I like the top left too. Great proportion.

Right it more strong + fast. I think trying to balance both attributes waters down the concept. Just go for strong.

Yeah, i like the top left one better as well. it just seems more hulking, it conveys the concept of the character more, it looks more menacing.

Nice... I like him.

I feel that nature would suit this guy more in some way... maybe because of his colors.

-JL- -- I think your right about the nature, plus I think nature will be overlooked in this comp

kongni -- Costuming is the next part I am not gonna go to far into 3d without a solid idea this time around. I have some ideas brewin just need to put it to paper. Glad you liked my entery from last year, I wish I would have focused more on it

Hahah He's looking big and burly! awsome man. Would expect nothing less!
as a crit, I thin you could push the tattoos and the face a bit more. and he's a perfect candidate for two smaller arms in the front, sor he's got two mits that just do damage, and then two like praying mantis hooks, might look cool. Looking forward to the armor.

Awesome look! But would have prefered you kept that sweeping up horns that look like V. Everything that shapes like V is awesome

Very cool. I like the tats and hope you keep them right up until the final design. Are you still gonna keep the sword?

Very nice and beefy Almost doesn't need the sword; have you thought of dropping it and going for some other (more discreet) artefact? With those arms it's not like he needs a weapon at all :P
