Yes. Finally. First personal project that'll get finished in a long while.



Maybe I will enter this for the halloween competition at dA.
If I do that, 20 colours is the max. And it currently has 20 so I can't be adding more.

The inner circle around his head looks really flat on the side and tops. Fix it with 'AA'.

Further more I can not wait to see all the clothes and the diamonds smoothed out!

The fingers seem to look like they are bending in a strange position.
Try straightening them or shortening the fingers. If not, bend them a bit further up.
And if you want more effect, add another bend. If you bend your own finger it kind of splits into 3 parts.
Sorry if im not making sense.

So nice to see you around again :)

The arms posture seems very smooth, thus 'cute'
Maybe more angular so that they are menacing?

The blade looks awesome.

Didn't I make a thread with the exact same name a year back?

Anyway keep going and we'll tell you what you should have done the other way when you're finished. :P

Azure: Yeah I know what you mean. Hope the current version fixes it. Thanks.

Jal: What do you mean exactly by 'smooth arm posture'?
And thanks man :D

Leroy: Could be, no idea, haha. And well, I think I'm gonna call it finished. So hit me!

I was referring to the slope of the arms themselves, from the elbow to the wrist.
Sometimes smooth curves can be read as cute whereas angular can be more menacing.
The hood opening itself looks menacing because the is an angular drape to it. If that where all curvy and smooth it wouldn't be so menacing.
