Diabolos

Wow thanks everyone, for the many positive comments and stars this time around! Next time i’ll start with the head I guess :lol:

Marsyas : Thanks, for my part. Rest of the credit must go to Squaresoft’s designers. This is just my take on their already solid designs.

Dinky777 : Yeah, so far only played Bioshock on it. Some friends say I’m wasting this machine by not playing games on it, I say Zbrush gives it plenty to do.

Lil’sister : Always nice to hear your support bud :wink:

animastur : I sure hope so! Quick polypaint tests have been so-so… Working with a black and red palette will prove quite a challenge to keep detailing visible, and shapes easy to read… Hope I don’t fail the texture horribly, especially since it’s my job. :o

Glad you guys are liking it so far!

Hey Pierre, it’s really looking good man :+1: Nice details

Keep the updates coming :wink:

Hey so it’s been a long time, but the body/head parts can finally be called something along the lines of ‘finished’. The horns have been done, as well as the arms, hands, tail… Let’s try a nifty gif turnaround this time, hope it works Might take a bit to load.

Here’s some headshots. Keeping with the spirals theme, i put some ears integrated into the base of his horns. You need big ears when you have no eyes I guess.

And couldn’t resist jumping to polypaint on the head, although i should be tearing myself away from that now to model the kind-of-important wings first!

Well that’s it for now, hope you like how it’s going.

Piz : Thanks again
Gookle : Thanks, i hope so.
Devijinn : Good to see FF fans are feeling this piece. Thx :slight_smile:

And now a quick and dirty concept sketch for the wing design. Some areas are still looking off to me so definitely tweaks and additions will hapen as i start to model it out.

Also, I hapened to notice my last post got mysteriousy edited somehow. Like the embeded animated gif became a link instead etc… Could the admin that might have done that plz send me a PM about what was wrong with it, so i know for next time?

Fantastic! I wish I could get nice clean edges like that on my models.

Very good idea for the wing :+1:

Oh my… wings too? Awesome!! That head is really extreme, fit’s great with the body. This is gonna be some thing when it’s done (it is already).
Keep posting Art-machine! :+1: :+1: :+1:

Woops totally forgot to update! Well here you go, wingy goodness. Now i can focus on the texture.

awesome:+1: 5of5

one little thing: IMHO the 2 small horns on the forehead do look a bit tiny as if they would break on 1.st occasion. also the flow of the lines is disturbed by them, id skipp them personally.

oh, hell yeah!!!
any chance to buy a print of that when it’s done??
reminds me of the airship in advent children :smiley:
FRIGGIN DOPE!!

Great job Pierre!!! 5 stars from me buddy :+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:

i agree … really very good … 5 stars from me too. :+1:

That’s bad ass!

Waw, really cool…:+1: :+1:
Its one of the rare sculpt I’ve seen that keepts its detailing after being textured…
Cant wait to see thew progres…

i personaly lovee swirls. this is cool and ff advent children inspired but not so much so. you make this design your own and it ROCKS. great, crisp details (how do you do that? i get really blobby stuff)

keep it up!
