cool! he certainly looks awsome, although I more get a feel of him being a knights captain and not a king. maybe it's just me but when I think of king I almost automatically think of a grey bearded man with a regal looking armor and a lions shield.

I can definitely see how he's not very kingly right now so i understand! Perhaps once I've fleshed out the concept a bit more he'll start looking the part

cool, looking forward to seeing it

Refined concept!! Onto modelling now that I have a feel of what I'm going for

RogerP 2016-12-17 16:25:24 UTC #6

Clean concept dude, what kind of weapon do you have in mind for him?

klautier 2016-12-18 03:11:16 UTC #7

Quick sword concepts to get a feel of what I want. Going to end up picking what i like from each and combining

Face Sculpt mostly done. Beard is fuller than originally intended and I need to make fixes. But it's mostly there!

majmufin 2016-12-18 10:00:22 UTC #9

nice, that is a clean base mesh, did you model it, is it a standardi n Zbrush or make it yourself?

klautier 2016-12-18 10:03:25 UTC #10

Thanks! I made it myself

Low poly armor base mesh WIP + Head bake test. Unsure if I want to go PBR or Handpainted for this

majmufin 2016-12-20 15:48:38 UTC #14

nice, what kind of era are you using for refrence on the armor?

fantasymaster 2016-12-20 19:54:13 UTC #15

Great stuff! Well sculpted face and beard. Looking forward to the body.

klautier 2016-12-20 23:07:26 UTC #16

Thanks guys! @majmufin i'm referencing Warcraft movie armor in general, so I guess whatever that is

alien_hand 2016-12-21 07:32:47 UTC #17

Hey man really digging the armour details dude

klautier 2016-12-27 13:45:10 UTC #18

Thanks to Christmas I haven't been able to do much but here's what I've done. Quick paint over on my progress. He doesn't look so old when i give him hair xD Still not sure how I want to detail is abdomen. May leave it blank as there will be a belt over part of it.

closeup on detail
