Hey! nice work here! You made a great improve with this characters. I really like your stylized anatomy and proportions! Great job with hand painted textures too. I cant wait to see more! Keep working good luck!
Your moodboard is cool, but you need some solid anatomy references in there to help get the general face shape in. Once you have the planes of the face, you can push and pull them (within reason) to make her more unique/stylised.
i'd say metal parts still could use more contrast, other than that it looks great. previous works kick ass as well, chess piece has a really convincing anatomy and texture of thief girl shows awesome material definition.
Just managed to finish of this piece, or at least to a place where i can call it done and be happy to move on! I think from this point on, at least for now I'm going to focus more on anatomy studies as im finding myself lacking on my fundamentals.
I think everything people have mentioned is spot on with the cap folds, and anatomy. I would add that I really like the shapes and design of the armor, but I think a tad bit of color would make it look awesome. Just my thoughts.
The anatomy is a tad off, especially in the arms. To be honest though, since this is your first go at a model like this I would just say ignore it. Concentrate on creating an interesting looking hi poly model more so than what is anatomically correct.
You don't need full definition but its smart to spend some time on the base and make sure the proportions are correct and make sense. Too often people rush into armor/clothing etc and end up really falling short on the anatomy of the figure.
maybe make the legs a bit chunkier then. I have no idea how this concept mech doesn't fall over, but it's legs are pretty beefy, so I believe it could support its own weight and balance itself, similar to human anatomy in a way...
Thinking alot about demons at present, thinking i might try a 3D bust sculpt at some point soon. Want to study various ellements of Anatomy before starting to sculpt. study of demon horn yealded this small sketch Reference here
Thanks for the feed back, I HAVE learnt a lot this semester and by doing this module. A lot of ideas, principles and anatomy, all of which I aim to apply in the future. Please keep an eye out for my future work as I intend to post it on here.
