ART WAR | 3D I Forest Protector I Kmat

kmat 2017-01-20 15:20:38 UTC #1

Hello, I would like to share some concepts of my character. Generally I got inspired by my wooden ceiling in the room, then the creation evolved while I was drawing on this photo.

My character is a protector of the forest, that he is also made from. Magic and nature make him live and his main task is to protect the lifes of his land. He bares on his body many signs of fight (like arrows and scratches). It's a fast creature with the ability to shortly predict time thanks to his 3rd eye (for example what part of his land will be attacked). He is a symbol of hope and a heart of the forest that he protects. It's a kind, proud creature, but also very dangerous for the ennemies.

FINAL Update:

I will share some progress with you guys, I'm still working on it, I don't have all the elements yet. I want to put on this character some mashrooms, outstanding sticks, fibermesh of grass or something like that and a wooden pieces of armor + all the details

Actually, I'm wondering about the mask of this guy.
I have 2 versions and I'm not sure if to make him more passive (mask1) or more agressive (mask2)....

Okay, so I was working a lot on his armor. I changed the idea of it, also I will add some wood protections on his legs. Work continues!

Today I added wooden protections + ropes around them. Later I Zremeshed everything and I will be putting details on my model so it will start to look more like a final piece, for now it was all about elements and shapes (Don't look yet at his feet - terrible xD)

List to do and what is already done:

Now the body is longer and his feet and hands are bigger. Tomorrow I will finish the armor + again add the grass since when I changed his anathomy I had to also adapt all the elements :C. Anyway, the next on the list is the head and then the bird house, birds and weapon and the scull on his shoulder will be changed to 3 little humanoid ones.

My computer don't allow me to go higher with points in Zbrush so for the face it has to be enough. Now I need to focus on the armor, weapon and bird and rethink the idea of the bird house on his chest. I liked it at the beginning but now it feels like it's too much, I don't really know what to think so I just continue and check after. I made a big mistake at the beginning to not make a really solid concept so now I get the results

I'm working on his armor now so I will share progress of everything else:
