Looking awesome!! I´m joining this year yeah, trying to find time and have some fun!
incredible! it is looking really good
My God! I love those muscles (especially the arm ones).
They are so amazing that only the arm could be the winner of the contest.
@JoseTijerin haha, thank you for the kind compliment. I shall submit just the arms now after posing them attacking. ^^
finally back from my xmax holidays, and am back to work.
did some quick fingers which are currently more orangutan in length, but I think I'll shorten them to be chimp length as they feel too long.
Sculpted a creepy smiling mask I might use for the shoulder. tempted to give him a banana moustache.. so we'll see how that turns out tomorrow.
going to start modeling some assets tomorrow as well to bring in to sculpt. added horns.
i did some design sketches, and scoured pinterest for inspiration and ended up coming up with some pretty interesting ideas, so I'm excited to block them all in and get them in there to see how they work together.
quick update. blocking assets. trying to decide if he needs a hat, or is better off with direct lighting on his skull/ eventual hair. so far im feeling the no-hat look.
alright finished some quick block ins. decided I'm going to be giving him a kanabō. because there's nothing "like giving a kanabō to an oni". that, and it's still kind of staff-like without being a staff... He's also got a bit of a samurai vibe.. so some place-holder katanas are there for the moment.
Thoughts on the hat on/vs off? What's everyone's preference, as I can't decide.
I kinda like the hat on version. Gives him this mysterious aura like he is an wandering warrior of some kind.
K I know I'm biased, but I'm loving his backpack... I want one in real life please.
hereby dubbed the "chunky monkey pouch" Every pocket is most likely filled with an assortment of bananas. @malcom alrighty thanks. I think I agree... now it's just a matter of making it work with his horns. I think I'll also have to pose him with his head angled upwards so that the light hits it. 
alrighty, back to zbrush and into marvelous
done for the day. added a bunch of assets, polished some designs. thought I'd be back in Zbrush today, but ended up pushing some shapes a lot more. I'll finish up the sandals quick tomorrow, then jump back to Z to finish up the arm/feet anatomy, add hair/fur finally, adjust horn length, and possible sculpt a whole new mask for his belly, because I just don't like how the tengu mask turned out. busy day ahead! hope you like his direction.
This looks really dope. I want the jacket and the hat so I can be mysterious and badass. Looking forward to the next few adjustments.
