r0x_my_s0x – Indiana Jones– Carrington

[r0x_my_s0x]

I'm gonna get in on this one, liking the theme. So far I've thrown together a mood/ideas board, drew a quick sketch (which I'll keep to myself cos its **** :P ) and started blocking the silhouette.

The basic idea for this guy is one of those old English explorer types (think that dude from Jumanji) but from and alternate reality where things went tits up way back when. Now he explores the surface of the earth in a retro sci-fi style suit. Hard to explain but the mood board might give you a better idea.

I'll show some wires later, they are a mess the now Going for a bit more of a stylised character. He'll have a nice steam punky respirator and a big dome helmet on at some point.

Slight update, maybe a bit easier to see where I wanna take him. Pushing to finish the initial low poly today so more updates soon.

great concept and progress

Really like what you've got going here, the top glass is a nice touch and I like how the hands are a bit disproportionate. Keep it up.

This reminds me of the Major General from Pirates of Panzance; hes the guy who sings that really fast song:
"I am the very model of a modern major general
I've information, vegetable, animal, or mineral
I know all the kings of England and all the wars historical
From marathon to waterloo, in order categorical"

Love to concept this has heaps of potential, I really liked the character Potts from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang you've got in there, this will look great Nice start so far, good proportions..... looking forward to updates

Looks pretty clean.
May i ask for a wire frame?

Looking awesome. The hat is a nice touch.

[Bananaman]

Hehe, the same hat idea popped into my mind when I was thinking of a fun character to make.

The hands might be a bit to big (if you're going for realism), although I personally really like how they look in the silhouette.
The only part that bothers me is the wrist, you might wanna scale it up a just a little bit to get rid of the taper effect(<shaded version).

Anyway, keep it up. Looks awesome so far.

nice stuff going on here...loved the idea for whole head thing...
Dont you think he will smoke his pipe to death if he stays on with that helmet? :P

[r0x_my_s0x]

Thanks for the comments guys.

@Cordero I'll post the wires when I start cleaning up the low poly, very messy at the moment as I was just focusing on the shape.
@gauravcg he's an old school hard arse

Quick update, just sketching my first idea for the head. Nothing final/polished/good but here goes. Feedback welcome.

[chris_solo]

nice design head,
we see that you have some experience and you may be working in the game design...

[r0x_my_s0x]

Bit more work on the face, beard is taking longer than I intended :P
Last up today.
@chris_solo I work in the games industry, yes.
