Thanks guys :slight_smile:

I didn’t want to give double pecs muscles, really. I don’t believe the lower arms would have the same range of movements of the upper ones. I don’t imagine these arms going all the way up, or even all the way forward, or backwards, as I wouldn’t consider a clavicle system around there. They are complementary arms, and I thought the “proto-pecs”, blending with the serratus muscles, should be enough.

I know there can be many other ways to imagine that, this was just my personal choice :slight_smile:

Anyways, here is an update.

That being said, if his lower arms really aren’t useful I would think they wouldn’t be as muscular and well built like the functional ones. I would think they’d either be thinner or smaller, like T-Rex arms. Without pec muscles he wouldn’t have the power to push those massive arms forward, like in a bench press move.

#123

Yes, I know what you mean :slight_smile:
But this is a fantasy creature, I am not trying to create a functionally accurate fictional body, I just want him to look cool :slight_smile:
And this is my interpretation of “cool”.
Yours can be different, I understand and respect that. Thanks for your input :slight_smile:

#124

Yeah he sure is looking cool :):+1:
But yeah, its not a 100% functional, then you would have needed to rebuild the skeleton to.

#125

Very creative! And that is a wonderful face!
Great work!

#126

Excellent work Pedro! Don’t change anything. I can’t believe people are criticizing an imaginary creature!!!:rolleyes:

Are the striations on his abs achieved purely with claytubes and smoothing?

#127

It’s called a critique. It’s constructive criticism. I’m not saying the work isn’t awesome. I realize it’s imaginary but I think it ads to the realism when it’s anatomically correct (If a 4 armed creature were real.). Arms are pushed forward by a lot of muscles, the pecs being pretty major. Don’t take it the wrong way, your work is really great.

BTW,
Have you seen this guys work?

Thanks guys.

I think the point here is that I wasn’t trying to create a new concept of Goro. I am just modeling it based on many different references.

Of course I am adding some of my personal taste to it, but I am trying to be true to the original character.

Yes, it could be interesting if I wanted to reinvent the body from scratch, but then it wouldn’t be the Goro that I was trying to make.

I just wanted to make him big and mean, but still the original one.

Mastershokan - Yes, that is basically claytubes ans smooth. Probably some default, inflate, clay, or rake here and there, but mostly claytubes and smooth.

Thanks!

Thank for the info. I can’t wait to see the next model.

Thanks for the link: caffeineandpixels

#130

See? Those reference images would have been great at the beginning. I didn’t know that was an existing character. (I’m not a gamer.)

#131

Hahahaha, no worries dude. He is a very well know game character, maybe because I am a character artist at a video game company I assumed everyone would know him, no needs for introduction :slight_smile: I guess I was wrong.

#132

Haven’t played a game since they cost a quarter, you had to go to an arcade, and they had names like Joust, Frogger, Centipede, Tempest, Donkey Kong…
Yeah, I know. I don’t have a cell phone either. People can’t believe it.

#133

You are not alone in the self imposed ban on cell phone caffeineandpixels.
I enjoy being “out of touch”
Love the character. This incarnation is looking great!

#134

Hey great forms there, nice:+1:

#135

These generation of games was the most incredible of all, in my opinion. I’m a big fan and still playing these old classics even nowadays, through emulators. Altough I love currently art for games, I prefer to play the old ones :wink:

Pedro: You’re a true master, my friend, the only thing I don’t see in your goro is his breathing. :slight_smile: A great addition for my references folder.
PS: How about some polypainting on him?

#136

Thanks a lot guys! :slight_smile:

Amauri - You are very kind, my friend :slight_smile: Thank you very much!

Here is n update. Started to pose him.

Still need to fix some parts, and refine the skin.

Hope you like it.
