BoBo Avatar Project
polycounter lvl 18
I decided to start a new thread for this project.
My website is old as dirt. It's time to get some new stuff up there. After Darksiders II Ships, I'm going to wipe my old site* (including all the old content) and put up all new stuff starting from the first Darksiders to present. *I might archive it.
To help with this, I have a little project planned out. I'm going to make a series of avatars. They will be framed animated busts similar to the character load screen in Dota 2. My hope is that by doing small pieces of art (not complete characters) I'll be able get a lot of ideas out quickly and have a "finished" cross-section of art.
Here is the final sculpt for the first one.
This "Psyclops" is loosely based on a concept I did a few years back http://cghub.com/images/view/139230
This started as a cube and DynaMesh. Once I had it roughly the way I wanted it, I retopo'd it and projected the base details to the new mesh. From there I did the final detailing.
My next step is to start on the game-res model. I'll post progress as I go.
UPDATE:
Low Poly + Texture WIP:

Love the concept too, the eye thing is freaky but intriguing
LOVE IT!
Also- good to see you're stepping away from the oval nipples
Looks great, your work has always been a major source of inspiration to me and I cant wait to see new stuff.
I am suddenly scared what your course is gonna produce.
awesome work bobo, will deffo keep an eye on this
i too enjoy the saggy titties :P but it feels a tad odd that his delts/arms/back muscles are so developed but his chest is entirely undeveloped? maybe theres some way to get the saggyness and the folds that are really cool but still have some strength in his pecs!
lovin this guys face too. his "eyes" freak me out in a way that i really like.
oh yeah and most NON goofy looking Cyclops ever. Great work mr.
.......sorry, new stuff from bobo makes me a very happy monkey and I say stupid things
Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwoʻole was the inspiration for the saggy boobs.

I really shouldn't have made his arms so jacked so they would match the boobs a bit more but I couldn't resist.
njc6425: I'm going to build a game-res mesh, project it, then fully texture it. I'm then going to animate an idle animation for it. The final project will be a page of animated avatars. The idea for the project came from looking at the heroes in Dota 2:

See the animated bust on the right? Thats exactly what I want to do with these.
Thanks again everyone. I hope to have the bake posted soon.

Regarding your new sculpt, I'm digging how you've handled the anatomy and seeing it on p3d confirms this. Can't wait to see more.
