Went thru some serious design concepting stage lately, pushing it between triangle - samurai, sci-fi, giger.
Also modeled up test dummy and rigged it up for a test pose. So far design is working with some minor "bugs" like sholder movement issue, etc.

Looking back to concept-A (Hybrid) and concept-B (more samurai like) I came to conclusion, that for concept-C (more robotic) there is no time left, and I kind of like concept-B, as it have robotic features in it too.

From now on I will proceed with concept-B, that's my final decision.
Let's move to Zbrush for next phase...

Making some progress.
As I do hardsurface in Zbrush for the first time, laying out big forms and also sketching in rough smaller details for complete look and feeling of proprotions. Guess this week is the final stage of major tweaks in design before I go into next phase with color etc.

So far, character's desing pros&cons:
Pros:
- Siluethe is in its final state
- Proportions are in its final state
- Detail elements are +/- ok

Cons:
- Shouder detailing is not finished
- Arm protecting armor piece is not finished
- Hips and knees are not finished
- Head armor with headset piece is still arguable
- Still need to flesh out sci-fi katana

Ps. Time for retopo this beauty and get into serious detailing and polishing stuff.


Dropped some quick mesh to test poses (sorry for default(broken) skinning, good one will be made on final mesh which is in progress). So, which do You like guys?

Hi everyone. Here is my Final.
Olympia is a sci-fi samurai. When Xenomorph threat is at large, this special force cosmic
sanitarian lady will sanitize the problem with pleasure'n'ease. Frugality, loyalty, martial arts mastery, and honor until death - this is "the way" of her moral values, which she cultivate among the galaxies.
