Gift to the Gods - The Earth God - MightyReg

[MightyReg]

Already brainstorming while I am at job :P

Anymay I am thinking of an huge God that passe every 100 years to claim an offrance, not an human sacrifice but maybe a very valuable treasure. I'm thinking of putting this in a giant temple, with a giant door from where the God would come and go back.

For the Earth God I am thinking of something like the Colossus from the game ''Shadow of the Colossus''. That game is awesome artistically.

Going to start a sketch tonight when I get back from job.

Omg im sorry mate for the tittle.

in fact i dident want to make anything wrong in the tittle, so i just copied another title, in this case yours, and only changed my name and forgot everything about the tittle for my picture
yeah i know, what a dumbass i will try get it fixed - sorry mate, wasent ment to steal your tittle

Kind Regards

Andreas Olsen

Like your idea btw!

EDIT:

Ok, deleted the old thread with your tittle, and made me a new one

[MightyReg]

This is something like that I am thinking to do for the temple. Replace the God Statue by my Earth God, and behind him a giant open door with light coming from it. And of course a better camera then this frontal one.

[MightyReg]

Yeah now that I am thinking of it, a month is not much for a project like that... might end up just doing the Earth God finally (and I'm not even sure I would have time to do it )

Hey Mighty, great idea,
Hope you can finish it man
Good luck
Cheers

Ok been thinking of my concept, and I might go for an animal-like God. I was thinking of something like a bull, with long horns unlike the picture, don't know.

[MightyReg]

Ok, here is my first sketch. I finally took my bull idea but merged it with an humanoid God. Still thinking of thing I could do to make it better, I am not a concept artist at all. And I know the shoulder looks strange.

If you have ideas on how to make it more interesting don't hesitate to tell me.

Ok, so far its an interesting design. I like the Minitor kind of feel.

My advice, work a time of day that if you were in that temple the moment he walked in through the doors, you would in complete awe.

Thanks wargrafix for the comment, I will try to see if I could maybe do things that would make him more God-like and less minotaur like since I don't want him to look like a monster.
As for the temple, I don't think I will have time to work on that part, maybe if I have the time at the end, it will depends.

Oh and I would add also that this guy is supposed to be gigantic (a human would be approxiately as tall as his hoofs).

[wargrafix]

The armor quality will differentiate a monster from a god. Gods get the shiny stuff.

There is always time for pancakes! A trick I have learned is rendering what you want to be seen. You can use the trick of showing parts illuminated by light and hide the majority of the temple.

Big God-like shiny armor - noted! Thanks for the advice! I'll do researches tonight on armors.

I was also thinking of adding glowing glyphs and symbols on the armor (as you can maybe see on the left arm wrist armor).

[sarN]

god of what? i think the particular type of god, maybe of war, of knowledge, of beauty, etc, will help you determine how it will look. i like that concept so far, though it does seem a bit 'distant' more like a drone than a deity

[Willzone]

nice sketch maybe it could be the god of destruction with that big hammer :P.

[MightyReg]

sarN, Willzone : As it is said in the title, he is supposed to be an Earth God (you know like the element, Fire Water Wind and Earth).

He can control everything that comes from the ground.

If you give him the gift he ask each 100 years, he will reward you by influencing the quality of the agriculture, plants, etc.

Make him angry, and he shall punish you with his giant hammer, provoking earthquakes and even make a volcano pop out from the ground.

I want him to look neither bad, neither good. A passive God.
That's in part why I gave him the characteristics of a bull, because they can be passive but also extremely aggressive if you anger them.

Thanks for commenting my sketch, appreciate a lot. Tonight I will start the body's base mesh. Stay tuned.

oh i see. for an earth god i would think something more natural, i guess a golem is slightly cliche, but armor made of rocks / dirt with grass growing out of it, flowers, and such, would definitely be cool. i think if you had kind of a blank, but intimidating figure, covered in rocks and flowers, it would show the dynamic that you're trying to achieve. but who knows!
