CURRENT PROGRESS:

Core Mace

Effects!!!







First Post:

Haven't figured out which one's I'm starting with, but here are two solid concepts I'm invested in so far. Looking forward to this competition.

Callesw

As soon as I saw this competition, I KNEW you would come up with some kick ass weapon designs looking cool so far. Will be nice to see how it developes.
I'm thinking of joining myself when I'm done with my character.

Laku

The blue glow on the weapon on the left does a lot for it. I would go with that one unless you come up with an even better concept; it has a strong impact. Running a line of emissive along the inside of each blades center ridge (not the edge of the blade) would be cool. Just throwing out an idea.

Daven

Haha, thanks man. Yeah, I'm freaking pumped about this. I hope you do enter, you've got some skillzzzzzzz.

Stinger88

Awesome. Will be watching.

p.s. I would maybe think about removing the swastika on the handle of the left concept ;P

lol I didn't even see that. WHOOPS!

JacqueChoi

oh shit ya! looks like you're bringing it!

SouthpawSid

man, tough choice. I like them both equally! How about you pick one and give me whatever concept is left behind? hehe. Looking forward to more =]

MissMaddyTaylor

I love organic elements over structural elements any day. In my personal opinion the demonic one would make a much more interesting design, but in the end they're both well done!

leslievdb

me gusta the first one, but i'm just a sucker for demonheads anyway ^^

OriginLinear

I think demonic is the one I would go with as well. Bad ass concepts either way.

skankerzero

I like them both, but really, look at how many demon heads there are already.

seth.

hey Max sweet stuff so far man, I would consider angelic stuff though mister, I can see the clean style of your recent sci fi weapon concepts translationg really well

Daven

It's like you guys actually have good feedback. Damn if I don't try and apply it.
IT'S HAMMER TIME BITCHES!

Mathew O

Yeah that's a beauty, I was going to say that I thought the handle was too thin but honestly I think it actually works really nicely and the Angelic feel stands out from the crowd far more.

Although I'm in love with the demon axe concept, can I have it? :P

G'luck Max

Lowpology

Wow I really like your designs man, I like the demon one but that angelic axe on the right at the top is just sweet I love how its put together man.

SgtNasty

Great angelic concept, but I don't see how that is a hammer. Seems like you really have the style down though, nice work.

Ferg

Love these designs dude! That first demon skull one is prime

tacit math

awesome dude. wicked skills here

Myrddraal

cool designs

Looks more like an axe to me! =D
Looking awesome as usual, itching to see it brought to life!

Walgrind

hey Angelic powaaa !!
Great painting and very good choice of hues .

If i can say one critic , you should edit the shape of your hammer which knock ennemies , here it looks too fragile ( we are afraid that the wings are broken ).I don't know if i am the only one who think that.

Great job !

Saman

It looks good but it looks more like an ornament than a weapon. Perhaps you should make it more clear by adding some larger blades(if it's an axe) or making it more compact(if it's a hammer)

Maph

Sexy work as usual man! Absolutely loving that demon head axe with the glows, the angelic one is badass too, but I share Goraaz' opinion in that looks a bit too much like an ornament then a weapon.

BoBo_the_seal

Any of these would be good. Nice work.

tedark1

Damn Max, you and I had the exact idea for the robed person in the middle of our weapons and you beat me to the post. I was sketching up ideas last night during work, and should be able to post them up later on today once I get to sketch them out in Photoshop.

Ok, aside from my complaining ^_^, the only thing I can add to what others have said is that I fail to see how the angelic hammer is a hammer. It looks more like an axe to me with all the curved edges, but I also agree with Goraaz in that it looks ornate. Try making all the edge detail come together in a flat smashy end.

Jeff Parrott

First one is awesome. Really like that concept.

woogity

that mace idea is really tops man i think you should run with it.

Navillus

Yeah that 3-sided skull mace looks great, it'd fit in DSII perfectly

disanski

hell yea:)) awesome start man

ScoobyDoofus

yeah, all 3 of these are really pretty good starts for designs.

ChaosEidolon

Oh! me likey! You're nailing the style man. GG!

praetus

These are looking really great man. I really enjoy the angelic one, but they're all good designs.

Sukotto

Noice! I really like the demon axe, some cool glowy bits on it!

Daven

Wow, thanks for the support guys. Went back to the first concept and refined it a bit.
Please let me know what you think.

artstream

Kickass man. How far out would the demon skull come out? Just curious about the silhouette.

Daven

I went ahead and did a little top down sketch in the image. I hope that helps.

MeintevdS

Psh showoff

That's looking awesome!, if you keep this level of awesomeness up I think you'll stand a pretty good chance.

It's probably just 2D laziness, but if you're gonna have a huge skull like that as the main weapon you might wanna add some a-symmetry to it.

Pretty damn jealous of your design, keep up the awesome work! Also, I just wanna say I loved the first makers weapon you did, would totally see that work. Angelic was a bit to chaotic and random for my liking.

0Hayes

Looking cool dude! Was thinking them faces above the handle would look very cool if you gave each of them a different face and personality and maybe make them a little more strained, really bring the pain out in there faces =]

Stinger88

Great piece. No crits at all tbh.

I'd love to see you put 3 different skull faces on it though (see, hear, speak no evil maybe??....). Might take up a bit of texture space but it'd be cool.

Keep it coming!

This reminds me a little too much of Death Knight from WoW

0Hayes

hmm now you mention that I must say that the bone colour with the blue scream wotlk, simply changing to shine to say red should sail you away from that thought. Keep it up!

Navillus

are you guys talking about this? http://images.wikia.com/wowwiki/images/3/34/Deathknight2.jpg cause I seriously don't see any resemblance.

POFFINGTON

Its metal and bones guys, I think the blue is fine. Keep up the progress! I really like how this is turning out!

BoBo_the_seal

This looks great! I say go with it.

Rilem

Looks amazing, looking forward to the model (if you're going with it)!

Walgrind

Very impressive work ,

i agree for the wotlk side, here its too " cold " too "Lich King" (like this http://www.casimages.com/img.php?i=120303011454250633.jpg )

just change the color of glow and your axe will be very nice , and less wotlk for people i think
good job

Stinger88

I'm seeing no similarities with any of the WOW stuff other than "blue". Stick with it. Don't change it because the palette might be similar. The weapon is unique.

onelunglewis

Looking awesome man ! Really like the progress!

TaylorMouse

Yeah it probably just is the color, whatever works for you man, I love it!

T.

Torch

I disagree about the color change, keeping it like that would definitely stick more to the DS theme.
