Demon Race: Male

**nanyacura** · January 9th, 2006, 07:56 PM

Hey all.

I recently got this done. It's a male version for a demon race in-the-works for an online RPG. I was told to change a few things (not make them look so undead, etc), but this was the first version.

Close ups (somewhat):

Looking forward to hearing your opinions

Take care all.

I LIKE the "undead" aspects of your design (especially for a necromancer). Why are your clients protesting? The costuming is great--lots of fun.

I like the design too, I think it has a lot of potential, but there is a lot to be desired in terms of anatomy...it's a bit off, and that hurts the image. I also think the black makes the image look flat...a little detail (from that red light) in the black of the clothing would go a long way to rounding out the form. Also, the face could use more work in my opinion.

It just needs a little extra lovin', that's all

They did tell me I had full swing of the race and how they looked, but instead they were thinking less undead and more "humane" I suppose. At any rate, I always find undead to be much more fun ;D
Thanks!

I'm a little irritated with the black at the moment, too. When I go back to it I'll definitely be fixing it.
Could you elaborate a little more on the anatomy potion so I know what it is that's wrong? Thanks

Wow! I love the hands, the costume and colors. I think the head sits a bit funny with the front-facing dude. I think an elongated neck done with the same care as you did the hands would be cool.

He needs a skeleton. Right now he looks like he's made out of rubber.

some cool ideas, but overall just looks really flat. The mouth closeup to the right of the pose leaves alot to be desired as well.

like i said, some cool ideas, but needs some more attention to make it look more professional

thanks for sharing

Hm. Then I suppose trying to make a curved pose didn't end up so well. I'm used to stylizing a lot. Perhaps that's the flaw.

Yeah I've become quite aware of the flat look. Once I get working on it again I'll be trying to fix that. Thank you.
