Ranger

Krallis · 20-03-2011, 08:58 PM

Well, having the idea of a Threedy Army bandied around in the Dom War V thread inspired me to start this ranger character.
Im starting with the organic creature and then im going to create its armour and weapon.

This is what ive got so far.

Krallis · 21-03-2011, 04:19 PM

Update.
Stepped up a level.

Its gonna be awesome, keep walking.

Krallis · 21-03-2011, 05:29 PM

Cheers, im still reworking the detail into something i like though.

TDW · 21-03-2011, 09:12 PM

Interesting character design.

Maybe don't go in with the details so hard at the current stage and work on the shapes first. Curious how the final model will turn out, keep it up!!!

Yeah, currently ive actually brought all the detail back, mainly because it looked too busy, but there was also some forms i wasnt happy with.

Is that interesting good, or interesting bad.

Krallis · 22-03-2011, 06:40 PM

More work done.
Brought back the details to try and rework them and the underlying form.

E4sY · 22-03-2011, 07:40 PM

the proportions look good. i think the pelvic and stomach should be brought out more. The knee joints could be more clearly sculpted. The character as a whole looks a bit too skinny atm (especially around the stomach). The hands could do with some more work. They look more like talons then hands atm. Other then that this is a very interesting character. It looks menacing like a predator, but it also looks possibly intelligent and civilized. Don't know if u try other materials, but it helps me to see the character in a basic or fast shader material as there's way less light reflection than the red wax.

Krallis · 22-03-2011, 07:53 PM

Several things.

A, its meant to look skinny. (im working on trying to balance the muscles with this atm)
B, those are talons.

The knees are rather hard to get right though, especially with these digitigrade double jointed legs.

You might want to check out the Arbiter's knees from the Halo series, Bungie did a really good job of that kind of knee....

Krallis · 23-03-2011, 07:28 AM

I did, and he doesnt really appear to have knees.

Krallis · 23-03-2011, 09:28 PM

Update.

Krallis · 27-03-2011, 05:19 PM

Changed the legs, still working on the lower legs and the anatomy around the back of the upper legs.
Lower legs are a pain in the ass...

Krallis · 30-03-2011, 08:55 PM

Finally got a design for the lower legs

Krallis · 07-04-2011, 10:55 PM

Update. Ive been working on the legs more. Its tricky to nail down the right design that fits woth the rest of the character, but I think ive pulled it off rather successfully.

Progress has been slow due to the holiday's starting the other week.

Comments and criticism is more than welcome as usual.
