I’m working on coming up with concepts for adding the Throat, Heart and Navel chakras to this shaman’s armor. Below is a quick drawing of one idea I have.

As with the horns on his helmet, these shoulder guards spew gaseous fire :). These horns straddle his shoulders and wrap around to his back. I might also add four more horns coming out of the four main chambers of the heart chakra. The final design will also be more organic, similar to the Battle Helm. Questions, comments and critiques are greatly appreciated :)

Thanks samar vijay, your work (Medusa’s Gaze and the Cowgirl especially) is exquisite. I dig your website too.

And thank you too The Cheshire Cat, I greatly appreciate the compliments. I'm glad you're back creating 3D artwork. The Petrol Shaman's upper body armor is now complete. It's adorned with the Throat, Heart and Navel chakras. Here are the first renders. Yes, it's a beast :). Higher resolution renders - [http://www.ericartman.com/visual_effects/body_armor_high_res.html](http://www.ericartman.com/visual_effects/body_armor_high_res.html) As with the Shaman's Battle Helm, this upper body armor has fire spewing horns :). Comments and Critiques are welcome. I was going to wait to post again until I had outfitted the Shaman with his armor, but duty calls and I'm going to have to take a few weeks away from this project.

Thanks abc12. You don’t have any images in your User Gallery. Do you have a website? I’m curious as to what ZBrush creations you’ve been concocting :).

Thanks SOLcreator. The concepts you’ve created for your Knoweapon superhero are fantastic.

I also really dig his back story. Sounds like you’ve got a whole movie or game already planned out for this character to exist in :).

I’m eager to see Knoneapon come to life.

#38

Thanks for the love EricArtman :). Ya, in a way I do have a lot planned for Knoweapon, and in another way I’m kinda just letting the energy flow through me and let it be the engine of creation. I honestly don’t know how the story ends yet… we’ll see :slight_smile: Stay tuned!

Hi EricArtman. Thank you so much for the nice comments on my sketchbook works! I visited your website: beautiful sculpting, I really appreciate and value real craftsmanship.
I was following this thread for some time, intruiged by the Petrol Shaman. The armor is fabulous: every piece is a fluid composition, from the biggest shape, to the smallest detail. :+1: ! Can’t wait for the next update, so, I’m subscribing. :+1: !

Unfortunately, I got a bit side tracked and I haven’t finished the Petrol Shaman.

I have however completely redesigned and revamped my personal website. ZBrush was used extensively to texture and paint all the graphical elements. The final version of the site was rendered in 3ds Max using Mental Ray. The design of the buttons was influenced by the ones on Bulgarov Vitaly's personal site. I hope you like the new (critiques and comments welcome) -

I’ve reduced the saturation a bit :wink: -
