[MUTANT] MMA, Goeddy

Goeddy

So the plan was perfect. Create the ultimate MMA-fighter by enhancing him with a nuclear powered, mechanical endo-skeleton.
But you know what radioactive rays do to people.
Horribly mutated, he was banned from professional MMA-fighting.
But for every door that live closes it opens a window, and so he joined the Mutant League.

Current State:
done!

Inspirations/refs are Venom, Bane and some Undead guys from Confrontation wich i could not find any pics of.

Goeddy

so this is where i am now.
recorded lots of the progress but too lazy to to upload. think im gonna stitch em together and then upload everything at once.

also i´d welcome some critique :P

DrunkShaman

Bookmarked!!

But the hands and the feet need to be more inflated. To fit with the rest of the anatomy. =\

Legs need to be a bit longer.

Aside from that, it was a kick ass speed sculpting.

Japhir

Nice work! Very cool to see how you lay out the muscles. The muscles on his back seem a little too pronounced if you ask me, they look a little blobby. And I agree on the legs needing to be longer.
Looking forward to more!

ScudzAlmighty

Do you have perspective turned on in the viewport/canvas? The arms and legs are looking oddly proportioned in the front 3/4 shot and judging by how they line up at the ends i would guess thats why. Looks good so far, a bit of a Killer Croc vibe going on

Goeddy

thx for the crits, i totaly agree on the hands and feet needing to be bigger.
also on the back muscles, im still trying to figure out how to make them look belivable.
i think i will do 2-3 diffrent versions of them and then maby blend them.
i think i will leave the legs that short though. the focus is realy on the huge size of his upper body.
but if id realy turns out odd in the end i still can easylie rescale them.

btw i recordet nearly the whole sculpting process, going to upload them on monday.

This is awesome! but may I ask, whats the deal with the star on the rib cage topo? Theres 6 faces connecting, and looks like you were trying to drop an edge loop but then brought it back right after and dropped it again? makes no sense to me. I dont know much about edge flow on character though, so if it has a purpose, id love to know

Goeddy

yes this is a funny one and it was actualy like you said, i tried to drop an edge loop, but then switched to modeling around somewhere else and when i came back i forgot that.
when i recognized that i already baked and uv-ed and everything so i couldnt change the topo without having to rebake everything.
and in that moment i decidet to just fuck it^^

i dont know sometimes this just gets through to me. for example i did a udk render too, and it looked realy good, but then my udk crashed and i hadnt saved, so that was out too.

at work i dont do this cause other people have to work with my stuff, but if its just me i tend to just live with it.

Goeddy

uploadet a turntable:
