Day 2, carrying out with the blockout and concepting stage in zbrush. Updated the proportions too.
Still working on the blockout, can't wait to dynamesh this and start working on more organic shapes. Also playing around with the helmet and thinking about using a visor.
Oh also, I made some weapons on the back, I'll figure out how to make them work in the future... haha
Even though the armor is no where near final, I will be changing the shapes a lot using dynamesh, I did a little overpaint. Highlights are where I want to put some accents, maybe gold or something along those lines. Dark/textured areas are where I want to have more noise/mechanical parts visible. The mid values are the resting areas. Didn't really touch the wings or cloths in this overpaint, just the armor. Mainly so that when I carry on modelling/dynamesh sculpting I know where I want to put more mechanical details and where to leave it more plain.
If anyone has any thoughts on the wing design let me know! I quite like the 2nd one, but looking forward to hearing some other opinions.
Doodling around with some secondary shape designs and colors, nothing serious. Do appreciate feedback if you got any!
Thanks! Wasn't happy how busy it started to look and difficult to read so I reduced some of the lines. Below the waist it's still untouched so I will try to get to the point where I can more or less see the final design tomorrow
Hey guys, still doodling around with the armor trying to find out exactly what I like and a good ratio of details to empty space. Almost completely redone it
Last update for tonight.Â
My only critique is that he has so much going on with his armor that my eyes gets a little confused on where to look. I think if you kept the details on his helmet and torso but found a way to simplify the shapes on his legs, arms, and maybe shoulder pieces. It just needs some more areas of rest between the details in my opinion.Â
I think the gold works nicely for the side of good, but it might also be a little too similar with Overwatch's Mercy. Maybe something more like a lighter blue for the accents could work? Either way keep up the awesome work, man!Â
Thanks guys, also narrowed the headpiece a little and just went over the colors again. Started to add another layer on this guy, which is going to be under the armor mechanical parts. These pieces will have more detail and on top of them I will be having more clean looking plates for the eyes to rest. Still nothing here is final design.
Full body shot
The visor on the helmet bothers me. I don't think he can see in front of him with that design being so low on the face.
Other than that it looks pretty cool
Just retopologized the mesh so it's mostly clean, apart from one of the shoulders. Will move one to more layers and details soon. Maybe cover up the stomach area a bit more with white plates.
Hey guys, bit of update on the armour. Decided add some more interesting accents on the armor. Not sure about the colors yet, and obviously the leg area will be seeing a lot of improvement. Hope you like it
What are your thoughts on these shoulders? You like them better or not?
Made a sword for this guy. Will do some more changes on the blade and the detailed handle part.
Okay guys so this is super important decision I need help on. Do you think he looks better with the clean armor or the one with ornaments and details? I'm starting to think that I should go back to previous version
Great job!
Hey guys a little update. Still refining and finalizing the final sculpt, but I am slowly getting there. You can still see some faceted parts, but that's what I am working on right now. Might do one last revision on the shoulder armor as well
Felt that pauldrons didn't read well at all and looked like a mess so I'm reworking them. Put that hawk head there as a joke, but I quite like what it looks like, I'll see if I will carry it out. Obviously make the head more sculpture like and stylized-mech looking.
For the first time in a long time, starting to get really happy with this character. I will revamp the bracers completely and then quickly move to retopo and final textures.Â
Hey guys this is my finished high poly piece and the basic color scheme. I would like to thank everyone who took their time to comment on my progress. I am quite happy with this character as this is the first original armor/character design that I've done. Now off to texturing!
These are preview shots from substance painter.
And my first version of textures (they look a bit different now, added more accents)
Super crappy screenshot of the final paint scheme.
Test with the weapon (the blue parts will be glowing):

My critics would be still too much details. Can't read the model well
