DWIV - 3D - Fixor - Eckhart

Fixor · 21-03-2009, 11:23 AM

Hello,

First DW for me!

Here's my guy: ECKHART

Description:

Eckhart is a Demon Prince, unleashed to the DW universe to peel, cut, flay and crush. He's mastering the Cizors, his twin flesh tearing blades of Darkness - no one and nothing can resist.
One day, he peeled off the skin and sand the bone of his face in endless suffering, to replace it by one of a beautifull young woman he loved... but that's another story.(Note: he is not a really good plastic surgeon, to be honest).
Feared and hated among the Demon hordes, he swings frenetically his Cizors whatever is around: human, elf, cyborg, other demons, or even his own car.
Some people have a bit of a temper when you call them "Chiken". Eckhart is like that when he laughs.

Early sketch:

Checklist:

- Belt with 3DTotal Logo
- Big mittens
- Toolset hanging on his working clothes (need more doco for the tools)
- Big harness to support the weight of the tools and the big Cizors when docked on his back
- Big working shoes with protection against blood.
- He wears somebody else skin head like a hood stiched around his neck. the eyes socket of the hood dont'fit really well.
- He needs something from a demon: spine?

First Orthos WIP

New proportions

- The silhouette is characterized.
- Some ideas for the "Demon attribute".

Looks like a pretty solid start. Something with the spine would be the most subtle approach though perhaps a little less than you have now. Maybe the bones on the outside down the length of the spine would work well?

anima3d · 21-03-2009, 12:01 PM

#1 spine mixed with #2 weird horns could be interesting

BiG ToE-3DT · 21-03-2009, 12:28 PM

I'm thinking the first orthos proportions are better suited for this comp than the second batch of thumbnails.

The first one, gives off a powerfull feel where as the second one, looks more like he would be an underling, doing nasty jobs for the king or the guy in charge.

chris_solo · 21-03-2009, 12:33 PM

yes good start, first is nice.

Ichiban · 21-03-2009, 01:36 PM

Pretty good design, but I agree with Toe, the first one is more solid. The horns study is pretty good though. keep it up

Linc · 21-03-2009, 02:06 PM

I'd have to agree as well. The first looks badass, should go with that and develop it a little. Second looks more like a cartoon character.

The1Walker · 21-03-2009, 02:08 PM

it looks like we all agree that the first is where its at. great concepts though

L3XICON · 21-03-2009, 02:17 PM

agree with the others, the early sketch has a real nice vibe. would be nice to see some of the changes from the later concepts too, giving it a more interesting silouette. although maybe horns should be avoided as your gonna see 90% of entries this year with horns.. something unique could add a nice flavour to an already great design

DJdude · 21-03-2009, 02:40 PM

The first proportions were better imo. It would look cool if you incorporated the spines in it.

Fixor · 22-03-2009, 11:44 AM

Sweet guys! Thank you all for passing by and giving your feedback, really appreciated!

As unanimously suggested, I'm going for the first proportions - probably with the spine

Here is some Front Orthos WIP.

Nice render of your concept. I feel that the left hand is missing something, but once you add the weapon should balance that bracelet on his right-hand. It keeps dragging my eyes to that hand and ignoring the rest of him.

Ichiban · 22-03-2009, 11:46 AM

Good stuff

Sathe · 22-03-2009, 11:49 AM

awesome style!

Cracadoo · 22-03-2009, 11:54 AM

Great concept. His face still don't have feel of stretched skin, but i guess it's still quite rough sketch. Anyway, I like
