Just Some Small Notes



Just Some Small Notes. Oh I forgot to add in different spots of the vest there will be tight stretch wrinkles such as around the Pectorals, Trapeze, and the Anterior area.

Nick's New Update 2



Hello world, here is a update of Nickolai's vest. I decided to go with a organic leather stitch feel for the vest portion. and for the neck brace and shoulder pad portion I decided to go with a armored metal plate feel for those portions.

The stitches were created in photo shop on a gray scale to make alphas. As always I am still tweaking. I have tweaks to do around the pectoral's and abdominal area of the vest. Be sure to tell me what you think.

peace

Nick's New Update










O.k. here is Nickolai's leg update I am trying to figure out how I am going to do his boots. The only problem is i am trying to figure out if I want to do shoes or boot.

Hmmmmm.......

I think boots would be better, after all he is a soldier. I still have tweaks to do to the hands, feet and legs, but I just wanted to show of the progress. I also Notice how he looks like Kratos.

lol.

New Nickolai Update.


Here is a quick Nickolai update and if you notice his face and chin is a little longer to make him look a little younger. I want him to feel and look younger,but not to young. After all he is in his 40's. I still have tweaks to do but this will do for to night. I gotta draw right now. good night.

Another face update.



Here is another face update. I am nearly done with the head I just gotta work on the ears a little more and tweak things here and there. Please leave me comments.

PICTURE PERFECT, SAY CHEES


Here is a work in progress. It's the start of Nickolai's head I decided to start with the head and face for a personality feel of this character.

Z Brushed Nickolai


This is just a test to get me back in the grove of z brush. there will probable be more of these for practice. Just gotta get a understanding of what tools are good for what for different sections of the character.

Nickolai Update 6/Vest



Here is the updated copy of Nickolai in his updated vest form. the vest is still under construction at the moment but I wanted to show of the progress on it. Its going good so far and with the brace on the vest but at the moment I am trying to decide if I want to shorten or keep it at the same height. I was even thinking of making it taller above the nose a bit.

New Character Next Model update 5


Here is the Nickolai 3D update, with this character I had to go back and fix the thighs and the torso a bit. I had to fix the Latissimus muscle abit fro the front a bit to make the character more realistic. At this current state I am working on the neck brace and vest.

Again this is practice pic to get me in the mood of coloring art work. Expect more of these. along with this pic is Nickolai 2d Head sketch. You may notice that he looks a little like superman, but that come from reading and borrowing my brother comics.

Ruff drape i mean draft


This is a ruff draft of how i want my character to look. The drape will wrap around Nick like so. The only difference will be the neck brace will be under the drape and the drape will wrap around it. Also it will be shredded to give the indication of a battle soldier who roams the world. this here is a Clint Eastwood movie cap from Man With No Name.
