Hey,
I'm a game art student and this seems like a great learning experience. since this will be my second character model ever, it's time to get good in 75 days.
I have taken the fantasy side in this war but I'm gonna work in some subtle sci-fi influence in my character.
My initial idea is to make a more technical, cunning magic user. Maybe something recon related. I'll be working out the concept this week.
Very stoked to see everyone's progress and results.
Good luck.
