Hi guys, this is my first post ever on a forum, so I hope I'm doing this right. First of all, I wanna wish everyone good luck and some good inspiration on their work. So...I played a lot of fighting games, especialy Tekken and Street Fighter. After alot of thinking who to chose, I went for Skullomania from Street Fighter. I hope I can make justice to this cool design that Capcom did. I dont want to reimagine the design, 'cause I don't think I can come up with something cooler, I just want to change the style and throw in something of my own. So here's the original :

Here's the first step:

After a few tweaks:

Sculpting after a few hours:

Added a mask, some glasses and changed his boots:

And here he is, so far:

Good luck!

So glad you did him. Skullo Crusher!
Not a huge fan of seeing his actual lips though. Kinda makes me feel like the mask isn't doing its job properly. Great stuff otherwise
Maybe throw in a hint of biking/racing suit or something to make it a bit more interesting to look at and for added protection.
Love what you did with the boots and the gloves.
I think the three asymetrical tooth stripes are pretty iconic so I´d remove the two on the left side of his face.
Keep it up, I´d love to see where this is going!
Good luck to all of you.
Begining of the final mesh for the presentation. I used a miracle program called Topogun. Started with the head:
Continued with the rest of the body:
Once I got half the mesh I went into Maya and assembled everything there.UVed the sucker then baked all the maps and started texturing with photoshop on the base color I did in zbrush. So here he is, grabbed from the maya viewport:
After this, I thought about a couple of poses and ended up with this:
And a little setup I did for one of the compositions. Still experimenting for the setup:
