Hey guys, i finally decided to join the contest, i want to recreate VEGA which is my favorite character in street fighter, he will have a nano suit on him, and a robotic arm with the hook, here are my idea and the original image, hope i can finish in time

Great progress so far, and fast.
I love how you made the basemesh, really great idea.
Cant wait to see some nano suit bits on him
Thanks Cordell, still got a lot to do, just hope i can finish in time lol
It looks great, his boots look a little funky though.
They look a little wimpy compared to the rest of the suit.
I did a quick paint over:
it needed a little lift at the end of the boot, and the heel felt a little skinny and long.
BEEF EM' UP!
great progress so far man.
Im almost positive it is not a "J" though. I read some things sayings its a sideways heart, the number 7 and a snack bite(mouth). His name originally was going to be "Balrog" before the game moved to America. I dont see a J fitting anywhere haha.
I think you should stick with the original symbol, and maybe keep it on the mask because the mask is what symbolizes Vega the most. If people see just the front image of his face and not the claw..they wont know its Vega right off the bat. Maybe try putting the symbol on his mask through the diffuse.
And the model, to say the least is beautiful. Wonderful design for the biosuit.
As we discussed in class, finish up those boots and rag on his waist!
Great work!
@ Ikosan lol, its not just you, i dont really know what was it when i looked at it first, it looked like a "J" to me, but at the same time i cant think of anything related a "J" on him, so maybe its just a cut on his mask, thanks for share you opinion tho.
@ eCzety thanks a lot man, glad you like it, im doing my best to finish him on time.
I like your anatomy but the cabal dude has better understanding of that but you two are my favotes i wish i can join and see each other in ithe final but i knew the contest late.
best luck for you two
@ Ravenslayer thanks a lot, i just hope the low poly will come out good too, thanks again!
@ smiljan66 glad you like the face, and ill try to fix the cloth before i make the low poly. i too saw the Kabal one and love his color, thanks for the good luck, i need it
I love the colors!!
Nothing i can really say, the colors JUST WORK! Great detail on the face, very realistic.
His face is perfect, its not all girly like in the game. He's toughened up more.
Finish him up and pose him!
Dont forget the symbol on his mask, thats a big icon for him!
You should have a pose with him taking his mask off like he does after he wins a battle. (as one of his poses i mean)
@ Cordell thanks man, took me a while to figure out the color, glad you think its working, btw, i can really pose him as he taking his mask off cuz the mask i design on him will open and close automatically lol hope i have time to do an animation about how the mask open and close in max.
This is so epic! The only crit I got are below the middle, the silhouet is quite straight there. But I really LOVE the upper part of him.
damn you!
keep it up!
For the cloth looks like a tie it look too that you want to achieve some chinnese cloth you better look for that types of cloth in google and make the real change and meaby put cuts in the cloth at the end to give more movement instead trying of folding too much ,i know is tuff but man if you want to win becuase the first impression will be ...what about that cloth that looks like a tie and doesent match the character itself?.
Make that change and i will love your piece even more.
Very very good work at all but make that change sometimes to been working hours you dont note it but the first impression is the one that counts at the end.
bets best fo luck my favorite one wiht cabal.
@ smiljan thanks a lot man, im happy to hear that you like my VEGA, took me some time to figure out the design and color, about the cloth, i want to keep it red because i dont really want to change the original color, i think this way ppl will think that is more "VEGA", if you look at the original color of VEGA he basically has RED, PURPLE, AND YELLOW, these 3 color are all really saturated and to me it was pretty hard to make all those color work together, but im pretty happy of what i got for now, but really, thanks for your advice, now i dont really think i have time to go back and change stuff, ill make a good pose of him to make up the cloth part. lol
Absolutely gorgeous detail on the mesh and I love the color scheme you've got going there except for the red scarf around his waist. I think it would look a lot better if it were white with a black pattern. Can't wait to see the final!
the softness of the area covering his abs i dont really like compared to the rest, i think it would greatly benefit from having the color there matched to the color of the boots/ knee pads maybe.
@ TortillaChips Thanks man!!
@ woogity really nice critique man, i feel the same thing just like you, i was going to change the boots cuz i hated a lot, but then i think because of the traditional cloth on him maybe i can just get away with it, and ill definitely try to change the color of his abs thanks again man!!
