Space marine WIP
Hello guys!
It's my first post on this forum.:)
I've started new character for my portfolio and skill up in design.
I think with your comments this character will be better.

What kind of references are you using?
lemme see what I can do with a little paintover.. brb
ART is very much about the SECRET CODE OF THE UNIVERSE!!!.. tadam tadam..
okok.. or maybe we should just call it rhythm like everyone else
It's 'the way things work'.. does Math give you a hint?
the algorithm of the universe..
well enough floaty floaty..
let's talk normal..
Music needs rhythm to work.. without that it's a mess..

how do I get a feeling for this language u say?
easiest is to study that which speaks it the best.. the universe..
So what do we do?.. we study life.. we try and imitate life.. we try and understand the way life speaks with VISUALS what it tells us..
why does one monster look CUTE.. but the other LIKE IT WILL EAT YOU!!..
its all in the lines.. the shades.. that little bit of darker color there.. that hint of color there... that rectangle here.. or that triangle there.. and all their infinite variations..
Like the way somthing looks?.. study it.. imitate it until you UNDERSTAND it.. until you can FEEL it..
the canvas is the border of the talk you tell us... the canvas separates YOUR 'story' from the rest of the things we see..
use it to it's fullest.. EVERYTHING in this canvas COUNTS.. EVERYTHING!!...
hope this helps..
well... thats simply a 'story' you need to learn.. we all know how to make a face look sad.. that 'story' we all know how to communicate..
Light most don't.. it takes practice.. just imitate.. soak up 'realism' from life.. the most realistic visual 'story' of all.
in the end it's all abstraction.. it's the "CONNECTIONS" that matter..
You don't understand me. It isn't final model, boots I've borrowed of my old model for feeling proportions.
On the legs will be more elements of armor and futuristic boots.
I think about hands, what may be on hands?
wi_2 thanks for the paintovers, I like many of your thoughts.:thumbup:
And while I contemplate your comments, here's a draft face.
Why would boots change? How much better can they get.
Maybe it needs some kind of shin protection that flows into or over the boots though.
Its the fact that visually they are very unique and thus detach from the rest making them feel out of place..
--Repeat the shader somewhere else on the guy to make him feel more at home
Repeat the 'looks' of the boots somewhere else pretty much is the idea.. to
connect it more.. maybe the UUU patters of the bottom of the boots would be cool..
or the leather look maybe
Or
the other way around.. add some techy metal shapes to the boots..
either way.. I do agree they look visually detached.. but this 'detachement' is also unique detail.. which is in the end what makes awesome if balanced properly
What you think about new version of helmet?
Freshness is always win. Good job on that xD
Amazing hard surface stuff.
waiting for more!!. this is going to be a fantastic model!
Hey!
Good idea!
I think about it.
I will make it on texturing stage.
Maybe you have special wish about illustration on the armor?
I've thought about design of helmet and understood that something isn't right.
My collegue to made little overpaint for me. I've borrowed his some thought .
This is new version of helmet.
What you say?
This drop is dedicated to long-awaited boots.
Little update...
The helmet seems a bit weird, how about a bottom bit for the mask? Could possible have it split down the middle and fold away to the sides, if that make sense.
It's final version of high poly model.
Thanks all for critic.
What you think?
Also i'm going to make render without helmet. I like how seem his face.
