Good job everybody and good luck !!

Progg · Mar 2012

I like the silhouette. Good luck

BoBo_the_seal · Mar 2012

Very well done! Loving this design.

brandoom · Mar 2012

Looks painful! Nice concept

Di$array · Mar 2012

Great piece especially backed up with strong lines. Looking forward to more.

SgtNasty · Mar 2012

Awe, I'm so jelly. Great design, good luck.

Daven · Mar 2012

Awesome design. Very streamlined and well thought out. Can't wait to see you start more on this.

OrganizedChaos · Mar 2012

Really digging the design on this one! Looking forward to seeing it all pieced together in 3d.

POFFINGTON · Mar 2012

This design rules! Keep up the good work. MORE PROGRESS!

Isaiah Sherman · Mar 2012

This has a lot o potential! Maybe beef up that handle a bit?

Kurry · Mar 2012

Awesome shapes. Looking forward seeing your model.

Mathew O · Mar 2012

I can't wait to see this, such a strong idea already

Walgrind · Mar 2012

Thank you very much for your encouragement !

I just work the shape of my mace, and the pattern on the " branches " .
I try several way , Harp for the first concept and wings for the two last .

I didn't draw the " front branches" , it's to show more clearly the side (but i will draw it for the final concept. )

Next step : Grip and Pommel

see you later !

pulyx · Mar 2012

Beautiful man. Just beautiful

Walgrind · Mar 2012

This is my concept for the handle and pommel of my mace, i combine the two last .

I also draw the front branch of my mace to show his final look

next step : the angel statue between each branches and the finish Concept

Johnny Firecracker · Mar 2012

Wow, solid work man! great silhouette and it definitely follows the angelic theme.

Walgrind · Mar 2012

Thx !

What's your favorite mace ?

Sukotto · Mar 2012

Very nice! I like the last two, but maybe the grip of the first one

Isobel · Mar 2012

Of all the designs you made, I still absolutely love the first idea, the 4 angels on the mace just look amazing. I dare say so far I think this weapon is my favourite in general ^^ But I do like that handle of the last bigger drawn mace more hihi.
Better not screw up the 3d! hihi, goodluck

Walgrind · Mar 2012

thank you

So my concepts are not very clearly because its the same mace since the first concept , 4 braches with an angel between each of them .
We will see the angels in 3d view .
I will draw a better concept to show you that .
thx again for your opinion.

ChaosEidolon · Mar 2012

Aw yeah! best angelic design ive seen so far. Cant wait to see it in 3ds

njc6425 · Mar 2012

i love how youve actually thought about the different inner shapes in regards to an angelic theme, love the silouhette

Walgrind · Mar 2012

hello , thx you for your support !

This is my final concept !

I begin the painting, i will try with different hues and i will have finished the 2D step.

see you later

Di$array · Mar 2012

Bloody Outstanding mate!!!!

you've put the time into it and it shows. Best of all its looks like it belongs in DS2.

fearian · Mar 2012

Hot damn that is a nice concept! Is it going to be made of different materials? I think you will need something to break up the colour a bit.

BoBo_the_seal · Mar 2012

This is one of my favorite designs so far! Nice work.

- BoBo

tsabszy · Mar 2012

man.. another work that reduces my chances to even get noticed

good luck, it just looks great!!

irritated1 · Mar 2012

really love this mace, can't wait to see it in 3d

Walgrind · Mar 2012

Thank you very much, this is very encouraging
this is a grayscale concept
I'm doing the colors, you will see the differents materials of the mace .

Texelion · Mar 2012

I think it's my favourite concept too, at least for the mace.

Konras · Mar 2012

After seeing first concept I scrolled the page really fast forward, and went through something looking like finished model with base lightning (no way, so fast?!), went back up and saw that it was really an refined concept.... really good perspective drawing, forms are well designed, not a crit to add... looking forward to seeing more

StolenPants · Mar 2012

Really the nicest angelic design i've seen so far! excited to see you progress with this into 3d

Jeremy Tabor · Mar 2012

Favorite so far! Keep it up!

afisher · Mar 2012

Great concept. Can't wait to see it in 3d!

onelunglewis · Mar 2012

Really nice! The form is awesome.

Walgrind · Mar 2012

Hello ! thx all
Here is my concept with colors !

Initialization of 3d step .... loading

mindschnapps · Mar 2012

I love it, funny that you pointed the praying hands downwards, evil twist?

Walgrind · Mar 2012

hehe ! thx and no it's just for the force lines with the sleeves of the angel .

Snapghost · Mar 2012

Epic stuff man, I really love the shape and the details.

I have only one thing to say. If the brown part is a piece of wood, it's maybe a to basic material for an angelic weapon, you should try to get a more "jewellery" or "sculpted" feeling, You will get a stronger feeling for the grip.

Right now, I feel that he will break instantly after the first hit.

BUT ! Keep working, your mace is prety close to perfection !

Cheers.

wretchedgoat · Mar 2012

easily one of my favorite concepts. Great job keeping with the style!

naruSol · Mar 2012

I love the design overall, but something seems to be missing in those corners. Maybe just another material or some minor detailing. I can't quite place what I want to see there, just know that something isn't there.

STRIKER · Mar 2012

very nice design, now lets see some sculpting!

BrendtheCow · Mar 2012

That is dead sexy! Can't wait to see this in 3D

Walgrind · Mar 2012

Thank you very much for your advice.
Snapghost, now that you point this default, I agree for the handle ,I will edit it and increase his Angelic side. This will be better.

Walgrind · Mar 2012

Hi everybody !

I have just finished to sculpt the top of my Mace !

I begin the handle

Maph · Mar 2012

Vewwy nice, although I really liked the ridge that's running next to the stone sides that you have in the concept. A pity they're not in the 3D version (yet?)

Subscribed anyway, this rocks.

tedark1 · Mar 2012

This thing is turning out to be one of my favorites! Keep up the pace!

Daven · Mar 2012

Be careful with those small details, they might not show up in the final texture.

John_B · Mar 2012

that is some awesome sculpting right there. Could just be the angle of the render but the monk/angel seems a little flatter than the concept suggests. Might be worth pulling him forward a little bit to define him bit more like he is in your concept. Awesome stuff, def subscribing.

Progg · Mar 2012

Definitely on the right track

Walgrind · Mar 2012

Hi , i repost the good sculpt ( thx Maph ^^) !

suburbbum- I had the same reflection when i seen my mace from a distance, I will be careful .

John_B - I pulled forward a little bit the angel , i hope it's better;

Thank you very much for your encouragement and advices.
It's really useful !
