very nice miss maddy! keep posting!
Welcome to ZBC, Maddy! Great to see another girl here. 
Your models are awesome. I love the elf and the demon.
Great work! I can`t wait to see more from you.
Thanks so much for the support guys!
Here is a piece that I’ve started concepting to represent a final boss for a game. I’ll be making a sculpt of the two characters and will probably normal map and texture a game ready version. The concepts are gradually being finalized as you go down, any suggestions on which of the 4 designs on the bottom image work best?
Any & all suggestions are welcome.
Name: Le Cri (The Cry)
Le Cri was raised in a small village as a summoner. At the age of 10, she was taught how to summon small farm animals and as time went on her abilities became more powerful. The animals became larger and more imaginative. Her creative mind knew no limits.
There was a law however. When a creature was summoned it could only exist in this world for a short time and would then have to be sent back, like a mother bird letting go of her child. Having the ability to call upon any creature she desired, at age 23, she summoned Kre, the chameleon king. A strange bond was created between the two and when the time came, she did not have the heart to send Kre back.
Le Cri was banished from her home. Cast out from society she was forced to find a home in the caves and the woods that surrounded her. As years passed rumor spread of what became of Le Cri. Some villagers spoke of monsters others swore she was dead. Le Cri and Kre became soul mates. Their magical bond to each other caused Le Cri’s form to change. The magic painfully ate away at her flesh. Her body became one with her surroundings, able to blend in just as Kre could.
Le Cri’s hatred toward the ones who cast her out has made her a hunter. Villagers, travelers and anyone that she comes upon faces certain death. The woods are no longer safe. Some have escaped her grasp. The memory of Le Cri’s sorrowful eyes remains burned in their memory, the carvings on her face that make her look as though she will cry for all eternity make it only fitting her that name means The Cry.

I like the one in the dress, but the face is superb on all of em!
[email protected] - Thank you
rouncer - Thanks so much!
I did a few varied head pieces. Let me know what you like guys, she’ll be one terrifyingly sexy demon! After this, I will start concepting KRE! La Chameleon King! And then produce a final concept of the two.

neat!..
… looking forward for more…
Nice concept ! The long ears are really great, my favorites are the ones in the middle. For the eyes, i hesitate between the first ones and the third one.
Looking forward to see the 3d version.
(I really hate copy & pasting things, but I feel that this is necessary) 
Thank you thank you thank you so much guys for the support. It means so much to me because this will be the first challenge I’ve entered where I’m determined and driven enough to finish it… your compliments inspire my to do my best not only for myself but for you guys. Again, thanks so much for the help! <333
I’m just getting over being very ill the past few days and I’ve decided on a final sketchy concept for Le Cri’s over all design. Personally, I think this works best in every way after a lot of thought - I’ve even included the head piece that got the most votes. From here on I will start designing Kre. Round 2 of the concept stage starts now!

I’d love to be able to concept sketch like you do. with just black white and some middle tones. But I’m no good at it ;p
i’d have to agree with the choices you went with, keep it as asymetrical as possible, it seems to work well for this character.
Maybe the cloak would also look cool a bit torn up. That could get some more variation in that piece of clothing on both sides as well.
Nice work so far , I’d do a thumbs up smiley , but they never seem to work when I try.
Hi Maddy
Its just cool to see an interpretation of a female by a female…fresh and logical powerful insight.
Get on with it woman.
Ohhhh what a fantastic concept, and really cool sketchbook!, you are very talented Maddy :), making speed sculpts is definitely the best exercise to improve ZBrush skills, (and the best thing to do this summer :p), so coolsmall_orange_diamond
I’ve barely had any free time lately! Working hard on Tactical Assault as I was promoted to Lead Character Modeler for the project so I have a lot more responsibilities. I had some free time tonight and started a new piece aside from challenges and such - named Basher. He will have pupils and a lot more detail and eventually some armor and hair. It’s so free to work from my imagination once again.

I realy like your Basher WIP and the way he’s turning !
Hey
basher sculpt is so cool:) keep it up!
what matcap do u use, because i like the color of it
Lovely work here Maddy, I like your style. Great to see so much thought going into a design at the concept stage. It is hard to resist the urge to jump straight in to the modelling, but you recognise the importance of design. You are obviously a wise artist indeed.
