Fan art - Lady Deathstrike

[Manuel.S]

Hey guys,
I believe this is my first post here, but I got interested in the challenge so here we go. The character I chose is Lady Deathstrike, she is one of my favorite villains and I'd like an attempt to pay tribute to all her madness.
Here is some of the reference I’ll be using.

That makes 3 of us :). But I'm curious to your sculpt so I'm gonna follow you while sculpting.

[Manuel.S]

Glad to see fellow forum newbies here :).
So I started my base mesh in max, fairly simple mesh, just wanted to get proportions in the ballpark as well and a decent Tpose to work of off.

looking really nice..the detail is looking great...feel the head is a little large compared to the rest of the body...but like I said before love the style ur going with

looks really great - for some reason she reminds me of witchblade !

[Manuel.S]

Thanks guys,
I agree she does have some resemblance to witchblade, didn’t notice it till you mentioned it. :) And thanks for the crit I'll probably shrink her head a bit.
Glad you guys are enjoying the WIP, it has been fun. Wanted to step away from the character a bit and made a quick sculpt, not related to this challenge, but meh its part of the process anyway :).
Obviously a very quick sculpt, fun nonetheless
