Scene: strange world

Hey guysuser added image

I started on a new project.

This scene will have 4 characters, a man and woman, and the others i'm still working on ideas, which are alien like or monsters. This scene take place in a strange world, which will be an outdoor scenery.

The idea of what i'll try to setup is the guy (man) or hero is saving the female from these alien like monsters (two of them).

I think this is going to take a week or two to complete. This is going to be fun!

Well heres my first character the hero.

The head, which I have more to do on:

Thanks for your reply metallicjet66user added image or is it Metallica?user added image

The textureing and better lighting setup will come after all the modeling is done. I still have 3 more characters to do, which are female and two alien monsters. Then I have to build a scene of nature, you know trees, plants etc, etc but in a strange world.

I'm even thinking about building a vehicle of some type, which the hero jumps out to save the woman from alien as they are attacking her.

Well i'm working on the female now user added image

I'll have updates soon
