Proboscidean Warrior

Hey. Originally began concepting for this before getting caught up in BRAWL. Sure feels good to be doing organic modeling again.





so-what do you think?

wow nice work. love the feet and the hands, nice detail there.
head looks great, too.
only thing that annoys me is the belly.. the muscles look odd and it appears he has an anus for a bellybutton... hehe i guess it doesn't matter since most of it is going to be covered by armor.
looking forward to see your progress.

Finished with the Max model and maps. started refining armor and hair concept as well.

whats wrong with the old armor? i really prefered it to the new one!

DGB

During the process I found I wasn't completely satisfied with the overall look of the armor in the original concept. I was also inspired after doing some research into Tlingit slat armor http://alaska.si.edu/record.asp?id=261. I also thought that the fur-lined underclothes would be kind of redundant on such a hairy creature and did away with them.

DGB

got most of the armor done-still need to add the fur and other details, though.

Wow, looking great! Really interested in seeing how this turns out.
If I had one gripe, it would be that you should make the left shoulder look more like the one from your most recent concept.

Looking sweet dave. gonna be a sweet portfolio piece for sure.

great character. very unique. the armor really sells it for me. the ears are freaky weird, i'd rather they were more elephant like.

Dang it lol,
I just started painting a cartoonier version of a fellow similar to this..
Albiet mine is a mammoth, they do have similar builds.

Dan!

Awesome!- im with killnpc about the ears but very cool character nontheless.
