Action Hero - Genius

Action Hero entry by Don Allie

Hero Name: Genius

Description: Superboy!

A super hero you ask? To all of the little people, he is. The defender of the weak, and protector of the helpless. This kid might not have super powers, but he does have a brain full of knowledge. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!

He started learning in the whom. His mother would make him listen to classical music and read bedtime stories every night. Once he was born, his parents knew he was special. He learned to speak in one month. He could walk in only 6 months, and started to read right after that. By the time he was 5, he was out fighting crime. Keeping peace on the streets and showing bullies their place.

Beware, if this kid sees you doing something wrong, he will make sure you have learned YOUR leason.

Nice!

You're going to have to change your character's name, since Superboy is owned by DC. :)

If he were "Supper Boy"??

[SolidSnakexxx]

Cute looking design. Look forward to this one.

[Alliecat 08]

Looks like I didn't do my research. Seems like Superboy is taken. So his new name will be ...... Genius. Since he is sooo smart. ;) Hope this one isn't taken.

Well I haven't had much time this week to do much, but this is what I do have. Be patient, I will be working on it this weekend. :lol: baseMesh.jpg

[Alliecat 08]

I used Blender to make my base mesh. I like to use Blender cause it gives me more control of my polys.

Now I start to develope the form.

And start to add more divisions and shape.

Here I mask an area for the boots.

Then I start shaping the boot.

Hope I can get some more done tomorrow.

Looks like a good start, Alliecat 08. For the boots did you use mesh extract or simply sculpted off the mask?

[Alliecat 08]

SolidSnakexxx: I did do a mesh extract for the boots.

Here is an update of an idea for the pose my character will be in. Here you can see him reading on how to use self defense and using it on someone who just stolen someone's purse.

Looking good so far.. But I'm not so sure about the current hero pose......he looks a bit too static...I do however like the one you sketch...where he places his foot on the criminal.

[Alliecat 08]

This is my first time to post a video with Jing. I hope this works. I will be working on getting the other videos.
