Made a quick sketch sculpt block out tonight.

Concept:
( Colors, costume, pattern, etc still undecided. )

Originally I wanted to give her 6 arms, but I'm afraid it might resemble the Marvel character Spiral too much, so I'm going with 4 and 2 tentacle-like claws ( used mainly for her hypnotize/charming power )

I'll add more text here once I've getting further along with the concept.
Thanks for watching!

Got some free time at work today, so I thought that I would post a small update.

Sculpting out the head along side the helmet, and trying to figure out what design/concept match her best.
I have to keep in mind she is a hero so the design have to express that properly.

I am a little more unsure with the costume, still haven't thought out a cool design that will fit her. I'll need some time figuring the design out.

I love the direction you are going with this!

good idea

I've been kind of stuck on the costume design and spend too much time on been indecisive. So I've jumped to the head, helmet and hair parts for now.

Here is the update so far, eyebrow and eyelashes are just placeholder for now, once I get onto the hair part I'll fix those as well.

Hope you like it.

@Gil_Ascher @sedat
Thanks for the comments, always appreciate it ( even if I forget to reply )

I would go into a different direction. Make her more like a godess. I would look at some Final Fantasy designs and characters. Excited to see how you progress though.

Liked the face!

Lastest update for the head, helmet and hair.

The back hair is just the base mesh with a alpha map, I'll make a proper planer mesh hair later on like I've done with the front hair.
But I'll jump back to the costume design from now on, and finish up the hair and hair once the body have been fully taken care off.

Hope you guys like it!

@matteo Well the whole idea ( for me at least ) is to make a superhero, so I'll stick with that but thanks for the suggestion

@zorg thanks!

So, I'm finally back after 3 weeks away from the computer due to christmas, new year, and sickness
But I'll give it my best the next couple of days and have it finished by the deadline!

I have been playing around with a lot of different color schemes, in the end I settled on matching the blue spiders colors as much as I could.

I also did some facial morph targeting, which plays really nicely in toolbag, so hopefully I'll have some extra time to set it up for the final toolbag viewer version.

So this is where I am so far, I'll have to spend the weekend on creating a better pose, background elements, optimizing the skinning and textures, and then finally compositing
The total tri count is around 35k, currently using a 2k map for the body.
I will bump that up to a 4k texture for the final image for some nice details.

Anyways, sorry for the long period of silence.
Thanks for reading/watching!
