Eye Test + BWC entry WIP

[aven]

Hello Blender friends, the project (Blade Of Hell) I’ve been working on, fit in with the BWC contest and It’s the same deadline I have. Even though I’m pretty new to blender, I figured what the heck. I love Blender and the support it has! Why not. It does take me a long time but I guess it’s that learning curve I just hope I get it done in time.

Well here is an eye test I modeled and textured That’s the color I was going for. I’m not really going for super realistic more of a comic book/anime style.
NEW GUY just to let you know

Here is a sketch, one of many I’m going to model. I hope I get them done (crossing my fingers).

Well hope to see you soon!

I cant say much about the eye, looks good to me

But the concept art is fantastic! I would love to model that character myself

[ionee]

i think this is going to be great!!

[aven]

Well finally had some time. I saw some great BWC wip got me excited and motivated:) I wish all of them the best of luck and I’m honored to be with such great 3D artist:D

Well here’s more sketches. YES, still in that stage but the good thing is that I have the whole scene planned.

What I’m working on, is a half demon, dragon, human all in one and I decided to share my process.

I make several pass on a character before I finalized and create it in 3D.
This charcter’s head is almost in the final stage don’t have a body yet so that’s up next.

woah O_o
that’s really good

if your blending looks as good as your drawings i think you’ll win

[LyleA876]

Looks great. The one thing that comes to mind is that maybe the eye should have some blood vessels running through it.

[tyrant_monkey]

you drawing skills are awesome like jeepster said if your modeling matches up than there is a good chance of you winning.

[browntb]

Love the drawing and concept art! I’ll be following along with this thread.

The eye looks very similar to Pablo’s eyes on Venom’s Lab, at least the same iris image. Nothing really to critique there, it looks good! They will be perfect on the guy with the crazy beard!

[Krayon]

Impressive sketches. Good luck with this one. I’ll be following closely.

[aven]

Well I drawn the body, I like it so far It’s time to draw the body blue print to model from.

Little back story:
Meet DRAMAN, A once noble dragon who traded his honor and virtues to become human. In appearance he might look human but
inside, all that is left is a monster.

woah O_o
that’s really good

Well thanks for the boost of confidence, I too hope my sculpting is as good as my drawings, I guess we’ll just have to see?

PS: Can’t wait to see your final, That looks great.

Everyone has a chance my friend win or lose I’m in it for the journey. Can’t wait to see that Motley Crew in 3D.

Yes your correct I got that Venoms Lab CD, IT’s Great learning tool.
For the guy with the beard I’m afraid he won’t be in the final image of my BWC but he will be in my project. So I’m still going to sculpt him.

Krayon

Thanks for looking, I feel like I’m going slowly but it looks promising.

[aven]

Well here’s an update just a rough model. Still A lot to do :yes:
Made him a little bit bigger and with shorter stucky legs

1. Drew front side profile with graph paper it helps A LOT!

2. Used Blender for base mesh.
   a. Used cube with a mirror modifier
3. Just used profile as a guide. I moved the arms up a little

[aven]

Quick reply
Here’s an update! Changed a couple of things, Still not done with details but it’s a start
Sculpted in Z-Brush That’s mostly what I did. Oh, and used cylinders and cubes to make gums, teeth, and horns in blender. (not yet sculpted)

I’m not sure if it’s “allowed” to comment someone else BWC entry, but this is gonna be great:)

I really dig your hand-drawing, modelling looks good too.

[Carrozza]

As Melon said.
Really cool artistic drawings, love the faces.

[Freak]

This is amazing indeed, you are very likely going to win with such skills. Sketches are beyond amazing, professional stuff. Modeling\Sculpting comes along really nicely too.

I also dig the the concept of both the creature and the mad monk. Kind of reminds of Blizzards Warcraft undead abominations (the fat form, frankenstein like body part madness) only much much cooler.

[ionee]

CREEPY!
but i like it

[Jeepster]

ha,
talented artist + zbrush = winner!
great stuff so far
I wanna see how this turns out

[aven]

Damn! It’s getting closer and closer

It took me so long to learn how to do maps. I only got a little bit done

But at least I know how to do: ZBrush to Blender
Set up UV’s in Blender
Nomal Maps
Color Map
Specular map
Displacement Map

Well here’s what I got done( Not a Lot ) Still so much to do
