I think because he’s arching his back, and standing on his feet. It’s exposing more of his stomach. So I think the abs look normal, but you could shorten the lower back by 2 inches maybe.

This isn’t the traditional pose for crucifiction. Christ is usually shown hanging from his hands. Where as here, he looks like he is standing up and has back pain.

Are you doing Christ on the cross? I’ve always wanted to try doing Christ, but lack the talent to give it a try.

I think a more weathered, and aged looking cross would look better. Something like old drift wood? Maybe make the nails longer so they look like they were driven in hard, and long.

I can’t wait to see it finished!

Great Job. I like it a lot. I would like do a Christ of the Cross too.

It’s really hard to make crits to this, because one, the anatomy can be stylized as depictions of this subject often has is. Two, so many distortions of the body took place because of the crucifixion.

I like the lower abdomen a lot because crucifixion is a form of suffocation of torture was suffocation and looks like it pulls a bit. He is having some trouble breathing.

My only critiques are the back of the heels seem long.

It’s looking good. I like this new cross more. The foot rest probably needs the most work at the moment. :slight_smile: :+1:

Great Work!

Firstly I want to congratulate you on a great piece of work.

Now for a little crit… if i may!?

I believe that the success of crucifiction as a method of execution is due to the poor soul hanging from his arms (as someone mentioned earlier) resulting in eventual asphyxiation.

Wikipedia reference which might help you capture the greusome nature of the event:

A theory attributed to Pierre Barbet holds that the typical cause of death was asphyxiation. He conjectured that when the whole body weight was supported by the stretched arms, the condemned would have severe difficulty inhaling, due to hyper-expansion of the lungs. The condemned would therefore have to draw himself up by his arms, or have his feet supported by tying or by a wood block. Indeed, Roman executioners could be asked to break the condemned’s legs, after he had hung for some time, in order to hasten his death.[15] Once deprived of support and unable to lift himself, the condemned would die within a few minutes.

well there are a few things wrong with the story about jezus anyway.

nails in the hand can’t support the body…so hence the ropes.
anyway read this if you want to be picky ( http://bandoli.no/crucifiction.htm)…but…but) the 3d shown is basicly based on the biblical version.
and i do like it…i’d say…“he got it nailed” the foothold needs abit of work tho…same style as the cross would be best…crued woodshoppin style

Very great! :+1:

The new version looks great! The texturing on the wood looks a little stretched or something. As if the UV mapping isn’t relaxed correctly.

Lots of talk about the technical details of crucifixion and how it was performed.

It depends greatly on the artist if they are trying to depict a scene based upon modern theories, or if the image is an artistic depiction of a crucifixion.

People who have been painting images of Christ’s crucifixion have done many different versions over the centuries.

It’s really up to the artist. What he thinks captures his subject best.

Love it!

It’s getting better. Now the part that stands out the most to me is his torso and hips. They look a little too wide compared to his head and limbs. Keep up the good work. :slight_smile:

#23

That’s Awsome! :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1:

#24

Hey skulll_monster, great update. I like the fact that you twisted the head slightly, looks much better this way… adds to the drama a lot.

#25

piz…thank you !

KOSOVA…thank you ! yes allright !

Great work man, I know I wouldn’t be able to make this piece. However, I do have to mention as the above comments did, about the support near the feet. From my understanding there was nothing. And when a person died it was because they couldnt really breathe. And looking at your setup, Jesus, or this man can still support himself on the clump of cloth or rope by his feet. I would take that part all together.

Besides that minor crit, I think it is a stunning piece =)

#27

Stunning work, I especially like the last series with the muted
blue green lighting and the placement of one foot over the other… but I do get the feeling that the feet “read as being too large” which is caused by their placement and with the light acentuating the toes which draws too much attention to them.

Just one word… WOW!

This is looking really amazing.
