MKAH · Feb 2016

Hi guys!

Here is what i got so far. trying to go for a hunter/warrior beast/creature who has a deep respect for his tribe and culture

still trying to concept and refine some shapes and add some clothing

MKAH · Feb 2016

Little Update started blocking out. still refining and adding shapes

Enalya · Feb 2016

Very cool concept, I really like the long limbs. Makes me think of the Na'vi from the Avatar film.

lotet · Feb 2016

Nakedbuddha · Mar 2016

Sweet looking! Good job so far.

MKAH · Mar 2016

@Nakedbuddha Thanks a lot!

I appreciate the comment

mcgillchris · Mar 2016

Looking awesome! And this is a n00b question, but what program were you using for your latest post? I've seen a lot of those "beauty" shots like that with great shadows, and I have no idea what people are using to get them.

MKAH · Mar 2016

@mcgillchris Thanks! I used a program called Keyshot to make the renders

and some touch up in photoshop

Enalya · Mar 2016

Going good!
Have to say I don't really like the super mathematically straight weapon on his side, I feel like it doesn't belong. Maybe if it'd be more damaged/bent or so.

MKAH · Mar 2016

@Enalya Thank you for the feedback! im actually having doubts about that weapon I'm thinking of doing a tribal spear or something. Ill add wear and tear and upload the detailed sculpt soon

Thanks again for the comment

phaselock · Mar 2016

Aye, this is looking good. Don't have to rush the hi-res until you've got the pose and basics down.

MKAH · Mar 2016

@phaselock Thanks man! yeah haha im thinking of doing the hires in a relaxed static pose and finalize the pose using the retopologized mesh

vickgaza · Mar 2016

Very cool I`m digging the proportions lots ! Keep crushing it !

MKAH · Mar 2016

@vickgaza THANKS A LOT! im a big fan of your work, man!

i change some of the equipment like the shield, sword and other stuff. I'll update soon

MKAH · Mar 2016

MKAH · Mar 2016

Hi guys little update sorry lowres images cant figure out how to render in substance painter

Jerc · Mar 2016

Looking good, you should use the trial version of 2.0, you'll get access to Iray to render you character!

MKAH · Mar 2016

AWESOME! thank you for the tip!

ill definitely try it

MKAH · Mar 2016

@Jerc i tested substance painter 2.0! awesome iray stuff! I love the update so much! lots of things got added specially those smart mask

I still need to tweak the materials to make it more defined add more hair cards and clean up protruding meshes haha
Ill upload higher res shots soon with the pedestal. Cheers!
