I'm not much for 2d character concepts, so this is about as good as you're going to get out of me

Baal?

Vorge

I am ready for war!

I know you're gonna make something friggin cool, but the concept is looking pretty generic demon

cholden

i can't draws!

Quick hand in mudbox tonight. Is kinda sloppy cause I haven't used the box in a while, so I have to warm-up on some simple parts for a bit. The idea I'm going for is dried rocky bumps on the back of the hand which will be cooled lava (darker stone on the red hot skin, and glowing yellow viens. Will post more reference later.

Here's my arm wips. Will go back and add some more unique attributes once I nail those down. He does use illegal steroids, I hope thats not a problem in this competition.

cholden

quicky shackles tonight

Saidin311

I wish I had skillz. I can't wait to see this guy finished!

The lava/glow/skin reminds me of the Avatar from Eldar (40k)

ChaosEidolon

Nice start dude! Those arms are looking good.

Jon Jones

Diggin' it so far. Like the hands! Give him some more neck though. Neck = evil!

Xaltar

Looking cool so far, I don't agree with Jon on the neck though, I like the stubby neck, it gives it that air of brutishness.

Keep it up

cholden

Worked on upper body armor and a bit one the weapon/artifact. Mainly getting basic shapes down that I like. Not sure about it, but I like capes, so there.

Helixx

Hey Chris, i'm really diggin' the work on the arms and such. If he ever bends over though... yeesh those teeth are going straight through Also think the quads could be a bit bigger considering the size of his upper body. Keep it up man.

cholden

Oh wow, a feedbacks.

The armor teeth will be integrated into his flesh, and make a bit more sense once I sculpt out the abdomen.

And yes, ever time I sculpt stuff, I scale it up more and more. Since the lower body hasn't been touched, they do appear to suffer in size. I will absolutely 'roid up those thighs! Thanks!

Still got some problems with the head I'm trying to figure out. Got plenty of time though.

vahl

mm I think the head could benefit from a longer neck, maybe be smaller, if you want more mass, I'd say make the head smaller and the horns bigger, huge traps and longer neck, legs need to look stronger i think to support all that weight, the arms look a bit over scaled, maybe make the legs longer to balance this ? just my 2 cents tho:)

also, try to blend the veins by smoothing them where they stop instead of making them stop abruptly like that, that looks kinda weird
keep it up man.

Xaltar

I'm inclined to agree looking at this render, in the last one it looked longer but now it seems his head is sitting directly on his shoulders. Otherwise you are off to a great start, keep it up.

cholden

Dmoz

Will he have traditional metal armour. I don't think a lava god needs it, maybe he has armour made from cooled lava.

He'll be great with normal armour too though.

kwakkie

yeah, having armor made from glass would be some REALLY good protection
