here's a rough i am working on. i hope to get it done tonight.
Most of everything i have seen so far is humongous with giant shoulderpads and scars, so I decided to take a more elegant approach with my character design. I will post more info soon.
and i think that approach will pay dividends. elegant does seem to be the watchword with this design; so long as there are enough interest points along the body it should end up a really nice looking entry, especially with spec maps and such.
i am not too fond of just painting away from shapes so i decided to draw in the details i wanted to see. It's supposed to be some girlish type of robot, just for looks though.
The concept is as far as I will take it. The lighting sure is off but I kinda sorta got the colors down. I also am not very happy with the head but I will work on that as I make the model.
I like stories and characters with stories so .
The planet of Wogli Woo
The planet Wogli Woo was once a peaceful place but during the first major intergalactic war the peoples inhabited there resented the Federations way of ruling. After its subsequent demise the rulers of Wogli Woo were invited to join the new Establishment headed by the CeeGee Chattan Order, but the Wogli Woolians felt that they would only form a new Federation and rule unjustly once more. Angered, the Chattan now see them as the enemy. Now branded as Polycountian traitors, the Wogli Woolians have no choice but to join forces with the vile in order to show the other worlds how best to rule. However, the people of Wogli Woo wish to set a positive example for their fellow corrupt Polycountian compatriots with the hope that they will rescind their loyalties to their corrupt ways and help the Wogli Woolians reform the galaxy into a new prosperous order.
Junon Kai: Foot General of the Armies of Wogli Woo
Truth. Honor. Loyalty. Compassion. Junon Kai is a general that leads by example. Charging into battle, she maneuvers around the enemy quickly, both studying them and attacking them as she goes. Her armies have the lowest mortality rates of any general on any side of the war, and for good reason too. She is able to accurately survey the battlefield and can relay the information to the rest of her allies instantly with her orbital eyes. With this gathered information Kai can accurately coordinate attacks upon the enemy with incredible accuracy and with few casualties. Whenever in the thick of battle, Kai has been known both to attack the enemy fiercely and defend her troops valiantly, even in the direst of situations. Such a display of compassion and determination for even the lowliest of grunts makes anyone join the ranks of Junon Kai and turn to the side of the Wogli Woo, friend or foe alike. Though up against insurmountable odds, Junon Kai and her warriors continue to wreak havoc on the leaders of the CeeGee Chattan Order so that the Wogli Woo can unite the galaxy in peace.
The idea is to have this character be made of iridescent metal that looks purty and shimmers as she fights. I wanted her appearance to contradict what should be typically seen on the battlefield so she is very bright and colorful for that reason. The weapons are actually spheres of energy that can be molded into different forms, such as offensive weapons and defensive barriers, but their strength and durability are limited to however much energy can be displaced into them at any one time (they operate kinda like the shield systems in the millennium falcon or any other type of sci fi space ship that routes power to dif systems where needed). The kicker is that these spheres also serve as recon modules for the general so that she is indispensable on the battlefield.
I changed the stomach to avoid a blazingly obvious similarity. I further went with more of a cuirass chest armor type of look. Still not sure about the head tho.

Cool concept never the less.
