Action Hero Name: The Twister
Artist Name: Akira Masuda

The wind surrounds his body.
And, it becomes his weapon and protector.

It is output from his mechanical suit .
It can be controlled by his intention.
He can fly over the sky by using this wind.

Your concept sketch is not visible. Please edit your initial post and upload the sketch to ZBC. If you're linking from someplace else, that can create problems.

It's a good sketch and a perfect concept for a classic comic book superhero. It's also a big challenge to make it as a sculpt I guess. Good luck, I look forward to see this one modeled.

The base looks great, spacejiro. I do look forward to your next update :) Oh BTW, the thought just came into my mind.. the coloring reminds me of speed racer as well. Well done, mate.

Certainly,the coloring reminds me too of speed racer.
I think that my coloring received a large influence from Japanese animation.
for instance, Gundam and etc.

Looking good so far, spacejiro. are you having the suit and skin as the same subtool? (My suggestion would be to separate them..so you can apply different material on them) Other than that..you are rocking this twister out real well :tu:

According to me the legs are a bit more broad

Nice costume. My only crit is the scarf, or cape his costume has. That would seem to be a problem when he's got wind spinning all around him. It could get in his eyes, whip him in the face, or potentially strangle him if it got caught on something.

Beautiful work you're doing. I like it. One thing i noticed is the shoulders in the drawing are a little more relaxed but in the model the shoulders look a bit tense like he's shrugging upwards a bit. Maybe you can bring them down and out a bit like in the original comp?

Nicely designed character, and sketches.

coming along well, watch that anatomy in the forams and legs. otherwise your making good progess.

thank you for commment!!


SolidSnakexxx>Looking good so far, spacejiro. are you having the suit and skin as the same subtool? Surely, A suit and the skin are included in the same sub tool now.
Because the area that skin crops out is narrow, I think to divide it into the different material after shape did fix to some extent.



Webhead>That would seem to be a problem when he's got wind spinning all around him. It could get in his eyes, whip him in the face, or potentially strangle him if it got caught on something.If he is the hero who is tomfoolery, it is funny adversely and is very pleasant.
Unfortunately he is comparatively earnest character.
However, like a mantle of the BATMAN not coiling itself round the tire of the motorcycle, his scarf does not interfere with him.strangely.;)

I study it more anatomically to become nature and a cool pose more.

thank you everyone:D

Thank you !!

I made a posing in a 3D application for Mac called Cheetah3D.
However, it is unsuitable for the purpose of this contest.
So,I use the trancepose of ZBrush while taking these poses into account.

I was thinking about using another app for the posing but I'm starting to get a hang of the Transpose tool. It might be faster to do it in ZB.

Nice work.

ok i can tell im not gonna get an answer but heres the thing, im creating my own superhero which i started working on since late 07 and last year i settled on the name which happens to be the same as yours and it's not the same character or powers but the name works and i've got an impressive rogues gallery thought up and i plan to move forward with it, and i would just like to know if it's ok for you to do your thing and i to do my thing because what i've got is really really good, i've found that i have a gift for storytellign and creativity
