so...you came crawlin back did you, turn your back on us last year and expect us to welcome you home like a returning hero...you broke my heart that day
looks like ur startin to get somewhere. i do think you could pump up the outfit a bit more. right now he kinda just looks like a regular dude in a post-apoc world...there's nothing to make him "special"...
He is feeling a bit generic at this stage. It'll be hard to shake that off with that style of gas mask. We've seen quite a few characters in the past with similar ones.
Thats not to say you shouldn't give him a air filtering mask, just make it one thats a little more visually striking.
yeah the stuff shown isn't gonna be the exact designs. My concept skills are kinda weak so being able to show a photo and then design while i'm in 3d has worked better for me before.
I am working on the designs for under the poncho and a few more details for this guy.
i like the top middle one. kind of voodoo witch doctor meets sand raider. or like the kid from thunderdome with the suspenders that phil was named after
holy crap i had to go to page 6 to find my thread. Thanks richkid. As you can see my concept skills are nill so i'm playing with some shapes in max and mudbox to see what i like.
hey
i would make smaler pics if the level-of-detail of the pic is low
and if you wan´t to go with your concept, then at least try to make each part of the equipment interesting.. your maks atm looks soooo generic-hey-there-is-a-poly-lets-extrude-it
there is a lot of space to push .. first paint than model the equipment
yeah didn't mean to post such a major image but i don't really think it was that large. anyways i'm not gonna keep drawing because it wont get me anywhere and I know that.
so using mudbox playing with shapes for the undergarments and armor pieces trying to find something i kind of like to go back into max and start working away.
I am thinking this may be a bit too techy looking for what I am trying to go for.
I'd suggest playing a way lower subdivision level before pinching like mad (I'd even suggest not to use the pinch tool, but well) even if it's only for sketching, you'll get better control of your shapes if you play more with the lower subdivision levels.

I have some better sketches to post up tonight sir.
