The idea was to show peach as a defender/warrior of her mushroom kingdom with weapons based on mario characters
C&C are very welcome
normally I can't stand Peach, but that concept has a lot going for it. can't really give a decent crit myself, but I love the feel of it, the shell shield especially.
looking forward to see this progress
Cool touch with the mushroom patterned shoulder things. But I can't say I'm a big fan of the sword nor the Piranha whip designs. Although they might just need some thinking through and refinement.
Keep going man, I have no doubt this is going to be great.
@Maph: I see what you mean, I'll have to get more into those weapons maybe push those character thingies more into the details instead of just using them as the weapon itself. Thanks!
@ Onuris: good idea about the chain chomp, I didn't think of that yet! cheers
Im doin a futuristic mario from super smash
Good luck
I hope to have the most base meshes done by tomorrow!
A concern for you to think about when you go back to the Flail/Whip: Right now, I can't imagine that thing effectively whipping with that whip-length-to-head-size ratio. I have an easier time buying it as a flail, but it feels like it would need to be wielded two-handed with one hand higher up the vine so you don't have as much length to try and spin. It might be a little bit more believable if you looked at getting the proportions more like a Medieval flail:
You could even do a multi-headed flail with a variety of classic Mario enemies or just the variety of Piranha Plant colors.
Are those... Bullet Bill Jump Jets around her calves? Or perhaps Bullet Bill Grenades? Whatever they are, with that shape, I'll be very disappointed if they aren't actual, tiny Bullet Bills.
Really cool, keep up the good work.
haha yes those are tiny bullet bills
Better get cracking at that high res!
Looks like a fun design.
Thanks
CC are still welcome
I really like peach, and your redesign looks great so far! Hope you show us more updates soon! Good luck mate
@Straw: Thanks m8 appreciate it. It's a zbrush screengrab. Haha yes the hands are still from the base mesh, one thing though she weares gloves so you won't see alot of bone structure in her hands that doesn't mean they are to wobbly atm yes. You are right about her neck have to draw the tension down a bit there, thanks
I feel like the Sternomastoids (the main, obvious neck muscles) need to taper a bit more, both in terms of their overall shape, and the shape of the individual muscles. They should originate very close to the center line, since a significant portion of that muscle mass attaches to the Sternum. I think you could benefit from exaggerating this point. The individual muscles should also start out narrow at the sternum and get a bit wider into the middle of the neck before tapering again where they attach to the skull.
Other than that, I'm still really digging this. Looking forward to seeing it finished.
also what is the color scheme going to be?
I really have to pace things up now, I must finish this sculpt this weekend and have the unwrap done for texturing! One week left! Here is an update on some details. Not quite satisfied with some folds yet but it's getting there I think.
We dont need a Snookie :P
Anyway, this piece is awesome!! I love overall what you've done to her. When you get a rockin specular on her she will be fantastic!
Heres a screenshot from UDK
Looks good in UDK.
