bit of doodlin for the day

Davision3D

Looks small, thin and not like an dangerous shadow!
Your thumbs are very nice...put more of that in your detailed concept.

buddy the designer

Hi CgJeff, good luck in DW.

As for your thumbs I like that ninja type of guy (3) and freddy kruger (6), second concept you posted shows a really really tired shadow suffering anorexia. Needs more BAM.

Good luck, keep pimping.

cgjeff

thanks for the comments guys.
I kinda want to keep him a bit skinny, to keep the whole stealthy feel. Want him to feel like he could slink in and out of any situation, kill some bitches and vanish.

more doodlin

I think that you could, and that it would be cool if you picked a bit of inspiration from that über nazi ninja from Hellboy (which was mostly the cool thing bout that movie). Just so you don't forget the evil in us all!
He looks too nice.. and a bit xbox, I'm afraid

gauss

hahah yes... fjorn's more or less on target. he needs to be a good bit more evil and good deal less x-box.
speaking of boxes, bust out of the assassins-and-ninjas box you seem to be stuck in. take a gander at the breadth and variety represented by such entries as spacemonkey's, killingpeople's, rawkstar's, Fogmann and Snowfly's, Spark's, and MoP and Tully's, just to name a few--these guys and gals aren't scared to pull some really dramatic and wild kind of stuff, so why should you be?
what you've got now has some promise, but i can tell you know it won't be winning much recognition, either officially or from your peers. your photoshop-fu is pretty strong, so let's see you pull off something a little more engaging to the imagination. stay away from cyborg ninjas and assassins and i think you'll be in better stead.

cgjeff

thanks guys. I'm entertaining a new idea thanks for the boot out of that box gauss.

Toying around with the idea of a genetically developed demolitions expert. He's made from various animals either for their agility or their sensitivity to sound/vibration. He uses these traits to find out and bomb the living hell out of structural weak points in buildings .

akimba

Very unique character and idea here. I love the idea to incorporate animal abilities to help him be a better demolishionist. Something that stand out to me are maybe reworking the color of his suit so it stands out against his fur a bit more.

Also, maybe make an attempt to hunch him over a bit to really push the animal side of him. I could really see this guy running on all fours for a serious boost of speed.

and more EXPLOSIVES!!

Keep pushin' it bro! Looking forward to more

Jaco

Yeah, some darker colours, some contrast is needed. Agreed with akimba, push his animal side a bit more.

cgjeff

thanks for the crits guys. I'll definitely go back and rethink the color scheme.

For now, a bit of moving forward.

started sculpting the pants. got quite a bit of the base mesh for the body done as well. so i should be starting to sculpt that up soon.

Dread_Reaper

Definately feeling the feline... monkey idea more than the previous ones, especially the only that looked like a Tau from 40K. The pants are looking great so far.

bit more work.

Steve Schulze

He's looking pretty good so far, but I think you could push the bat face a lot further. Check these guys out -
