The Balance of Power

[[attach=88728]balance-sm.jpg[/attach]]balance-sm.jpg

Something I started tongiht as sort of a 50 minute anidote to what I’ve been working on this week. I’ve came to the conclusion I must be certifiable as after a loooong week what the first thing I do when I have some time for ‘me’?..lol yep another sculpt.

Its one of my ‘quick anatomy self tests’ I do from time to time without refs to see how I’m improving. This time I wanted to do something with some subtle asymetry. Hopefully I’ll get time to complete it soon-ish.

PS Kudos to the person who spots where the title comes from. :wink:

looks pretty good, but i am not really feeling the weight on his arms. it doesnt feel like he is supporting himself with just him arms. and its also a little hard to tell if the legs are off the ground or not, maybe make them positioned up a little bit more.

D*** in a box, by Justin Timberland!

The base of the wang is too wide and he has got some swolen fingers! Are the feet going to be panted, or is all the weight on the hands?

When I do a straddle-L my arms are locked out and this is what I see in many images as well… I think you may want to emphasize the muscular forms as much as possible as this position creates a lot of tension in the delts especially as his hips are raised higher than usual suggesting that he might be pressing to handstand.

All good valid crits, I’m only about 50 mins into it so thre still a lot of work to do, last session was basically just trying to nail some basic anatomy for the pose. Now as a rule I don’t go for poises such as these so it’ll be a nice change from the norm.

The ***** was actuly a last minute addition, normaly I dont add genitalia to my models, and nearly chickend out in this case…but then it would have been a bit easier as more would have been covered by underwear etc… Now to do have to admit I’ve not loked at any refs so far let alone genitalia ones…LOL I’l try and get that a bit more intune with the rest of the sculpt next time. (Although I dont want to be spending an hour sculpting a knob lol.)

I may alter teh pose slightly next time, I’m not sure right now…those legs just seem to knock things off in that pose…They lok fine from othr angles but I wanted that particular angle for the head pose, so I’ll have to work with that.

Just a very quick minor update to pose etc and a few other things.

maybe is just the angle but it looks alot better!!
Love the work on the leg too!

#8

Spreading out the fingers might help…

#9

It might take longer than a hour, if you get really accurate. :wink: Than you might get an interesting front page picture.:lol: Hands still look weird.

#10

Holy dangling junk, Batman! The sculpt looks great but I don’t know if the third leg would be that prominant. Maybe some shrinkage would occur during gymnastics?

The detail is awesome, though.

He’s looking good! Solid job for not using reference!

I think the transition between where the deltoids meet the triceps brachii and the transition between where the biceps meet the forearms needs a bit of attention.

he is definetly having a good day dream
