Warcraft Male Human, Fan Art

Hope to get the textures finished in the next day or maybe tonight. I've got my Tom Selleck reference ready to go, for the stache and maybe I'll put some Wolverine type arm hair on his tri-cep and posterior deltoid(rawr!). Update: He's in maya and textured. The portrait is a shot out of MudBox with a slapdash background I painted up.

If I could make a Thorin, this is how I'd start

"The Hobbit" is coming! I've been listening to the unabridged audio book for the last few weeks and needed to make something. This is the start of my take on Thorin Oakenshield (rawr!). This is my favorite illustration of a dwarf by amazing artist Adrian Smith. I don't know that I'll be able to match this look, but it's definitely an inspiration.

The New Warcraft Human Male. More Sorbo! Less Bieber.

Number 6 doesn't look anything like Justin Bieber, but 5 sure does ring of Sorbo. What player would ever pick 4 as a look is a mystery to me-though, sadly, nature has chosen it for me in real life. Thankfully A is an option! I hope to start work on the game model soon. Here are a few face change ups. These are created for symmetrical textures/uv/geo. They would look a bit better with some asymmetry of course...so I might take one and create asymmetry in just the area of the eyes, nose and mouth.
