Title: Help at Plataform game character.
Post by: Andre on September 24, 2010, 04:34:25 am
Right people! So this is basically the first time I've stepped into a plataform game ground. Can't really say how the pose should be. And I'm also having some anatomy problems so, I was wondering if any one could mind to help me out here.

Here's our Hero:

And here my sketches...

Here's un update, picked the third sketch and gave it some colors, the face is messy and I think I used too much colors, any thoughts?

The likeness is there and the palette looks good. The shoulders are much more narrow than in the photo and the view is nearly isometric... which is fine if the game view is isometric as well. Is it? Looks like the character is about to fall backwards as well, he could be better balanced.

Thank you JJ Naas. You were right about the pose! Here's another one with also some minor edits in the face:

I deffinatly like the second one  :P

Only thing that bothers me about it, is that when he's reaching for the lightsaber? or is it popping out of the flesh? can't decide from where hes getting the sword from as the arm is just getting cut off

other then that, pretty amusing to watch :D
