old Raziel

wicked, looks just like him, and i agree it feels so real

thanks for sharing.

cheers!

Very nice interpetation of this great character, superb job on the mood!
Could you please explain the workflow you used from the zbrush render to this final piece?
Thank you!

Holy Elder Gods of Nosgoth! That’s one amazing rendition of Raziel. I love the wrecked, rotting face with a peek at what’s underneath his scarf - there’s a definate reason he keeps his lower jaw covered up! The Legacy of Kain series is still one of my most favorite.

I’d also like to see some of the workflow stuff as well.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I saw the title of this post, but I’m glad that it was something that kicked a$$! You really nailed the mood and character! Great work, man! Keep it up!

In the past few months, a guy posted here some FanArt of Gears of War 2,
and i didn’t liked, because as a fan, i like to see the other fans doing a great job with the fanarts of Gears of War, and pushing his skills even more.

Dude, i love Soul Reaver, as much as i love Gears of War 2, a LOT!
And as a Fan i would criticize some aspects in your FanArt if the art wasn’t good at all,
but… Your art is good at all, is perfect.
Please, share with us more details about your Process!

wow awesome…one of my fav games of all time…def needs a reboot…awesome work would love to see more

Great so Far!!!
Awesome!

Soul Reaver all the way…good job.

Sweet work, always loved this character. Keep it up mate!!! What size has the original image you worked on?

All of your work is awesome man, I’m a fan. :+1:

I think everyone in this community would love some tips on your Zbrush lighting and photoshop compositing techniques! You should make a tutorial or write a book so I can buy it :wink:

Do you start with base mesh or Zspheres? Do you unwrap your models at all or just use GUV for polypaint? Any tips on how or where I can learn some better compositing techniques??

Keep up the awesome work!

Top row stuff, perfect sculpt and love the pose. I thought giving a slight bend to the left leg can help the rhythm If its what you are looking for.
This is what I mean.

Awesome work indeed!

Hellz yeah! Soul Reaver!

I agree with Iezho. That very slight bend would help a lot. I love your take on this character, I was never too keen on the original design but you really polished it up and made it something inspirational. Awesome work :smiley:

:Dthe best raziel ever made :+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:
great work

Good stuff. Well presented.

That was done only in Zbrush with Photoshop for post work? Or did you use an outside renderer.

great job
great game :+1:

Nice work. Makes me crave a next gen remake or reimagining of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver using your rendition of exiled Raziel. I would love to see your take on Kain as well as your take on Wingling Raziel. Because, imo, I hated the design for wingling and exiled Raziel.

You think you can upload some close up renders?
