    insert some CONTENT here, right? or didn't you expect anyone to pay attention, huh? laugh.gif
    as i said in someone else's thread, the thing about posting a thread on polycount is that you're expected to pay some rent in exchange for your spot. this week's rent is some thumbnails, man, THUMBNAILS. doodle some thumbnails (check out MoP's thread for how quick thumbnails should look) and get them up here, or get ready for the eviction notice to get slid underneath your door, mister. hup to! smile.gif

    Crappy concept posted tongue.gif

    Still playing around with a lot of ideas. It seems the more EVIL I make something the less stealthy and covert-opish is becomes laugh.gif

    Nice start but your still far away from getting some 3d work started. I still don't know what your really going for in this concept but it looks like you should do 10 more of these. Concept different characters out, you might find little things you like about all of the characters that you could put in your final character. Basically just do more brainstorming. You'll probably find out how to put evil, stealthy, and covert-op together. Keep us posted, I'd love to see more.

    Im behind, gotta catch up ooo.gif

    I've started on the basemesh and I'll get my crappy concepts up as soon as I get them scanned in. I'll probably do more prototyping in 3d and paintovers though since I can't draw squat laugh.gif

    Feel free to crit, bash, maim and especially paintovers laugh.gif

    He's meant to have a stealth/muscle suit similar to the character in Crysis and matching helmet. Im open to ideas since I don't really have a final concept but have a general idea in mind(demonic/alien with four arms). I'll post the background story tomorrow at work crazy.gif

    He will also have a BFG as a weapon. So yeah, basically a 4 armed demon in a stealthy muscley suit.

    Also any tips on making hard surfaces in mudbox? Not sure if i'll have enough time to do the hard surfaces the traditional way(Not much time to work on this and I wanna spent a lot more time in the texture since my texturing is rubbish)

    Thanks for the comments. Nothing special at his face, he's too low poly to get details there yet. I'll probably do a few head sculpts with him later.

    Ok now the background story which is my sort of concept. No eleborate, and eloquent story yet, just the gist of it wink.gif

    In the center of the universe lies a planet where heaven and hell reside. They have been at war at each other for millions of years. When the catastrophe at polycount happened the ancients(heaven) decided to intervene. Thus hell joined on the polycount side.

    The design im working on basically makes demons a race/mortal, not some supernatural being. They have been at war with heaven for million of years and thus all their technology is based around warfare. They don't evolve much so they compensate with superior technology. Although technologically advanced, they are still demons so his armour isn't pristine nor well maintained so i'll probably put some evil ornamental design somewhere.

    If you need to make hard surfaces the pinch tool is your friend. Give it a try and you'll get the hang of it pretty quick.

    I like the idea of demon race, i was considering something similar in early concepting.
