Action Hero - Darklight

[Ustos]

Hero name - Mark Elliens

Story;

1980.
In the beginning he was only a man who want to live. Everybody want to live…but some of them want
to live good. With a usual work he couldn’t earn necessary money for his plans. Money – the beginning of human’s flaws, they can do everything. And can force everybody. Mark Elliens was not an exclusion. He was to do things which he really want to forget. Man, who paid him money, was Tomas Grabovsky, one of the leader of mafia. So as you can understand beating out money, murder and lying weren’t unusual for him.
The fate was cruelly with him. Wrong company, wrong time, and as it always end, mafia remove him.
“Very short history” you may think. Was it really end? Of course it was, but was one problem. His plans.
He has a dying child and money were need to make an operation and because of that he had to work for Mr. Tomas.
Far in the sky archangel Gabriel saw his suffering, and when Mark was died he didn’t want him to hit into the Hell. Archangel returned him back to our World to make justice. He presented him a great power for this… From this time everyone call this man Darklight.
Who know, what he will do now?…
Someone called him a murder; others don’t want to believe this story. And a little part of people know him as a Hero.

LOL…Sry…I’m not a writer and sry for my English.. =)) I’m Russian…….

Cool looking concept design. I though a man form the 1980s would look more disco like..

At first I thought you may have posted the wrong year..like 1800s because the costume may fit more in that era. But this could work out nicely. Looking forward to your next update.

[Ustos]

looking good so far man. some crits i would say that you need to work on is that the waist is a little wide for the stature of the model and two try not to make it too hunched over like a hunchback. overall you are doing a really good job. keep it up.:D

[SolidSnakexxx]

So far so good for the base ZSphere construct and the base mesh. You are off to a solid start.. Let's see some more of the ZBrush magic :cool:

Hey nice name for your character!
Looking pretty good so far. The overall proportions look quite good, maybe the head could be a bit smaller to make him seem taller.

Cheerio Chris

Hey Ustos, good work so far, you are really getting this guy blocked in.
I really like your concept.
A few cirts
I would have a look at how the torso is connecting to the legs.
Also I would say the overall proportions could use a little tweaking. I would recommend getting your references out and then using the move brush and transpose tools on a low sub d level to tweak them a bit more until he starts to feel a bit more cohesive.
Hope that helps
Looking forward to updates!

nice stuff. It looks like the pecs are a bit too large. I really like the idea.

[Ustos]

2 fluxist8070 it is not a pecs :D ... there his armor (plastron), i didn't detail it yet. I make it together with the body.
Then i will detach it and make subtool from it.

2 Harmonic thk u... i see this trouble.

Hey Ustos, nice work on his boots so far. I am liking the details you have added. I think the overall shape and silhouette of the boot could use some work.

[SolidSnakexxx]

I some how missed the last few updates of yours. Cool updates there. I think you can't blend material but you can paint different material on one object...but it will have the jagged line...and unable to blend like colors.

[Ustos]

Guys, i need help.
I have already posted about it new thread, but there are no answers. :cry:
I installed TransePose Master, but it doesn't working... :o with my model.
Everything allright with others, but my current model, after posing intermediate mesh and clicking TPose-TSub, doesn't change at all............

I have to save intermediate meshPose and then load my current tool. Then
load pose from disk... after that my model change, probably or probably not...
