Creature WIP

charlz

Hey, 
I am working on a creature and would like to get some feedback. I just started a block out. I will focus mainly on the sculpting part and will do a quick paint and render at the end, all in ZBrush.
The concept is from Jong Min Lee. Check out his work, this is really great.

First block out to get all the main volume. Still need to tweak them especially on feet, hands, horns etc.

An other update. I placed all the main element roughly. Will refine the blocking and start going to the secondary details later.

those traps.... off to a good start, make sure to give his feet some love too

@jose, thanks



An other update.
I finished blocking all the different pieces. I will start refining the anatomy to make it look more natural and start adding the big details.

Cool stuff. I mean it's a creature, you can have as much artistic license as you'd like but personally since it's still "humanoid" looking and we know what humans looks like, even subconsciously :

1. I'd try and make the arm silhouette a bit more like a human bicep, with that angle break instead of just a bubble, the concept seems to have it too. Found a ref similar to the concept's pose.

2. I'd make sure the obliques are really "oblique" (angled/inclined) and not straight.

Thanks for the feedback. For the biceps I think I will follow the concept but make it slightly less round. Something in between the concept and your photo.
For the obliques you are right, my mind was following the flow of the serratus anterior or the ribs I guess. Anyway thanks for pointing that out.

Looks like Doomsday, Weapon X and a Baron of Hell had a baby... love it.

@teodar23
haha yes could be. This is actually a redesign of Doomsday by Jong Min Lee.

An other update. I started the micro details on the body, and some polypainting to try to get the real feel of the sculpt. Still need to improve the sculpt and polypaint.

Awesome progress

@Felixenfeu
Thanks!

Will need to add a bit of details on the feet and lower legs but I think I am almost done before posing.
