MORGANmuthafuckinFREEMAN.jpg

in his name, i present you thumbs n stuff..

thumbs2.jpg

A. alien warlord, has a crystal that houses a god of thunder in his chest! (crash of thunder! clash of lightning!) not shown because i forgot :P

B. giant war machine, mimics an angel to play on the human weakness, then destroys them.

C. young arabian boy invoker, can create and manipulate fire as well as his very happy and very large lava demon dog, who can adjust his own size based on the needs of the boy. does fire stuff too.

D. human stalker, possessed by 3 spirit masks of very distinct and exaggerated emotions. through the man they are capable of terrible things, and separate from him they can destroy minds. I cant lie, he's heavily inspired by zappa from guilty gear. love zappa :D

E. demon lord, representation of legion; one demon comprised of 1 million dead souls. master of darkness, as long as even 1 soul remains within him, he can never die.


CHEERS!

    B ftw. others look great too but B wins. Cant wait to see more!
  • Jaytown
    Hey mang, Ok, of all of these I like B, C, and D. I still feel like B has a pretty standard shape, in terms of looking like one of those prehistoric bug creatures, but the idea behind c and d are solid, I don't know what you would do with d, but it could lend for some cool modeling. All in all I'm a big fan on c, I like the fire bit.

    C or D are my top two choices. I don't prefer one over the other because I think if executed right both could look pretty cool.

    E reminds me of the Phantasmagoria from American McGee's Alice.
    Can't seem to find a decent screenshot. It was quite a cool enemy.

    and I promise I will get on making the kid look like more than a pure ass, and do more to the pup. and going to further develop D, so please dont beat me..

    would LOVE any advice or suggestions on how to push these more, design wise, color, etc. I'm no concept wizard, so feel free to yell at me.

    thanks. praise morgan freeman.
  • Enderstaley

    I'm not making him hadji serozh :|

    was playing with #D and i think i might go with him. still a little unsure. still playing.

    here's some masks. BBL with more and the human host. lots and lots of playing today.

    if its hard to read, under sad it says "head hanging backwards and upside down." want to have Sad's neck be broken, and hanging back. gotta go through every day walking back and upside down, thats rough brotha.
    and Anger has no eyes because anger is blind, heard that somewhere. i dig it.

    peace-love

    worked on a quick sketch for the guy in D, didnt have a ton of time to flesh out the idea, but enough to get it on paper for the most part.

    had a thought,
    for sad what if he is hanging backwards from an unhinged jaw giving him a kind of crown of teeth

    like the design of happy 1b kinda has the gleam of psychotic happiness, makes it feel a bit deranged.

    Digging the scarf, its all poly county :\

    @ drachis: thanks Toli. that cavity crown sounds like it might be pretty cool, I'll give it a shot, see if it pops. :)

    here's a body. one has long appendages.. still not really happy, gonna sleep and see if that helps tomorrow.

    Hey LoJack, gonna just reply directly in your thread.

    I think the idea is cool. Kinda a spiritual puppet master. Not sure how you would want to present him, but it would be kinda neat to have him and 3 apparitions floating around him. Of course the appararitions will have to be quite low in polygons, and their bodies could be mistlike, but that's ok. You can show a lot of character in their masks. I was thinking their bodies could be different colors but you might not have the UV space for that.

    I just had another thought too. Maybe the actual puppetmaster's face could be rather plain, as a kind of contrast to his exaggerated masks? Just an idea. Honestly I wouldn't change all that much. The overall design is there, but now it's just down to details. If you want to keep going I would say keep trying different things for the masks. Their faces have to be striking because they are major focal points. For this guy I think you could go either way as a norm or demon prince.. however you want to play with it.

    I think the tall long form works, overall. However, how pumped are you about this character? Are you only following the design because other people suggested it? If you're not super excited about it you might want to try exploring other ideas. Don't lock yourself down yet.

    @ Kamui: Thanks for the feedback, i appreciate it. I do like the idea behind this one, but still just not really happy with my direction so far. its probably the masks part that I'm attached to, but like you said getting something interesting thats low poly and texture usage for the bodies hasnt popped yet. on the guy though, think I'm too hung up on keeping him human, its pretty boring. going to try something uncomfortable :)

    not really getting locked down yet though, still looking for whats the most fun possible. hah
  • AcidLehmann
    i believe you should try to create more from 'C' character :]
    good job anyway :D
