Hello There,

Just joined Polycount so I could start a thread about my mixamo character that im working on. I chose the sword and shield character. I've finished the humanoid body and I've started concepting in Zbrush. I dont have any conceptart for this so I guess I'll have to see where this goes.

-----------------
LATEST PIC:










First timelapse Vid (sorry, I dont know how to embed videos... =/ ) :


Comments/feedback are most welcome. Thanks!

Hello everyone. I havent been able to work too much on this becuase of work.My hours are insane.

The previous design wasnt coming out too well so I decided to change everything. I still have a few things to finish here and there. Im seriously thinking about changing the helmet (way too big.):

progress so far:








I also created a lion head that I'll be putting on the belt and shoulder areas.

I love your lion sculpt, but I think it'd be a bit much to have it in so many places with no apparent variation.

hmmm, that is true. Though I did kind of change it a bit in the sword and sheild. The shield lion has whisker pores and the sword doesnt because it wont be needed. I might just add the lion to the belt buckle and thats it.

Thank guys!

Yeah it's better now. You should add something between the pauldron and the shoulders, some protection. Pauldrons look too thinh and floating.

Thanks. I thought about that, I'll have to try and see. I tried thicker armor and it doesnt look good.
