DWIII - 3D - Vanessa Mull - Emanon

Vanessa Mull

Emanon is in the class of Stalker. She is an undead assassin. She is a unruly killer and hell bent. Right now her artifact is still undercontruction. It is a crossbow that shoots off dark energy that kills (unsure of the correct terminology). The smoke effect will encircle her as the after effect of shooting her weapon.

Hi Vanessa, I like the smoke, can't wait to see the crossbow.

looks like the concept is cool...way too small to tell

Added a better pic that is not thumbnailed

I added a colored version that I was just playing with. Feels a bit overly done or comic book. I think I will play with different hues , saturation levels etc so I can see how it changes the mood. She is a monster, but she doesn't have to be the stereotypical. Any suggestions/

i like what ur doing with her arms. i think the rest of her could use some more pop. the skull on her shoulder is cool...maybe you can play off that more? and i think with a female, her hair can play a big role in making her more interesting....covering it with a hood may be a disadvantage to ur design. lovin the pink smoke though!

Vanessa Mull

How could I give her more pop? Bigger skulls? More skulls?
In the next revision I plan to have the sheets of fabric actually turned into scalped faces of her victim or marks? Whata think?

Some pieces of armor would go really cool, like some on her knees and feet, maybe more belts with lots of little blades stashed in them for easy access. Perhaps some sort of skull armor piece on her lower stomach. Something like that, more details and sharp things, she looks fast so she should use lots of blades.

Vanessa Mull

Yeah I do feel as though she needs more information. Adding a skull at her sash piece and more straps and items to throw would be awesome. Speed is what I intend to be one of her major assets so bulky armor is not what I really want. Ithink I need some straps or other sorts to help make the weight of her arm and weapon more convincing. Thanx

hawken

still a bit small to make out

Vanessa Mull

I been linking to the smaller file.. here is it bigger

slosh

nice...big pic..better! well, i def think you can add more of that bone to the rest of her. i think you could make some cool bone armor pieces on her to add more interest...it would still be light and not like heavy armor. and maybe adding another skull or two somewhere. even adding some spikes or something to her shoulder skull would pop her more! still, the base idea is solid and i'm sure you'll make her look great!

Vanessa Mull

Okay next revision will have bone armor and details of her materials for her garbs.

Here is the first pass of the model

here is the weapon

Vanessa Mull

here is the face. I need to refine the face boots and costume a bit before I move on to clean up and any other extras. any comments?

Zwebbie

You're working fast!

I'd recommend you to look for reference images of other people's facial topology. Just Googling "Face Topology" will bring up a lot of images, of which this one is usually cited here. She doesn't have much of a useful nasolabial (nose-to-lips) fold, which you'd probably want to kick into action with an expression like the one she has in the concept.

Vanessa Mull

I fixed modeling issues and started z brushing which is a new thing to me. I hope to get as much detail as I can as close to the concept as possible.

Her Face, boots, hand, wrist gear and stitching need to be painted in and other areas refined. Any suggestions on what to do or fix?
