BrontoThunder · Mar 2013

Here's my current project; some big googly goggles for sniper (featuring a rockin' hairstyle):

I still have a lot of work to do on the hair and the masks are currently just flat colours so there's work to be done there, too. And I'll need to create a LoD1.

I'm looking for advice though, should I do anything with the lenses or should they stay flat green? I'm not sure if this item needs anything more.

Jeff Parrott · Mar 2013

Old man Wolverine! Awesome. The green works. Don't over think it.

Anuxinamoon · Mar 2013

Hahah that hair is classic!

Shammy · Mar 2013

I think the lenses are fine, considering the flat green is so synonymous with Sniper's portrait. Awesome work as always!

BrontoThunder · Mar 2013

Finished

Andyk125 · Mar 2013

Looks great bronto!

BrontoThunder · Mar 2013

Man, it's been a while since I updated this!

Nannou · Mar 2013

Looking good! Thumbs up...

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

Ike and I made an item; pretty sure that means we're married now!

Andyk125 · Apr 2013

Looking really great!

Don't like short hair on woman too much, but with the horns it can be pulled off as naughty

mrpresident · Apr 2013

I like the short hair, it works on her, very nice :thumbup: .

HatPoweredSpyCrab · Apr 2013

does anyone else sees Anne Hathaway?

PoPcorn · Apr 2013

I think short hair is very sexy. Good work Bronto.

Lalzy · Apr 2013

Really nice qop !

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

Earthwatcher!

Nikey · Apr 2013

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

Uh oh, you and anuxi are going dark? Something is happening here :P

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

Updated my Keeper set with a new hat and staff -- check 'em out!

Gonna make a unicorn horn/fancy hair for his horse just for fun!

Damm more super secret projects!

That staff is so purrdy!

HntrLuc · Apr 2013

Yeah I like that staff! If i missed saying so earlier, love those sniper goggles! My snipers sporting them!

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

Thanks, Hunter and Anuxi!! Really means a lot

I wish I'd made the goggles fit under the hood from my previous Sniper set, haha. If you wear them both it looks like he has horns.

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

Crankin' out a unicorn!

Quinnjdq · Apr 2013

I would say straighten out the horn, a tad bit, it looks a tiny bit Phallic at the moment

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

A horn by nature is phallic

I think I might actually enhance the curve a bit more, a straight horn is just a bit plain to me.

Konras · Apr 2013

Go for it!!!!

Ok and now back to the topic. I would also suggest going for bigger and straight horn. Also don't know what are you planing in terms of coloring, but slightly tinted hair to rainbow colors would be cool (just tiny bit)
Wish you luck!

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

Might try a few different variations of the horn and see what works best - thanks guys!

Colours... I'm thinking maybe mostly white/silver with a hint of blue.

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

Okay so on the left we have our unicorn-ass-unicorn horn, stock-standard.
On the right we have a high-fantasy, stylized unicorn horn.

Spudnik · Apr 2013

If you want a 'traditional' horn I'd say left too. But personally, I think you can go a bit more crazy with it. Who says a horn needs to be a horn? Example:

BrontoThunder · Apr 2013

You're totally right Spudnik, if I was going to make a stylised horn I should go all the way with it instead of slightly off, however, that wasn't what I had in mind when I was thinking about this item so I stuck with the normal unicorn horn.

HAIR OF GOLD!

How I just need to make it so this hair doesn't clip through god damn everything.

Also... I'm kind of tempted to make a whole new horse to pair this with... kind of very tempted.

BrontoThunder · May 2013

Unless someone can tell me where I've got horribly, horribly wrong I think I'm done with the high poly

The erect one is more interesting to look at in my opinion.

The cuts on him are rather sharp and defined for flesh. Looks more like hard surface cuts. However, it's probably better for visibility this way.

The pustules? look like pustules, rather than scales? I am not sure what they are supposed to be without the texture, but I think you could make some of them less round/uniform and bubbly.

Overall really good work, I dig it.

BrontoThunder · May 2013

Good points, Frump! I'll make them look more like scales or hardened flesh and dirty up those scars a bit!

Spudnik · May 2013

@Bronto
Love it! The only part that looks a bit weird to me is the back horns in terms of how they curve/get fatter, but that's nitpicking

MechBgum · May 2013

I like it, one thing i think is that the tongue is over the top imo, makes it look too cartoonish.

Spudnik · May 2013

I dig the tongue, it really gives it that focal point.

Lennyagony · May 2013

This is epic Bronto, great sculpt and more importantly i like how much your works progressing each time i see something from you.

Hudston · May 2013

Really love that sculpt. He's got loads of character and it looks like he'll read really well in game!

Vextrakt · May 2013

Sick sculpt man, and +1 for the straight horn.

7thBattery · May 2013

I love that thing, tongue included. I don't have a problem with the 'hard cuts', I think they will read well at low-rez. And the 'pustules' look more like amphibian style 'toad bumps' than they do pustules to me.

The only thing I'd worry about with the tongues are the joints. Is he going to be on the default skeleton or are you planning on custom animating him?

BrontoThunder · May 2013

Texture progress!

I'm waiting on seeing it in-game before deciding how much of it needs to be covered with yellow.

Bonus Sketchfab too because why not?

I've also started a Batrider set to keep me busy

Hudston · May 2013

I absolutely love it. Superb job!

Robobobo · Jun 2013

brutal!

BrontoThunder · Jun 2013

Early stages of a Batrider set - still can't think of anything for his belt slot though..

Konras · Jun 2013

Love the bat Bronto!!!
One thing that bothers me is the wing anatomy. You could try adding third finger, instead of bone out from his elbow.
Here have a ref:
