Commander Adept Nemo

[Warbringerd]

Hey guys just a few early shots of my model I'm working on. Its from Warmachine if anyone is interested, any how its Commander adept Nemo from the cygnar faction. Still in the early stages right now. I have a bit of reference but alot of the backside is guess work as I have been unable to get any reference for it. Anyways crits and comments are always welcome.

[JuST]

Good start.
Are you going to sculpt in more details?
I'm looking forward to see more.

[Warbringerd]

Here is another Update. Been working onthe arms, still much more to go.

Just Hey..Yea I'm going to take it into Zbrush once I get all the pieces modeled in maya. Then I will sculpt out the details and I'm even going to try the base texture painting in Z. Hopefully it will turn out how I see it in my head.

[Warbringerd]

Small update, arms are being done and for the most part they are all there, some minor adjustments will need to be done. Will be working on the legs and lower torso next. Been unwrapping as I go so thats why there doesn't seem to be much in the way of modelling progression so far.
I'm starting to get antsy to take this into Z..Can't get there fast enough. Oh well.

Yea I have some resizing to do, I tell ya Next model that I do is going to have so much reference it will be bleeding out my A$$!!! with only 2 pieces of reference for this guy its hard to try to maintain proportions, especially since they are different in both images. Once the main structure is there I will resize to get it looking right. But for the most part I just want the structure to look right. I wish I had the actual mini in hand so I could take some shots of it.
If anyone reading this plays warmachine (cygnar faction) and you have a Nemo mini can you take some photo reference and post it here or send it to me?
Well its worth a try.

[Warbringerd]

Well Been a few days since I was last able to get some progress on my model. I managed to get some ore done today and I'm still going @ it. I've been unwrapping (not sure if I said this already) as I model so that way its not all left to the end. Anyhow here is where I'm at so far, still more to do but I might go in and do some Zbrushing soon, then I can at least see if there are other elements that can be added. Not sure will figure it out though.

[Warbringerd]

Wow another post so soon, still going at it, Goggles are done, most the unwrapping, going to work on the hair next. Sooo close.

[Warbringerd]

well had a few days off to try and figure out what to do with the hair for this guy and I stumbled upon some stuff that I like from Zbrush central, I took the main idea of how thier character was done and used the same idea for my own and I think it looks not bad. I will be working on it more in Zbrush but this is the low maya version right now. Also here is a look at the model with the camera plane reference.

[M_Cederstrom]

it has an anime feel to it. :D looking good.

[Warbringerd]

Started a bit of Zbrush on the head

[Warbringerd]

Here are the goggles for the character, Been having fun in Zbrush and constantly learning. I havn't been able to get to the computer to do work over the past few days but here is what I was able to get in.

[Warbringerd]

Another Update, been doing some hair work, Man who would have thought Hair could be so tough, I'm liking where it is going and I have a bit ore to do on it. I tried a few different things but this is the better direction. Let me know what you think.

[SR_6274]

That is looking really nice so far. Love what you've done with his hair. Those goggles look great too. Can't wait to see the rest of it now :)

[patient09]

looking good. keep the updates coming.

[Warbringerd]

Thanks for the encouragement guys, anyways got some work done today on the gloves, not done yet but here is where they sit.

[patient09]

you're getting the hang of this whole zbrushing thing eh.

nice.

[iamnick]

The gloves are looking sweet, good detailing.

[Warbringerd]

Well been away from the 3D thing for a while, needed to take a breather and get refreshed. Its not much but I have started to get back into the swing of things and I'm working on getting a viable schedule running where I can get to work on stuff. Here is a small update to the model I have been working on. Its the finished gloves(finnished in the sense that if I think it needs more later I will do more)

[TheBat]

Gloves are looking really good and nicely detailed! Keep up the good work!

[Warbringerd]

Here is another update, started on the upper armor. Not done much in the way of armor work in Zbrush b4 so just seeing what I'm capable of. I might try some reworking of the topology since I'm finding that there is a slight direction shift and its throwing off some of the sculpt. Anyhow here is where I'm at right now I still have the other side to do.

[Warbringerd]

Small update, did some detailing on the chest plate. The material on the back looks pulled from the middle but no worries as other geometry sits on top and it looks like it pulls from the right spot. Hope you like it and C&C's always welcome.

[patient09]

details are coming together and it's looking good. final scene should be sweet.

i don't see the pulled geometry you're talking about?

[Bob Marley]

Yeah i like it too : )

[Warbringerd]

Just a quick update as b4 I go get my son up from his nap and have lunch, more to come.

[Warbringerd]

More detailing, Had to change a few things on the back as I forgot certain elements overlaped and the old details looked weird. Here is what i have so far.

[Warbringerd]

I don't know maybe its me I guess I'm just a bit slow, dealing with external matters and family, regardless here is an update. Not an exception amount done but some new stuff.

[NinthJake]

This looks really nice :)

Although the gloves does seem a bit thin.

Keep the updates coming. Great job! :D

[Warbringerd]

A quick update, the chest armor and Lightniong Pack are done.
