DWIII - Pixelgoat - Void Stalker

PixelGoat

Guess its time for me to enter the fight aswell.
Working on the concept, open to suggestions on what to add etc. 2d is really not my thing, so bare with me

UPDATE: Final Entry

rooster

good start, but I'd like to see something in the design that really seperates him.. he's looking quite 'standard cloaked baddie' atm

PixelGoat

Kinda changed direction and started over from scratch. Still lots to do. Accessories and possible armor etc, coming soon

BradMyers82

I like this idea much better. Can't wait to see where you go with it.

PixelGoat

Hit a wall on the concepting so decided to start modelling the body and worry about accessories later when I have a model to see what works and what not.

Anyway here is the "final" concept, not much different from the previously posted. (yes those are blades on the wings!)


And here is the start of the model.

Ged

wasnt sure about hte concept but the models proportions look really cool! whats happened with the one arm? oh I just read the story. is it really necessary for him to be handicapped when there are so many powerful creatures in this war that have all their limbs? is there not some other way for him to be a unique concept? its up to you in the end though.

PixelGoat

I like the one arm thing he will be plenty powerful with the other arm, trust me

Small update:

Davision3D

Nice, looks very gargoyle to me.
You could make a cool implant at the cut off arm. Like a drill or a sword weapon.

PixelGoat

some more progress. Took your advice and removed the maimed arm to see how it would look. I think he looks much more intimidating now.

slosh

thats badass bro! im doing something vaguely similar but my guy is human with animal like armor. i am really diggin ur model though...sweeet...

fattkid

yeah, like slosh said...this thing is lookin pretty badass! pressure's on now!

Rick Stirling

You've got some lovely weight to that.

Khunez

Looks great..the model turned out very well..make sure you snipe some cool focal points and detail in there...great work.

PixelGoat

Started some hangover sculpting yesterday, very quick n dirty, but atleast I got the ball rolling

PixelGoat

A bit further along on the sculpting.

PixelGoat

Been a slow week, but here's some more sculpting goodness!

Wells

those veins are killing it

in fact, i actually liked him a lot more before this last update.

teeth could be bigger. little more needle-like than i would assume a critter like him having.

wings could use some more muscle mass to match the rest of him and make it a wee bit more believable.

all in all a pretty badass model. i really like those wireframe shots you've got.

PixelGoat

Thanks for the feedback, Sect.

I really like the veins so im going to keep them. But will definately buff up the teeth and the wings as you suggested

PixelGoat

Here´s the finished head, atleast until I decide that it´s not finished anymore...

PixelGoat

Some more progress, Stone bracelet almost done.

PixelGoat

Lowpoly and bake done. Sitting at exactly 9000triangles. AO and Normalmap still need some manual tweaking but will do that as I texture.

PixelGoat

Early textureWIP. For some reason Xnormal didn´t feel like displaying the normalmap so this is diffuse only.

Open to suggestions on changes etc.

PixelGoat

Messing around with some posing. Diffuse is still a WIP.

Still open to any suggestions on the texture.

Rick Stirling

Thats a nice pose, good feeling of mass.

PixelGoat

I've come to the conclusion that making those bigass wings was a huge mistake, frikkin impossible to fit the entire character into a single image :P

PixelGoat

What can I say, I'm a poser!

Still nothing more done on the texture. Did these poses as I was waiting for Photoshop to save to .dds at work...Slooooooow

PixelGoat

Here's my final entry:

rooster

really came together man! congrats!
