Hey guys and gals, YAY another year of Dominance War.

This is sort of the best of what i came up with on sunday for something in the Norm Category. hes a bone collector who uses skulls and various bones to perform powerful dark magic spells. his Maraca of doom is a particular devistating item. with "unforseen powers"

I plan to do a few more ideas. Perhaps play with the idea of an abominaton or a demon lord.

[JakeLV426]

I think this guy is pretty sweet....except he definitely doesn't seem like a norm.
I love the idea of a "Moracca of Doom"....that's freakin awesome.

[Blenderhead]

Can't see him being a norm, but I quite like it, very refined design already I like the native American vibe.

[Mike_K]

thats really cool man, very unique

[SgtJoesphCrack]

thanx for everybody's comments guys.

I think he falls into the norm category, if he doesn't, then he doesn't fit anywhere. it says that norms are any sentient being with a heart beat, and then it rattles off several random species. he would be a dark magic creature that is part bird and part lizard. and falls into the invoker category.

Ill try to throw some more ideas up tonight after i get off work.
good luck everybody.

[SgtJoesphCrack]

here are some more of the thumbs I've done. I think i still want to stick with this bird guy unless everyone agrees it doesn't work for the contest

[SgtJoesphCrack]

some quick zbrushing.

[JakeLV426]

Well, when you put it like that, I guess he could be a norm.
But he's definitely one Wrinkle in Time far out Norm! :thumb:

good start dude. diggin the anatomy you got going. good shapes to start. yea i dont see what he can't be norm.

[SgtJoesphCrack]

Los: thanks los appreciate it.

Jake: thanks man nice reference to a wrinkle in time.







so I decided against the centaur body felt it was just to much and not really what I was picturing.

had some zbrush related crashes slowing my progress down a bit but i hope to finish the highpoly over the weekend.

also there are more progress shots on my blog link below.

Tight man. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the armor/clothing on this dude. The Game Artisans logo is perfect too.

[SgtJoesphCrack]

Thanks for the comment nuke. Most of the gear is still being conceptualized.
I will probably use extracts to concept out the shapes and then model off of those in max to create the high poly gear.

[Blk Biscuit]

looking good man....I like the face...looking forward to seeing your progress on this...keep it coming

[KewopDecam]

he looks like he's throwing gang signs, lol

[SgtJoesphCrack]

BlkBiscuit - thanks double A ron. Hope you do well again this year:lucky: . I saw your thread haven't thought of something harsh enough to say about it. hehe

KewopDecam - I can kinda see what you mean. its probably just the pose sort of giving that look. unless his gang sign is "live long and Prosper"


little zbrush updating. I thought id be alot further by now but for whatever reason this guys is going kinda slow. still plenty of time though.



one of the primary feathers. id place these in the zbrush file but each one is about a million polys so.... were all gonna have to use our imagination for what itll look like with the all the feathers.

[los]

lookin good so far dude.
first thing i noticed was the armor on his lower belly, its too repetitive of a design, maybe break it up some, instead of it just being all horizontal lines. the anatomy you have going so far looks pretty rad.

[pongstah]

Adding crow feathers to the wings was a nice touch. Separates it from all those demons with bat wings

[TheQiwiMan]

Sooo freakin awesome! The pecs on top of pecs, hiding the second collar-bone is a nice touch, usually I've noticed Artists have trouble creating multiple-armed characters since the muscle-structure around the pecs and shoulder area can be tricky. I think you pulled it off beautifully!

Awesome work man!

[WhiteGuardian]

Wow, that character remind me with Mortal Kombat's villains. :thumb: :thumb:
Can't wait the color version

[Bokaja]

Haha how cool is this - the feathers will be a nice touch i think
Great work! More!
