A hero imbued with the power of gravity field control - he can use the gravity field for high levels of speed, overwhelming power or self protection. His armor helps him channel the gravity in the direction of his choice

Here's the first round of concepts more concept lines coming tomorrow!

[zuriel3]

oops forgot these - also more of these coming tomorrow!

[mr_dessin]

A lot of these seems interesting ^^
Also the last ones with very big armor/mecha parts !

Welcome and good luck !

[zuriel3]

thanks man i appreciate it!

[zuriel3]

Next silh. update along with line work for the favorites!

[mr_dessin]

The one on the bottom left corner (first batch) was looking very promising and easy to understand (with directionnal arrow on his arms, which is important for your design I suppose ?).
Except for the triangle shape on middle chest, a bit too much superman reminder maybe ? ^^
Why not two opposite arrows or something ?

Casual ones (shirt etc) could be nice as well...good luck choosing again xD

[zuriel3]

thanks man i appreciate the feedback!

[zuriel3]

here is the next batch of stuff! more to come as usual! Still working the iterations but it think i found a promising direction for what I am trying to achieve. Still working to convey the gravity power a little more - another concept mood piece is probably in order to convey it properly. I also may try glowing blue / purple hair.

heres the update: picked a path to go down! now onward! meet RHO. (pronounced Row)

[mr_dessin]

Wow it is getting super interesting !!!
Although, that's maybe just me, but I have the feeling of a villain now.
Mostly because of purple/dark purple...meaning death in Asia (I know we are sure not all from Asia - me neither...and I just found this article and I'm wrong more or less haha https://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2012/06/color-and-cultural-design-considerations/
Very interesting to read ^^ (but you probably already know some of these explanations)).

Do you think arrows on his pants will cluttered too much on the design ?
Anyways I really enjoy how deep you go with this character !
Can't wait to see the illustration : D

[zuriel3]

thanks! and ill give the arrow a try i tried it on earlier ones but didnt find one that I like. I may give it another go!

[zuriel3]

Action Sheet for just a few of Rho's abilities

[zuriel3]

stuff that didnt make the action sheet.

[mr_dessin]

Really cool !
We can feel the super mega strength into the last one power : O
Really interesting these gravity rings too (for fun illustration) ^^

Also...kamehameha for the last one : D (but it sure is looking nice ^^)

[zuriel3]

haah thanks and yeah i wanted a gravity blast but it was out of place and dont have enough time to work it out so ill come back.....someday lol onto the illustration (oh and the back view)!

I like how you implemented those downward facing arrows as a design motif for his gravity powers. I think it's difficult to imply such an abstract power within his costume design but you managed to pull it off with an interesting solution! I also dig the 'western comic book hero' feel for this one. Really cool stuff!

[MarcinKulesza]

Cool process so far. I like the result, but maybe you can reconsider the concept with white hair? Now his skin and suit is kind of blending together, the hair would be a nice contrast to it.

[sani]

He's got a bit of a animated TV series hero vibe to him. I'm also really feeling that action sheet. The arrows pointing down is a nice touch to reinforce the idea that his powers are gravity based.

Good work so far!

[mr_dessin]

You're welcome and good luck for the finishes !!!!
