wips and shiet

Mladen Jovicic

alright, its about time i actually started something on here.

first up, gunslinger luigi!, one part of the mamma mia brothers, apparently wanted for the crimes of predatory hunting of turtles, among other things.

concept by Eduardo Vieira, a very talented artist.
(i asked for his permission on it)
http://cghub.com/images/view/34402/

just throwing down some basemeshes, to get the proportions right.


and perhaps this is how it will look like with the leaf powerup? (crappy cape, i know)


many things to do, many accessories to model, its going to be a long one
comments,critiques,ideas, whatever you can think of, are most welcome!

cheers

I like the concept but I'm not sure if I'm into the proportions on this guy. Luigi always strikes me as a skinny, tall guy, but having the arms go down that far is throwing off my perception of that, his hips are also going a bit far out in front of him. I'm not sure what you're aiming for with this since I didn't see any ref for the body, and I'm not sure if you really like the tiny body/big arms/legs deal. I don't know. I'd probably give him more of a torso/hips with shorter arms and much longer legs.

Slipstream

That is an awesome start; I love the proportions! How come you have the arms as a separate piece though?

Razorb

aaaa i love it : D really great! love the proportions : D

I don't like the arms. I think they're just too big. Scale the entire arm down uniformly, and I think you'll have a better proportioned character. Possibly longer legs and torso as well. Just my thoughts on it though. It's very cool. Love the face.

hahahahaha awesome!

This is really shaping up, dude. Personally I'm not into the whacky proportions of this guy and I can't quite pick why. But I trust you'll do the character justice once it's complete.
Keep it up, mate.

@slipstream, that was just to show a body with the head i sculpted already. i modeled it out in maya now tho.

cheers guys. the proportions are growing on me so that's the direction im taking with them.

anywho, last update of the year more or less. will resume in the new year.
pretty lame update, since its just a polypaint test and more of the basemesh modeled out.



cheers!

Nizza_waaarg

Mladen Jovicic
