[RIOT CREATIVE CONTEST 2017] Character Art - Ekko Renaissance

chemotoledo

Hi everyone, I come with a bit crazy idea, but I think that if I execute well it can be interesting, so I'll make an Ekko skin ''Renaissance''.
I decide to choose Ekko champion cause I think he got some interesting shapes, gadgets and silhouette,and  this theme to play with a nice color palette, different materials and also shapes and silhouette. So here I show a simple collage of some images of the main idea.
Good luck to all the participants!!

Just a simple gif for the super basic concept   

chemotoledo

This is just the beginning of a long but pleasant journey 

chemotoledo

More or less the color palette that I have in mind right now, I'll make some test once I have a more solid concept, still need to work on the entire one and his weapon and time machine 

chemotoledo

Some concepts for the power sword, I think that I'll go with the option C, l think it can be a good idea, like expose some power force glowing from the interior of the sword body to the exterior, I think this can have a nice effect

Design of the time device 

chemotoledo

Testing with some colors

chemotoledo

Another source of inspiration for this crazy design and color palette :P 

chemotoledo

Simple test of the silhouette on relaxed pose

chemotoledo

I think that I'll make more square shape on the tip of the sword/weapon, to don't expose to be a regular sword like  Riven, Tryndamere, Garen, etc. 

chemotoledo

The concept is not the final one, but with this I can start the 3D Sculpture, so I can make some adjustments on the way 

GravityBwlast

coming along nicely

chemotoledo

Hey @Pabs Thanks buddy ^^ I saw your great work at art station! You are the one who made ''The Executioner'' the model that Kiel Figgins sale on his page right? Cause I had work with him too really nice guy. Congrats on your great work man! I'm also watching your Sion entry  

Bwample1

Looking really good. I am interested in what your sword and hour glass will look like in 3d.

RogerP

Sculpt is looking great dude. Can't wait for more updates!

chemotoledo

Thanks for the kindly words  @Bwample1 Yeah,  I want to start to sculpt his sword and time device to look the full character armed. I just need to make some change on the sword design, I'll trim the tip to look more like the traditional Ekko weapon (like more rectancular shape)  

chemotoledo

Thanks @RogerP I'll post more wips on this next days  

FemCharles

Nice clean sculpt! Love the hair

chemotoledo

Thanks @FemCharles ^^ yeah, a litte crasy but nice :P Cheers! 

chemotoledo

OK, so Ekko's High poly its more or less done,(anyways, if I think that I need to tweak or adjust something on him, I can go back and do it)  now lets start the props ^^ 

Tlacku

man your style is great I really like your work

Noors

Nice shapes ! Nothing much to crit. The sword might be a bit conventional. I like the squarish look of the original design,  but let's see what you'll do with it.

chemotoledo

@Tlacku Thanks man ^^ I'm glad that you found my work interesting Cheers buddy!

@Noors Thanks buddy, and completely agree with you, I'll rework on the sword concept to try to get something with more squarish shapes  

Shelest

Impressive!
Nice and fast 

chemotoledo

@Shelest Thanks buddy ^^  its not a very detail sculpt, but I hope that can expose the overall idea of the character cheers buddy! 

chemotoledo

A different idea for the sword, I think I'll go for something like this. (I was trying to have more WIP, but this Zoe new champion gameplay doesnt let me :P ) so awesome champ
 

Hallomy

You are fast! Awesome sculpt already. Cannot wait to see the weapon now.

chemotoledo

@Hallomy Thanks buddy ^^ you know, is not a well detail sculpt, but it can work as a base for the low poly overall shapes and bake some AO from it :P I'll post more advance soon 

Art1ficer

This is cool! Really love glove design!

chemotoledo

@Art1ficer Thank you ^^ the design its a very important step, so I hope that I can make a good idea :P 

chemotoledo

A little bit more of advances 

GravityBwlast

chemotoledo
