Nice: )

Big Man looks like a Bad A** Dude: )

I like his new hair myself, the other one was pretty cool to: ) But I personally prefer the new style hair: )

You probably going to want to add more geometry between the forearm and upper arm, just so that he can deform better when you rig him.

And as for rigging try starign off with a Simple Biped if your able to use Biped.

Keep up the great work.

I think Cyrenn's right about deformation problems, but it's not because you need more geometry as much as it is design related. His appendages are all cylindrical, and he doesn't have any knees or elbows. His shoulders should be fine (Even if they're not, the pads will hide it), but he's not going to be bending his arms or legs.

It's not necessarily a bad thing, I think it makes him seem more collosal. Slow and somewhat unwieldy, but you won't get up if he hits you.

I liked the old hair better too.

Keep the updates coming, nice work!

actually i thought of all that deforming stuff
and i havent updated the wire.
there are more polys for his elbow, and i think his knees should be fine since behind the knee pads there is alot of space for the deforming to happen.

you guys keep up the good work too

Which elbow are you planning to use? He doesn't have one.

His shoulder leads right into the forearm, I don't know what you're talking about. That forearm guard shouldn't be doing any deforming, so he really CAN'T bend his arm. Once again, it's not a bad thing, but the only way I think you'll get elbow deformations would be to totally redesign the arm.

You might be able to prove me wrong, of course. In which case I invite everyone to come laugh at me.

Nice Work Evil. Love him. I still like that bald head better lol. Maybe lose the fangs, and close the mouth?

The fangs look cool, you could just move the jaw forward so the fangs don't go into his upper lip. Keep up the good work.

hey evil i really like the new look man !....the only thing i would do if i was you is try a test rigg, because now that i look at it you might have a problem bending the the arm with (elbow area) the bolt/screw in the way....but i love this model man !
