the Black Hand

I’ve decided to do a character which should belong in the Conan universe. I envisioned him as an assassin who serves the evil cultists. Thus I put some ceremonial garb on him to mix with the battle armor. He should be kind of like the wolverine type of character, fast and furious.

This is still a work in progress, my main thing now is to fix the proportions, silhoutte and form before going in and do the texture details...

Nice work m8, I like the accessories so far and the detailing up till now, love the axe. Though I assume you’re gonna be working more on face and anatomy.

yeah, i’d give him a scowl and some scars for the face…

hmm… any pointers on what to fix for the anatomy? i’d change the fingers and the neck length but i think you saw some different mistakes…

a minor update…

Your work is excellent and nothing I could say could EVER take away from that. You are a true artist and you have my deepest respect.

However, I have been seeing a trend lately that bothers me on a logic lever.

Yes, heavily bulging warriors with huge axes, swords, ray guns and whatever look really cool. They are eye candy for the game industry and little kids with “I are a ninja” t-shirts. They get artists hired and that is a GOOD thing. What bothers me is the these warriors could, in life, hardly walk! A little guy in jeans carrying a saber would cut them to ribbons.

I’m going in for oral surgery t’morrow for three really bad and painful teeth so I guess I am just grumpy and venting. Ignore me. Logic is a burden and a party pooper.

Your work rocks. Rock on!

Love the new update, looks really amazing and very fitting to the Conan Universe. Looks really cool, and love the detail. Good work man.

Only thing I can ask is, is this guy supposed to be blind (as in he has no eye holes on that mask)? Otherwise he looks pretty cool.

hi, here’s my final images, I’ve spent quite a long time on these and I’ve decided to move on. I did a turnaround too, you can see it in my reel :
