I also took some of the things Muzz and Swizzle said to heart. I've got my concept a bit more fleshed out, I might start working on the base mesh and some of the finer details next. I think a more dynamic pose is also needed down the line.
swiz: keep rockin' it man... just maybe lose the boobies?!?
If big flappy mantitties are wrong, then I don't want to be right.
Speaking of which:
I followed OneLung's advice and tweaked the arm. I also tweaked various things everywhere. I added a shoulder pad and did a bit more rendering and shading and such. There's a crappy sort of head floating in that glowy shit, but it's nowhere near final. I'm going to have to concentrate on the head a bit more later on. And I still have no idea what's going on with that gun; I suck at designing weaponry.
@onelunglewis: Thanks! On the techmage, I wanted to replicate information loss coming from it, like it would be hard for it to completely maintain it's shape.
Alemja, Hand Sandwich, and JacqueChoi, cool stuff, can't wait to see finished concepts.
I took a swing at grayscaling my #3 concept last night, perspective is way wrong on the blade, however I can see the shape, so I will probably have two versions. My biggest concern now is building this mofo in 3k tris or less.
We got some pretty nice concepts going from everyone. Here is an idea I threw up this morning. I want to leave most of the ideas for 3d... I figure a lot will probably change once I start getting close to that 3000 tri limit. Idk I think I am just going to build what I want, crunch it down, and then just get rid of anything I just can't get in there.
What do you guys think? Go?
Great concepts everyone so far. I'm pretty excited to take part in my first of hopefully many Dominance Wars. This is what I've got so far. Some kind of fallen, bandaged angel but it needs more work to make it a tad less generic.
onelunglewis : Nice concept, i like this "Blizzard" style. You'll have lot of fun to do it i guess . If i can give you an advice, if i were you i'd try to make few Side/back view of the head, the front is really cool but those kind of shapes are quite complicated to make understandable for each angle.
Anyway , nice beginning, nice intention , good luck :]
So here is my take on a War General. I'm not sure which one to take. At the moment I'm in favour of the right one. But this may change again. I'll have a look after I got some sleep.
Next step is fleshing out the concept. Sadly I'm busy for the weekend so I have to wait monday night to get shit done.
I narrowed my sellection of like 80 thumbs down to 7 I liked I'm probably gonna cut down to three after this post, but it's gonna be hard pickin' cause they all have something I like out of them. I'm probably leaning towards 1, 4, and probably 7.
And damn, some of you guys move fast! I'm really liking what y'all are pumpin' out so far.
Swizzle: I feel like they should make a toy out of your concept already. I love it!
Justin_Meisse: I think you have some really nice shapes going with Hammerheard and Protherion's buddy. I think you could push the Capacitor head idea a little bit further.
HandSandwich: Your concept is looking pretty tight. I hope you reconsider the horns it had going in the initial sketch. It really brought out the silhouette!
Onelunglewis: Nice! I love the look of the head. I feel like the the design of the emblem area could use a little more work though.
@illusion I really like the proportions of your second sketch, that could really fit the style. If you incorporated the straps of the lanky guy a little more I think you'd have a pretty awesome looking guy
I don't have a tablet or a scanner so I figured I just mess around with my mouse...
I want to go for corrupted, but I think as I work on my character more more attributes will appear (since she doesn't look soo corrupted at the moment).
Spent today working on my concept for a techno mage, love the idea of no high rez sculpt because i've been needing to learn how to do hand painted textures.
Basically going for an older dude with a blend of mage, steam punk, jet packing, magic cannoning crazyness. Hopefully it counts idk.

Artquest / onelung / Slukas / Swizzle: Digging the concepts guys!
Updated the sketch a bit more. Still way WIP:
Much better, but make your images bigger so we can see your glorious elbows of life, without have to see the edge of the page.
I love the creepy stash on the guy in stomach of gobledy poop!
Onelung
I like the one left, nice gesture on the hands, don't wait too long t figure out what to do at the bottom.
OneLung
Let me know what you think!

My own Silhouette is a little weak right now so I'm going to do some paint overs on it before taking them ode anywhere else.

Jacque your concept is looking bad, ass!
Looking forward to seeing everybody's work
I would like to join your team
here is my first sketch:
Btw i really like your design Der Hollander.
Earthbender,
Easy with your designs.
...results:
Anyway , nice beginning, nice intention , good luck :]
swizzle: your concept really makes me think of castle crashers. I'm really digging it
onelung: ::drool::
2947 triangles.
Please marry me! Great results!

I quite like the side view, the others still need a bunch of work, and the middle of the front will be totaly redone

Yes please. Can't wait to see more.
