I have few suggestions for you :
- breast : Try moving them a bit higher this way you will have more abdomen also over all shape and connection need adjustment
-shoulder : you can make them narrower and rounder so she look more feminine
- extremities gesture : add more curve to your arm and legs, its a female ! also carrying angle of the arm for female is around 5-15 degree
Best.
I worked on it more today, tried to push the silhouette to match the concept more. Left my comfort zone with that, hard to drop all these things at back of my head about proper shapes, anatomy etc.
Planning to work more on the breats area while I get that leather body in.
If I may add a few things as a possible approach : You could look for female with similar proportion and body type just to build your general anatomy and then when everything look solid to match to the character reference
From the line up you can probably see yourself that few things have to move around :
- feet need some more length
- make rib cage bigger or shave some of her buttocks
- pectoralis connection still look to low (widest point on the deltoid is more or less on the same level)
- root of the neck is too wide
- sacrum looks concave instead should be convex
Best.
You are saving my life here sir, thank you!
She is getting there, keep pushin
And here, carvuliero strikes again, cool! ^^
Good points on anatomy, I like the idea on adding more curves to her overall look. Female body, doesnt matter if stylized or not, is annoying to sculpt
I have noticed some small things that I think can be pushed further before you do her coat. It is not important if you decide to cover up those areas though.
Blue, Cyan, the arms are very straight and not as curvy as they could be. Especially on her lower arms and the deltoid.
Orange, the elbow is really flat and not defined in your sculpt.
Green, the Scapula is to straight and there seems to be no muscles or fat going over the shape of the scapula.
I hope this helps! Good luck
I was planning to adding some stuff to scapula once I get to finish the body, but with arms, I don't really bother myself
I find it kinda funny that you sculpted straight scapulas, even though you've already made a magnificent "Witcher Hunter" character and you have this super cool "Atoq Navarro" character fan-art project going on in the background as well, while both of their anatomy in general is really good. It's just that you haven't really gone through the anatomy studies with 110% percent effort.
There's nothing more satisfying in the world of character artism, than a polished anatomy sculpt with all those complex anatomical nuances to tingle my mind with euphoric feelings, whether it's in the form of a dynamic pose or just in an A-pose or a T-pose. Good examples of this is Eugene Fokin's, Yuri Alexander's, Anton Slyusar's and Hossein Diba's anatomy work.
Only exception is 3D scanning of clothes where you can sculpt those remaining visible body parts, just for sake of speeding up the workflow. Hand sculpting clothes or even using MD to simulate clothes on top of your anatomy sculpt is crucial to have a proper nude sculpt underneath clothes. MD being less forgiving, because it drapes clothes on top of your nude sculpt in a way that all the errors on the anatomy shines true.
Basically you need to fix the anatomy with clothes on the fly, and that sounds unpractical to me, since you just could make the anatomy sculpt to the perfection in the first place to avoid these kinds of problems.
You're a really great character artist with tons of potential to be even better at anatomy. I highly recommend to learn anatomy so much that you'll know it better than your pockets of your pants. (;
Sorry for the rant, but I'm just one of those character artists who sculpts anatomy forever before even thinking about clothes. I get really frustrated if somethings isn't perfect in the anatomy, and I have this urge to fix thing here and there... and I'm entering the rabbit hole. :P
EDIT: You're still having a great character coming up here, so keep up the good work. But IMO Nuclear Angel is right about those suggestions.
No worries mate! Believe me, I love working on the anatomy, especially faces. Things that were mentioned by NuclearAngel are 100% correct and I would do it, if my character could benefit from that
In case where I really need proper anatomy with interesting volumes for MD simulation, I will always do it. Same applies to general anatomy studies(like M.Phelps on my Artstation).
At the same time, little update! Worked mostly on the upper body part. Planning to block out jacket now and fix the back of the ear.
I understand your point mate, but I plan my work ahead. I never wanted to show HP body on its own, or make the version without coat etc. It's not just my sort of "whim", but I think it was enforced by looking at art in games. I don't think that character like Geralt has a defined anatomy underneath his armour and believe me, my Witcher dude had chicken legs :P
The only time I would go into getting really solid anatomy, although its not visible, is in the situation where I create most of clothing in MD, to get perfect simulation.
That whole conversation spiked the urge to create anatomy study after she is done
And the update.
Sweet update on the clothes as well, but I think the collar could be wider to match the concept as well as the two straps that go down the back. They should be wider apart, almost hanging from underneath the shoulders.
I am looking forward to the anatomy study.
Speaking of your current WIP shots, that character is coming along great. You have the skills, man... but a small anatomy nitpick though, because I can't help myself. Sternocleoidmastoid's main origin point (sternal origin) isn't attached to the clavicles. It goes past them to the manubrim part of the sternum, hence the name of the muscle. Secondary origin point (clavicular origin) is the 1/3 of the clavicle with a thinner branch of the muscle sheet.
Good job!
You are right! I will change these things.
@FourtyNights
+1, getting right to it
@kanga
Thanks dude!
I will be changing the folds on these "wing" things on the back, I kinda feel like I made them too thin. Also, they give the appearance of that metal things weighting a ton.
Once I'm done with the bake, I will
Nice bakes too
