Ludwik is a warrior which can control black magic infused crystals. He's a target of knights and head hunters because he has caused a lot of destruction. Here's the Final Result

I came up with some silhouettes with somewhat sharp aggressive shapes. I probably will do some more of these and combine the aspects of each sketch

Tesat 2017-12-26 19:08:24 UTC #4

I combined some aspects that I like in one silhouette and redesigned it so probably I'm going to roll with #6

If you are serching for brainstorming ideas, try to take some of those sketches and painting in the top with irregular brushes to create unexpected shapes. Maybe it will inspire you to find new designs

Thank you for your advice, this is my first time designing a character so I would like to see more critiques on my future work, good luck!

I wasn't really sure to go with silhouette #6 so I came up with 4 new ones. However can't decide between #6 and #9, any thoughts?

racnos 2017-12-27 20:08:23 UTC #9

I like where the 6 is going! you can make a quick sketch of the 9 and compare if you want. Also i recomend you to serch armor photos to use as reference for the helm and the bots design! Im sure you will improve them!

Tesat 2017-12-27 20:14:40 UTC #10

Thanks! I didn't put much time in the helm and boots as you can tell but I'm kinda stuck on #6 so I'm gonna stick with #9 for a while to free my mind from it

Tesat 2017-12-28 23:21:50 UTC #11

I will most likely change the title because I decided to go on with # 9 and something else came to me. Here's my new references

Tesat 2017-12-29 00:11:46 UTC #12

I'm currently trying to design #9's armor, will post soon

I like the weapon in 6, could fit great with the heavy armor. If you stuck in designing a character, figure out at first what kind of hero he/she could be. Some references are great to keep the focus ^^ Also you could make some parts really big, like an enormous large weapon.

Thx for the advice! I actually have something in mind and prepared a line drawing ( not a fancy one) with flat colors but I have to figure out one little thing before I post it. I could really use a critique on that one one if you're willing to help

I like #9, but the weapon in #1 is super cool. I like the floating bits; maybe you could implement something like that for your hero.

evehartman 2017-12-31 12:46:40 UTC #16

Love that you are going with design #9 ! Along with your moodboard, I suspect that is going to be one awesome warrior. Keep us posted!

Tesat 2017-12-31 17:15:00 UTC #17

I haven't thought of the weapon yet but yeah #1's weapon would be cool

Tesat 2017-12-31 17:17:56 UTC #18

I will post my character with flat colors soon, I was kinda busy with something else but now it's time to go to War

Tesat 2017-12-31 23:12:32 UTC #19

Here's my character with flat colors, I might change them because I lot of people used Dark color with yellow accent. I'm not gonna render this one it was just the design. Should I put a face on this or just glowy eyes to make it look mysterious?

I can really use a critique

Tesat 2018-01-01 18:12:47 UTC #20

Here are some different accent and crystal colors I can use for now. What do you guys think about it?

giancarlobarduzzi 2018-01-01 23:19:59 UTC #21

this is looking so cool, i like the one with purple crystals so much, i will keep an eye on your progress!

2 all the way
