[DOTA 2] Doombringer - The Fires of Heaven
polycounter lvl 12
Working on a Doom set with my cosmic superpal Jalcober
Rough concept belooow
Trying to do something unconventional with the wings. No fluffy feathers or whatnot here, the poor sod has seven scrolls stabbed to his back

Doombringer is a not so cleverly disguised Lucifer so the scrolls and eyeless helmet work together to create a bound and sealed motif.

im most likely gonna end up redoing this
sadly a big chunky mace doesn't work too well as is, but i'm sure i'll find something decent eventually
also have even more weapon thumbs!
some of them are meant to be corrupted versions of whatever sword he used to wield before getting booted out of heaven. i think doom's got a reasonable claim to being a former divine rapier wielder
oh, and I like the helmet but you shouldn't mess with the overal silouette too much,
so if there is nothing sticking up from around his head he isn't that recongnizable!
just saying, bc those original horns are one of his major assets,
and a sword!
Good idea with the scrolls, concepts are looking good as well.
texturing time! just the blade so far. gonna crank out the head as well today
I think that is up to valve. Adding animations would require me to change the whole rig for him and I dont think they are accepting animations yet.
But yes, adding animation right now is a very easy way to throw the contest if they don't like it.
speaking of which!
Tip on how to animate the scrolls without the extra bones:
Put the entire thing on the correct bone on his back but also use other random bones from his shoulders and legs etc. but give them weights only slightly. Ex: Some of the scrolls on the left bind them slightly to the left leg and head, the right scrools to the right leg and left arm, and mix and match a bit. What will happen is that they will move slightly whenever the character is moving. If he is standing there breathing they will move as well and so on. This might work but it is very tricky to make it feel normal and not weird but it might just avoid the static problem.
Ooh awesome! I will try that.
Could be great if it can be done without new bones
The tail is getting textured im rigging the wings atm
Heres the hat ingame.
