Action Hero-Mjolnir

Hero- Mjolnir

Artist: James Rose

Powers: powerful hammer,God like strength,speed,and agility

Mjolnir used to be God like, but he died long ago. Now his old enemies have returned. The ice giants that he once vanguished only slumbered. They have awoken and take their vengence out on the things he protected. The earth lay tattered and frozen.

Mankind is fading away. They resort to one last effort:bringing a dead god back to life. Mjolnir's hammer was discovered beneath the surface of the of the earth. On the handle lay the bloody remnents of the God. Through cloning, Mjolner was born again,but will Mjolnir's hammer exept this imitation and can this resurrected God fight back and destroy the ice giants that stand in humanities way?

You propably know this, but Mjolnir is the name of Thor´s hammer.
Strange to hear about him as a hero with a hammer of his own.

Nice character though I believe, looking forward to seeing more.

wohoo! what an entry! grate concept. you really nailed that pose. im looking forward to see him in zbrush!

btw: i would recommend you to change your topic to
Action Hero - Mjolnir befor the admis are deleting that thread!

[SolidSnakexxx]

Cool entry I like how you design the entire statue..with him fighting his enemy. Very cool :cool:

[goldo_O]

This is a really cool base you have here :) Best of luck!

[antisymmetry]

Thanks praxxis, P'etur, gordon-v,SolidSnakexxx, and goldo_O. This will be my first ZbrushCentral contest. I hope it all goes smoothly. I gave him the name Mjoclnir because I felt that in a way the hammer gave him back his life, so in turn he sort of becomes a part of it.

[antisymmetry]

I am not sure what's going on with ZbrushCentral, but I posted reply that never showed on the thread. Any how, I want to think all of you for your kind replies. I am going to wait and see if my other reply materializes from the ether before I write anything else.

I like the concept art with the cape. I bet u can do alot of fun things with the cape.

[SolidSnakexxx]

Neat progress...The more I look at the statue design, the more I like it...this one's going to be cool, man.

[antisymmetry]

Thanks every body. Thanks luis2008,snoopalu, and SolidSnakexxx. I'm thinking that cape and detail will add some drama to the sculpt.
