Azman - Jan/Feb
 

Im definately going to have a go at this challenge. Its my first go at a challenge but ive always wanted to enter and never had the time.

Im gonna have to think about what the character should be but il post up soon with my ideas.

Goodluck to everyone entering!
:beer:

Ok i think ive got an idea that im going to follow.

i was looking around some mythology stuff and found a lot of references to snakes and an image flashed in my head about a cross between humans and animals.

Im thinking of a half man, half snake like creature. A snakes head on a human character. But i want to see if i can modernise it a bit and make it a bit different.

Heres the initial model i made in maya, im going to work on it slightly in zbrush later for details.
The sections on his hands are going to be where its chains hang.

Still very basic at the moment but just starting to add more detail of the muscle structure.

HEY HEY long time no see!!!

good to see ur entering

nice idea although modernising might be hard

remem be cafeful with zbrush dont make the file size too big cos theres a 10mb fil limit


good luck man

Hey pbman i keeping an eye out on the file size so far. Ive managed to transfer it between Maya and Zbrush a couple of times and its still around 2mb so far.

This is the update so far. Its a bit more defined but a lot still needs to be done to make it more snake-like.

Heres one from the back of the character. I tried to get a snake pattern on the back but its not defined enough yet.

All comments welcome
Thanks

looks nice

nice cobra neck too!!

wat r u gonna do about hads though?

Heres another update to my character,
Ive put it in a basic pose so when i model the chains around it hopefully it might look like its trying to break free.

pbman - i almost forgot about the hands so i added them in aswell.

All comments welcome
Thanks

Heres another image from the side.

great start there.

I like the cobra look aswell.

Are you going for a more human than snake look for the upper body shape - if so I think it needs some more work (eg armpits),
if you going for a more snake form then it just needs to be toned down alittle.

dude that looks sick

the hands are nice they r nice with that slihtly roughened up look

that nose too its sweet.....

nice pose although i was wondering what it would look like with a slight twist at the hips?

cool idea Azman - this is looking very nice so far.:beer:

Hi guys

Thanks for the comments, Ive done some updates but im having a lot of trouble with my internet connection at the moment but il update soon.

tweetytunes - im hoping to get a cross between snake and human for the body so im definately going to add some more details. So i think il tone down some areas and add to the human sections.

pbman- i might rotate the hips more to make it look more dramatic.

Thanks for all the comments

More updates soon.
