Hello everyone!
well in this thread, i will be uploading my progress and process for my proyect, hope you like it.

ok, so my champion will be Project: Susan-00, fighting for team Sci-Fi, she will be an experimental technologicaly enhanced Soldier/Samurai who has been asign a powerfull mecha type levitating armor, obviously based on Susanoo no mikoto

so here is my ideaboard to check more less the style i am thinking about.

so that will be all for now and, Good Luck everyone!

ok so i'been working on the idea, and the image that came to my head when i first tought about it was something like this quick sketch

after that i proceed to make a cleaner look of the armor, to have a better idea of the amount of detail i would like to use for the mecha and ended up with this

i like where this is going, i dont know if any of you guys like the idea, i guess i am going to keep working on her, the suit, it still looks to simple

love where you are going with this. My one critique for the armor right now is to change up the proportions a bit. The 1st version( green sketch) was going in the right direction with the legs being slight longer then the torso as that is how it would be proportionally, but they were way to fragile to hold up the upper half. Now I feel it is vise versa with this most updated sketch. even though it is a mech, it should have somewhat "believable" anatomy, especially as a mech suit and not just a human-less mech. Plus, this will add more to the samurai aesthetic since you want it to most likely read swift and powerful rather then bulky and powerful. But if you choose not to update it, I think it could still work in your favor. Otherwise I love where this is going and I can't wait to see where you take it :smiley:

yeah i dont really plan those to be the final proportions, i just needed a little bit more detail to see where this was going, actualy i made the legs, lower just to be able to sketch the detail under the floating part of her boot, all the armor will be levitating arround her.

i actualy think i made the second armor too big, i will have to play with the scales when i model it :smiley: thanks for your feedback!.

so i work some more, now directly on her clothes or suit... armor?
here is the concept of her, with some more color, i didnt want to work on too much rendering of the materials in this concept because i would like to check what works better directly over the model, i have some ideas, but i want to test them later, for now this is more less like the design of her clothes/suit/armor and lay out of the colors, i now it looks kind of saturated and to bright but like i said is just a layout. i will play more with the tones on the model itself.

so yeah that is all for now, i guess i will soon start modeling.

Oh my... that's a nice mecha concept. Looking forward to it.

18 days later

ok its been a long time, but just had a lot of work but here is a little update

so i had to make a female base mesh, an then sculpt it on zbrush


used an extract for the hair and made a quick sculpt it for reference.


and then stylized her face and paint it losely. and that is the current verison, im about to start the suit and armor. and hopefuly after having the base for those, i will actualy model the mecha parts hehehehe... lots of stuff XD

aww man... this idea is so cool!!! yea!! team big robots kick ass!! haha XD
really liking the concept, how do u make susanoo from naruto better? make it a mech, oh baby haha cant wait to see where this goes!!
