Arborus 7 Posted April 12, 2009 well here it is so far iv been working on it for about 20-30 minutes and it looks promising as you can see there are no arms legs or color yet suggestions welcome more to come in the next hour or so probable things i need help with: what weapon he will be wielding im leaning toards either a broad sword or a battle ax how he will be holdind said weapon how he is standing until some of these are decided im just going to be tweaking what i have done I'd say work on the eyes, the shape of the head, and the general anatomy of the body. The head is looking egg-ish and the eyes are HUGE. the body is looking really skinny, he needs some sort of muscle, he doesn't have to be ripped and exploding with muscles, but he could at least be somewhat buff.

prediter45 0 Posted April 12, 2009 you cant see muscle threw a plate body can you ?????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arborus 7 Posted April 12, 2009 (edited) you cant see muscle threw a plate body can you ?????? a plate body would still have to accommodate room for muscles. meaning it would have to be at least as large as that person's muscles. in fact some Curiass's are molded or formed into the shape of muscles. make him hold a large 2h axe Edited April 12, 2009 by Balmung Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Badass 0 Posted April 15, 2009 I think the main issue is how small you've made the chest area - I don't think they even make corsets that small. In the past, I don't think there were many warriors with chronic muscle wastage. Also, you don't have to do lineart before finishing every feature - the eyes can be done in colour and the fact that you have done eye line art consequently means that they are much larger than necessary. On another note, symmetrical pixels are easy to make look good, however, I wouldn't get into a habit of doing these. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

prediter45 0 Posted April 19, 2009 (edited) ok thats all pretty self explanatory on how to fix exept the feet im not sure how to fix those also do you like the basic design of the armour on the arms and legs heres what i have so far ok the light source is aimed at being directly in front of him he has no feet because i have no idea about how to make em look gight atm his weapon whatever i chose it to be is going to be stabbed into the ground and i may make a background Edited April 20, 2009 by prediter45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has no neck. why is there a gold outline on the gloves? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prediter45 0 Posted April 22, 2009 (edited) yea i dont know why i put the trim on the gloves to be honest lolz im redoing all the coloring iv changed the steel color to a black im also changing the light source to the top right and im also using dithering the boots i still need help making iv also added a neck what do you guys think about a broad sword on his back ok here is what it looks like so far Edited May 2, 2009 by prediter45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
