Heavy - TF2 - Fan Art! - W.I.P. UPDATED 04/24/2010

Hi guys! Howdy?

then … I’m a long time without posting anything because of study and work hard … but recently I started a new project, it is … fan art of “Heavy” from the game Team Fortress 2 ", the idea is to have a more realistic view of this character, and I’m working right now … so this is not over, but the criticisms and suggestions, or anything is very welcome = D i hope you like.

Wow, man. :+1:

That looks dope.
I like your realistic take on the Heavy. If he was already scary before now he’s totally terrifying.

Wort,
Very nicely done. Gotta love TF2…and especially the Heavy. XD

Make the Medic next!

TME

Great interpretation in the transition for a more realistic version. I really like the direction you’re heading with this. Cant wait to see more

Does that mean his gun is going to be super real too?? Very awsome!!! Best realistic TF2 model I’ve seen.

5 stars

First of all, I am quite a fan of the TF character design too and I think you are doing a really great job of a transition from cartoony to somewhat hyper-real.
that being said, I personally have the feeling that his face doesn’t really get the character across as much as the body and overall shape does.
Looking at the character introduction video of heavy weapon guy I see a guy who is not only very strong and toigh, but also has a softer alsmost childlike touch. I think that is what makes him so great. this mixture of the laughing big almost naive kid that loves playing with his guns, in the body of a big brutal dangerous guy. he’s the man who without hesitation blasts a horde of enemies away and then pats your shoulder with a big slap and invites to come with him,get wasted on vodka and have heavy fun :slight_smile:
it’s the contradictions that make a character even more interesting. the weak spots in the tough guy.
his famous quote about people thinking they can outsmart him, but he has yet to find someone to outsmart bullet is a good example. he is clearly not an intellectual beast and maybe even a little dumb and yet smart at the same time.
thus I think your face looks a bit too hard throughout and a little bit too old as well. it misses the soft spots.

but apart from that - really fantastic work.

borden - iuhuu! thx man!

Julian_K - great comment! I agree with what you say, this idea of naivety with greatness, power and strength, it is very interesting! I tried to make his face a little more naive, but he was very docile, and it was not the intention. for me it has to be like those sandbags with a machine gun on top that soldiers in war hide behind. A man of 50 years, which has the only intention to disrupt those who are on their way, as if this “intellectual beast” was a little in his appearance! =) very thx for coments man!!

coming soon more ups! =D

well, if that was your intention then I of course have no more crits :slight_smile:

I like the sculpt so far…a realistic approach to the character.

This is outstanding. Top Row.

looking great so far! you could work a bit more on the wrinkles on his pants;)

nice work so far…i’m looking forward for more :slight_smile:
