Shadownami92

Very interesting, goodluck. Should be an awesome interpretation.

The_Onomatopoeia

finally got some free time not much of an update but its something in the direction of what i want. more fighter pilot/dieselpunk version of the capt. i know the proportions are off and it looks horrible but it wont transfer over the the modeling portion of it.

falcon punch! yeah! I like the head design in the original b+w!

AlanSMitchell

love the design I feel the bomber jacket should be just a bit shorter.
Ooo and nail those boots give em a falcon face with goggles!!! and give the heel of the boot a break mechinism that spits out sparks.
Oh right and lens flare in the final render.

Have you seen the steampunk Boba Fett?

The_Onomatopoeia

The_Onomatopoeia

tiny update started blocking in the rest of the character. yay too bad i have crappy work 12 hour days make things a lil bit harder to do

TheRedFish

coming along! although I feel like the straps and buckles are too thin, might be hard to read from a distance, keep it up!

here is the link that we should all be reminded of and be aware of

Hurry Hurry I wanna see the gauntlet Design!

The_Onomatopoeia

lil blockout of what i kinda want the gauntlets to be any suggestions? i kinda wanna put a handle bar with a trigger in there for him to be able to hold on to and activate when he does his signature "Falcon punch!" I am also planning on something similar for the boots a sort of rocket propelled thing.

AlanSMitchell

OMG

AlanSMitchell

mkay my idea I just thought of something new for design wise but I'll post this for now jic my other idea sucks and I dont finish it.

AlanSMitchell

I dunno how attached you are to the design. but my feeling is that less is more.

So basically the idea is to cut down the detail and make sure you have a sweet looking falcon gauntlet that can easily be read from a distance as a falcon. Then put all that detail back in. Cause how you got it right now it feels too busy.
but this is just my opinion.

I agree, You are pushing detail over design.. at least as far as we can tell, sometimes less is more. Add detail when you get something you are happy with silhouette wise. But its coming along.. good progress so far!

The_Onomatopoeia

ok trying to keep what you all said in mind close to getting this into zbrush just need to put in a few more lil things and ill get on it soo tired right now though.

AlanSMitchell

That was odd it Said I was signed in as the Onomatopoeia. Strange
btw need higher Res Image to really see whats going on but it looks good from a distance

The_Onomatopoeia

alright so work, errands and a great dane that likes to crawl in my lap every 5 minutes makes things go a little slow but hey Ive gotten somewhere!

The_Onomatopoeia

small update added "FLUFF" to jacket and battle damage to shoulder pad. also started working on the gauntlet a little. stoopid job makes me tired and go to sleep early and talk like caveman.

AlanSMitchell

I'm digging the folds in the clothing. but since you put that detail in the leather hat looks too clean. make it worn a bit.
The gauntlet is missing the rings at the base. also since you fleshed out the hand might as well go in there and make them fingernails. Keep Going and then you can start texturing.

The_Onomatopoeia

yeah need to beat him up a bit more and the glove is a bit premature just a general idea of what i want it to look like but it will be all glove no flesh.

AlanSMitchell

Ohh I see now what your getting at.
