Sketchbook: Maneak

Maneak

After being out of college for several months, I now appreciate the constant crits everyone gave each other on a daily basis much more. Living away from that community is debilitating to say the least, so I am making a sketchbook here for some much needed critiques and creative inspiriation!

This sketchbook will probably be mostly 3d work, but I may end up throwing up some sketches at some point....

C&C is welcome!

My first piece is what I am currently working on trying to finish. This is a Hi-poly of one of my favorite Warcasters from Privateer Press' Warmachine game: Iron Lich Asphyxious.

Based off of this model. (I would just directly link the picture here but I'm not sure about polycount's policy towards linking things from company websites, anyone know?)

And here's my model

Still a WIP, but I hope to finish the Hi-poly ASAP. Comments welcome!

Looks fantastic man! Keep up the good work! How are you thinking of texturing it?
