thanks man! here's some variations on the arms... still kinda lackluster, imo... but bevels are definitely a good idea. I think I'll hit those up in the 3d stage, tho.
Nice design and blockout. One thing I think could be improved is the spike at the top. It's not looking very angelic at the moment. Maybe incorporate some more of the angelic style here? In Bobo's stream he said this arch thing is a very common element for this style, maybe try something along those lines?
SgtNasty: I totally agree! I feel like my design was missing something, but I couldn't figure out what. That helps a lot.
Here's a mock-up of some cool designs I found on Google Images. I'm partial to the one on the right, but the left one is also pretty interesting. What do you guys think??
and a proxy shot to check scale/proportion. Also... I feel like the shaft on the proxy model provided isn't really long enough... but whatev's, I'll just stick to it anyways.
Redesign time! I went for chunkier details, and incorporated some "fleur de lis" and "corinthian order" details (you angel theme guys might want to google it for inspiration). Still not too worried about color at this point, but sometime soon... Either way, hope you guys like!
The small shield forces a sort of hunched appearance to the angel. Making it taller would give him a prouder and more imposing look. It is a great design overall though, can't wait to see more.
I like it so far man. Keep up the god work. Is that guy getting a face? Oh and I would try to work in some curls to the column that he is standing on to echo the top.
thanks Skyerzz! I'll definitely keep that stuff in mind. and now he's got a face!
wow am i a slow-ass sculptor or whaat? here's my latest progress:
Man, seeing some of the awesome work getting done really makes me feel inferior in just about every possible way :P o well, guess i'll just keep working
wow, so after a bunch of derpin around, I've got a respectable base sculpt finished... IN THE LAST WEEK OF THE EFFING CONTEST. We'll see if I can't get my damage/wear & tear pass done quickly enough to get the baking and diffuse phases done before the deadline arrives!
Man this came out looking great! I may have a weakness for all things angelic, but I think you are a strong contender for the top three man. Good Luck!
thanks, tedark1! I am incredibly flattered by your kind words. I have high hopes, but my top 3 hammers go to JFletcher, ChaosEidolon, and BluPanda. I guess we'll see if I'm right or not

also try to make the arms and hands of the angels a bit more expressive
Any C&C would be much appreciated, thanks!

Thanks for looking! now I'm moving back into the 3d again
