Starting the Demon

Work In Progress / 17 July 2024

This is the result of the first few days spent blocking out the Demon character which will sit upon the Podium I've just finished up.

Having a good base mesh to work from has really sped up the process in terms of a first pass allowing me to block out some of the big forms and general shape language for this bad boy relatively quickly. This is very early days but its coming along pretty well; He is going to have a stripped down look about him having a blend of an Oni and a Roman Gladiator with some medieval styled armor and weapons.

Once I'm happy with the block out this will all go into Topogun or Maya (which ever seems appropriate) and I will do a quick low rest mesh that I can build up from. Then back into ZBrush for some nice high res details... then the juggling act begins between the two programs.

I still need to figure out what weapon or weapons he will have; I'm thinking and spear and a sword as I'd like him to be a bit over the top.


I'd love to hear peoples thoughts so far and if anyone has some suggestions on weapons!
