Street fighters Akuma wip

[iorywx]

Hi Dark-Anim,

Good idea, I actually just saw couple screeshots of Ryu from street fighter 4 with new costumes, and his new pants have a very large hole and I think I will make another version of akuma’s clothing similar to that.

You could also maybe put a few holes in his pants or shirt to make it look like he just got out of a rough battle. That would at least expose some of the hidden detail that lies beneath his clothing.

Ha! thanks, I think him having ripped clothing would also make him look tougher. I mean we could compare him to Goku, and he looks great with torn clothing like in THIS picture. Good luck, can’t wait to see the new clothing .

So tonight I was thinking about akuma’s face. i made the face based on the akuma face from sf3 3rd strike and the more I look at that the more I think i need to do some test with expressions. So I spend couple hours and made another expression based on a sketch by Ikeno, the art director and designer of SF4. I wasn’t shooting for 100% likeness on either one, just about the feel. And I think I need to work on his mouth shape more to get that kind feel. Here is the screenshot, what you guys think?

Looks sweet!

Maybe make the mouth a little more “pouty” and raise the outside corners of the eyes.

That should make him look more sinister.

Excellent work.

Sweet work. I like it. Just some crits: Are you going for an older Akuma? Because the wrinkles are making him look aged. Maybe you can tone down the wrinkles and create distinct hard edges that define the bone/muscle structure on the face. Right now I can’t tell what’s muscle/bone, and what’s wrinkle/veins. Also, it seems like he may have too much cheekbone . That can make him look old as well…Again, that may be the look you’re going for. Just nitpicking, looking great man

hi silkori,

I need to work on the mouth and jaw more for sure. I did raise the outside corner a bit, maybe not enough. I will look into it tonight.

I think you are right with the wrinkle part. I should work on the major definition of the face and smooth out some unnecessary wrinkles for sure.

Cool sculpt!
I would personnaly make the nose edges and forehead sharper, like, more pinched so the edges come out more clearly. Eyes look a bit too small to me respect to the concept. Also the whole face looks too long (on the Y axis) and tip of the chine could me smaller.

Keep it up, thats definitly very good stuff!
