Dominace War V - 3D - TBD - Dhin

[dhin]

Placeholder ...

Brainstorming:
God of Desperation
God of Lost Causes
God of Apathy
God of Glorious Carnage

Desperation: We are Bad Men, Doing Bad things in the name of Truth and Justice because there is no other way. We are the Unwanted, Unloved, Uncared About. We are the Pain of Loneliness, the Sorrow in Lost, the Question of How we can go one. We are the Murderer and the Victim, the Innocent and the Guilt... All turn to us. All Embrace us. All become us.

Multifaceted Creature twisting and writhing in its own agony.

Lost Causes: He always breaks out on the last lap, everyone knows this. The sure thing. A land war in Asia. Whatever his cause it is doomed to failure. The universe is doomed as is life, survival, a chance for happiness, Big-ToE getting everyone at 3DT is tattoo the team logo on their sacks. Any endeavor will fail, and time that victory is assured it is snatched from him, the flawless plan that at the most critical of moments revealing the flaw that was not thought of.

A lone dejected and broken looking man.

Apathy: I really can't be bothered by this right now.

Emo-Teen... meh.

Glorious Carnage: A Perfect Circle - Counting bodies like Sheep to the Rhythm of the War Drums

Don't fret precious I'm here, step away from the window
Go back to sleep
Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils
See, they don't give a f*ck about you, like I do

Count the bodies like sheep
Count the bodies like sheep
Counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drum

Not sure yet.

Sketches...

[dhin]

Just realized that #9 looks like MC Hammer... God of Hammers?

Leaning towards #4, #6 or #10

[Rych]

I really like the silhouette of 5 the kinda fat little dude, but I do like the wolf style one too.

Baron

[paulius-st]

i'd say its HAMMER TIME. :D . well i like the big woolf guy No10.

[dhin]

We'll see what happens, right now I'm the Wolfman and the Tribal Mask Guy are the ones I'm been playing the most with. But every time I look at #4 I just like the oddity of it, not what one would expect from a god in that Cthulhu sort of way.

Admittedly the fat spear guy could be really fun. I keep thinking that I could make him the lost causes one.

The wolf keeps ending up like a hairy snake-headed creature, like a Were-Quetzalcoat or something. Not a bad concept, but not really fitting any of my god concepts ATM. The Wolf or Rat heads I try make it look too cliche.

[DaddyDoom]

I love the vagina faced man.

[dhin]

Thank Big Daddy, I figured BIEBER'S BANE needed someone to be that yang to his yen. :D

[DaddyDoom]

did you see the new sketch? I'm thinkin' about doing a proper scene where he can jingle-jangle is godly sack.

[Warlock 279]

I think I find the fat guy the most interesting of those sketches. Something about his stance makes him the most godly looking.

[dhin]

Okay I'm convinced. I'll go with Porkins the God of the Little Fat Guy that is always in the wrong place at the wrong time, screwing things up for the people that need him not to be there.

Working on concept and model now...

[paulius-st]

finaly some modeling progress. :) for now i have nothing to coment exept this nice 3dt logo :) . just a few words about the character - wont it look cartoon like? i remember the brief that sais no cartoon entries.

[chris_solo]

more good ideas here!..
good luck dhin!

[dhin]

Paulius - that does raise an interesting question. I'd disregarded the cartoon thing since the examples were all 2D, but where is that line between stylized and cartoon?

Mario or Sonic would be cartoons, but Team Fortress 2 I would say is stylized. I'll have to ask ToE about this.

[dhin]

Okay, Porkins is out. The god of little fat b4$t4rd$ isn't working for me. Taking it another way, I'll post more this weekend.

[dhin]

Been working. Here is the progress...

[washka]

I liked n°4 Cthulu one, but this one is nice too.
Like this last (vagina) mask one, especially primitive style.

[dhin]

Doing this face feels like my 9th grade algebra notes all over again... 72 minutes of x=y/2 and I doodled full pages like that. Only problem is 20 some years later it hurts my forearm and index finger to do that more than a few minutes at a time...

Also does anyone know how to turn off the damn win 7 touch stuff, so it doesn't screw up my old wacom?
