WIP - Domwar2 Grave Dancing

RazorBladder

I'm developing a back-catalogue of dusty, half-baked stool.
Therefore, I've decided I should finish 'em off and kick 'em out, the "Bom Chicka Wah Wah" is killing me.

I pulled outta DomWar2 due to more pressing matters, now time has opened it's pearly gates.

Concept:



Hi-Poly WIP:


Updates will occur, spontaneously

Keg

his ass looks really flat and the poor guy doesn't even get a bump for a crotch

Looking like a good start. I'll leave crits about the hips and boots for now as I am assuming they're still early on.

Just thought I'd post better renders from max, I hate mudboxes lack of rendering/anti-aliasing.
1.5 million pollies suck for performance

Spark

Razor, this is looking pretty good man, though I think certian areas need to get the love a little more. The shoulder and leg horns, feel like they are tacked on, and do not feel like they are ripping through the flesh. Also the buttock area is also on the flat side ( but maybe you don't like junk in the trunk:) ) Just go over your anatomy a bit, and this guy is a win, as I really like the concept, and what you have so far.

Jaco

Looking good so far, that thing in his stomach freaks me out. Is that a head poking out of there?

spider2cool

i know he is going to have a cloth there....but is that a vagina? I now understand why he is so pissed off. ok in all seriousness...your skizzils are off the hook man! i am diggin the arm vein detail. can not wait to see it done.

Love the design and all though if you think about it he can never put his hands down... he would slice his own arms with those lovely looking spikes on his thighs. If you were to adjust them towards his back then he might get a chance to lower them without fear .

Otherwise very nice design & the highpoly is looking sharp.

Bump from the dead!
Seeing DH_ come back with progress on his WoW entry, it reminded me I had an old hagged project of my own dying on my hard-drive somewhere.



Starting the texturing process, full of ugly seams and slapped together.
Just wanna show the thing and hopefully finish it before this years domwar starts :P

RazorBladder

More progress, starting to come together.

Snowfly

I like it man, cool design idea and interesting color choices. Proportion wise, I hope you're steering it back towards the concept, the 3D version has a very ordinary build.

If I may be imposing for a moment, here's a quicky paintover. Couldn't resist.

RazorBladder

Thanks a lot Snowfly, the paintover certainly helped. Whilst I won't be taking on all the alterations, I think I've adapted the issues that needed addressing the most.
Here's another update, last one for today... it's 10am for christ sakes. zZzZz.

Wells

his belly-mouth seems a bit too abrupt to me. it's all BAM - MOUTH! perhaps integrate it a bit more into the surrounding flesh?

his hip bones are too low, without enough room below them, and too wide when compared to the rest of him. he doesn't look emaciated or gaunt as much as just having those two protrusions stuck on a healthy body.

face could be a tad bit wider, as snowfly pointed out.

texture warping is very apparent on all his leathers, especially the buckles on his boots. they bring down the overall quality of the piece.

watch those seams at his shoulder.

he's coming along nicely, time to kick it up a notch, though!

rooster

nice work man! agree with the crits, but it's an evil looking bugger . One thing about the face, I think you should look closely at snowfly's paintover again- it is wider but also the brow and eye shape is slightly different and it just gives it that little more 'evil intent'
