My super delayed Dom war 4 entry, learned allot from working on it, but I want to work on something else now so its done haha, maybe I will finish on time next year. T__T
Looks like you followed your concept pretty well, nice work.
Overall the sword is distracting the animation. Despite it's massive size it looks weightless and harmless for it. He's doesn't look strong enough to be wielding it like a dagger. He needs to be dragging it behind or leaning it against his shoulder to convey a convincing weight. It should affect his walk, pulling behind or weighing down one side.
Animation probably wasn't your main concern, but it's something to consider in the future.
Looks sweet Tom, I really like how the textures turned out.
As for the animation, it looks like you're using IK on the arms? Also, it doesn't look like his upper body/spine is rotating with his arm movement. I know animation wasn't the focus, so I won't crit it too much.
Crits:
- Metal reads a bit like stone.
- Wrinkles read a bit more like plastic dryer hose (or the arms on the robot from lost in space) than fabric or leather.
- Animation needs much lovin, but still cool to see it move.

Nice job on the character though

Cool texturing as well
A lot better than my finished on time Dom War entry lol.
