Thanks a lot for kind words)

[eggo]

Some progress with lance. I'll add later cloth stripes on top as a symbol of Russian flag (white, blue and red).

[eggo]

Ok.. Shield done. next step is to make a lot of lowpoly stuff. Wish me luck there)))

[VJim]

Really amazing details.. did you design the details while you sculpt or before sculpt? looks really cool!!

[karapils]

Great character! Really liking your progress so far!
Something i noticed however: you have crosses on your character's outfit. The rules say "No political or religious symbols"; i dont know if they gonna count it as religious symbol or not, but maybe it will be a good idea to check it with the moderators or something, just to be sure.

[eggo]

@VJim Thanks a lot! I'm always use a lot of references and some really draft sketches such as you can see at the beginning of this WIP. Some stuff are coming while starting to sculpt too for sure... It's really differs on Challenges like this one from working from sketch at work and a lot of design just coming while sculpting.
@karapils Glad you like it!
Nice finding about some symbols... I'm sure that a lot of cultures and countries have so much deep roots associated with religion that couldn't be ignored actually. Same things happens with political symbols and especially if country have a very long history.. Actually there're a lot of amazing WIPs at 3D and 2D category with a lot of religious or semi-religious or political symbols are used.
I'm also using non-canon religious crosses or symbols so it shouldn't be a problem actually. Can't find any of them here on ref for example:

I think I saw a couple of moderators here at my WIP and none of them said anything about it.
@malcom @cedricgo can you help us on this question please?

[karapils]

i mean, i am not hating on the cross. just thought i would mention it just in case. feel free to ignore.
you dont need to prove me anything or whatever. it's not like i was saying "dont use crosses, that's religious symbols, that's against the rules"; i suggested to check it with moderators to be sure that everything's alright. but if you think everything's alright, then there is no need to check with the moderators.
again, was just a friendly suggestion; wasnt hating on your art or anything.

[malcom]

I think your good to go. I'll go double confirm with the team but it seems like everything is good to go.
Edit: I check with the rest of the mods. You should be good to go.

[eggo]

@karapils Oh nono) Thanks for pointing out on it - may be it'll be helpful to other participants if they have same question) So no worry - thanks indeed)
@malcom Thanks for clarification!

[eggo]

OK! Most of lowpoly done for now but still need to fix a bit some stuff. Now I need some time to UV all this stuff so will finish it in a day or two i think...

[derevcov55]

Добрый день. Не подскажешь как ты делал ретопологию? Это авто или все ручками. Да и в какой программе. (для меня это просто немного больная тема =) буду очень благодарен за пояснение) .

Good day. Can you tell me how you did the retopology? This is an auto or all handles. And in what program. (for me this is just a bit of a sore subject =)).

[eggo]

@derevcov55
Привет) Все ручками и в топогане, самый минимум остального правил в Cinema4D.
Hey! All topology done by hands at Topogun with some minor tweaks done at Cinema4D.

[eggo]

So I've made UVs for most of the stuff and also baked it.
Next is to finish: hairs, eyes & mouth.

[VJim]

looks great as always. Congrats!

[eggo]

@VJim Thanks!
