

So now that I've already got a better idea of what I want to do I started working on one of the props. It's still unfinished, but I'm calling it for today : )

Damik

That's one good ass looking book!

Oqtopus

Hey , i was wondering for the decoration on the book, did you use an alpha for that or how did you do it?

K rad

Thanks Damik! Glad you like it! : )
Oqtopus: I drew a mask on a plane, then exctracted it and sculpted by hand.

Oqtopus

oooh thats smart , thanks !

Ave

Baller - Im guessing its prone to change, but my crit for the book would be to leave some area's of rest. You've got a lot of things going on, but they are all similar sized shapes and its quite busy. 

K rad

Thanks for the suggestion Ave! I'll definitely think about that once I put some more details on the beast and see how it looks together. Thanks again! : )

Konras

Really nice detailing! Also wow, your beast beats disney one! We all know that intellect is most sexy after all haha

duncan

so much rad so quick. I am pretty keen to see some more.

K rad

Thank you so much, guys!

BhushanArekar

Fast and superb.

RogerP

this is looking so good already!

vickgaza

Awesome progress so far man! Looks rad ! 

Nicod

How on earth could you make this book so fast? What kind of magic is it?

K rad

Thank you so much everyone!
@NICOD - Well, that was like 15+ hours of work, I just squeezed it into 2 days hehe

Here's another progress shot. A small one, but it's something : )

astuteSquirrel

Kudos, he's coming along very nicely.  I'm enjoying his hands, feet and big his ol' beard.  They give him a lot of character.

Intervain

super cool so far... I'm personally not a fan of the feet, they're super clunky looking in comparison to the rest but I'm sure you'll still refine those Looking forward to more for sure!

K rad

@astuteSquirrel - Thank you! Glad you're enjoying the sculpt : )

@Intervain - Thank you for taking the time to comment on my work, ms Magdalena! My idea about the feet was to make them kinda big and clunky to also show that he can't wear shoes : ) However, I'm definitely going to mess around with them and try to find something more appropriate for the overall design after your suggestion!

I really like this character and small details on a book! Wish you luck in this competition)
