DWIV - 3D - BC3D
polycounter lvl 17
I'm think I'm going to go for something a little silly and playful....
Played around with a few sketches, here's a quick color for one of them so far.

Thanks man, that means a lot, you're one of my favorite 3d artists! Look forward to checking out your stuff...
Thanks! I haven't watched zenoclash before, I'll have to check it out. I like your bird guy, too, the jive turkey!
Valandar - are you sure we have to use both? From what I read it says "color and/or insignia"... Does anyone know definitively how this works?
konstruct - Thanks!
AHotHandSandwich - I'll mess with some engravings on the blade.
r4ptur3 - Great idea, I've done some real quick and dirty paint ups based on your comments. Scale will definitely be fun to play with.
Getting relatively close to UV time I'm thinking.... crit welcome!
Raider: Thanks man!
SQUAWK!!!!!! Base colors roughed in more or less. More painting to come. Gotta rig/skin this guy to get a pose and pedestal down next as well...
Here's some story, if interested:
Phothol - Norm Warlord
When you want to fix a mouse problem, you get a cat....... When you want to stop a world from getting overrun by a myriad of infernal demons, you call Phothol.... Phothol, and Grephlin (his beak-blade), make killing demons look eaaaaasy, and they work for a very reasonable hourly rate. Phothol is able to lay eggs and birth fledglings from his mouth at the SAME TIME...amassing hordes of ferocious hungry newborns, searching for demon flesh to feast upon... The eggs produce nonflying bird creatures, much like miniature versions of himself. With his "bird breath" he is able to spit out throngs of disgusting little birds with sharp beaks. While he might seem unstoppable, he admittedly is quite useless against the Machines, so he always relies on fighting with company.
AHotHandSandwich - thanks for the idea, hopefully I'll get some time to play with a bunch of detail ideas as a whole pass...
r4ptur3- thanks!
Davidskiwan - much appreciated!
This could be a character from "Radiata Stories".
Hope you don't dislike this kind of Japanese RPG.
Cool shapes and colours. Keep it up.
Started playing with posing this guy. Still working on the textures.
Trying to figure out a pedestal, what do you guys think between these sketches or please if you have ideas you think would fit the character, I'd love to hear!!
haZe - thanks!
garagarape - AHahaha, Im not a huge fan of most japanese animation, im going for a toy figure kind of look hopefully, but thanks for the kind words!!
AimBiZ - Thanks!
Raider - yeah! Tf2 = awesome!
konstruct -thanks
55joe- currently you're seeing flat color, no normals. Guess it's stylized and hopefully doesnt need normal map! (cause I don't have time to make high res sculpt, hahaha!
kite - Very much appreciated!
tacit math - thanks you sir
conte - thanks, youre paintings are pretty inspiring man. Really awesome colors and ideas going on your thread.
Thanks a bunch, and keep up the awesome work everyone!
SQUAWK!!!!
Got a rough in for my pedestal, and threw the bird breath little guys in. Ideas, thoughts? I'm thinking of scrapping the bird beak staff he used to have, and maybe switching to something real subtle?
Definitely still playing around with poses, what kind of poses would you like to see?
nrek - thanks, I changed it up a bit, but went with the core value of something to sell scale, hope you like this option, even though it wasn't in the original sketches.
Ged- hope this is similar enough or better than the one you chose.
AimBiz - kind of C combined with D... with a mix of Z! hahaha
mitera - thanks for your compliments!
I suggest whatever you make his pose, to have it tie into his demeanor or his story.
The pedestal is very appropriate, great work.
The new pedestal is great. The little birds flying around are awesome, too. Really sells that scale. One thing to be careful of... On the image on the right it looks like he is trying to eat that one bird. Dunno if you meant for that but it definitely could change the perception.
I'm curious as to what you come up with for his weapon now. Since he is a Norm, he has to have a single, magical weapon. Don't forget that! Hehe.
Awesome, dude.
M!
good stuff man!
aesir- Thanks for the enthusiasm!
coldkodiak - thanks, good comment, a difficult thing to tackle for me, since his character is actually pretty peaceful, he fights when challenged....
Bal - thank you very much good sir!
basho - he def doesnt eat the birds, he spits them out. Thanks, I gotta work on that weapon. damn.....
ashleyjukes - It is an honor to hear that from you. Your work, (and your husbands) is amazing!
rasmus - thanks dude, somehow hadnt seen yours either, couldnt believe I missed it. super cool!
konstruct - Good tips, I definitely needs some atmospheric color, and need to find out how to get it, without muting out the intense colors... should be a good challenge....I'll try out the low angles and see if I can get a good vibe/silhouette.
