Alright, time I made my entry.
I'm aiming for an ancient demonic/evil kind of thing with this guy, I have a few idea's of what it will look like, but I'll work out most of the detail as I go.
First WIP:
Just fleshing it out a bit, kind of taking shape, since I have 8k to work with I think I should at least make it look like it could be used for facial animation.

Update:
I think that I'm finaly getting some solid ideas for this now. Basicaly this is going to be one of those 'Hell broke loose', super natural horror games instead of the 'Scientists "acidently" made zombies' things.
I'll write something more coherent tomorrow, after I get some sleep

The heads 1210 polys right now, just need to add the real eyes and some teeth. Looking at it now the rest of the head, especaily the bit round his third eye needs to be jazzed up a bit. So by the time I do that and clean up the mesh a bit it should be closer to the 1500-2000 I wanted.
As for the 3rd eye, the other "real eyes will be blind/cateract and generaly icky. So his 3rd eye see's EVERYTHING. So in the game you shoot that out and hit him a few times while he can't see ya. Wash, rince repeat, just like any good video game.
As for the rest of the body:

Yeah, there is no concept art for this mesh. I have a general idea what the rest of the character will look like but thats it. If I did do any concept art it would just look like some scribbles and only I would be able to decifer them. I only have a Lomis ref/pose in the background to get the basic shape and proportion.
Jakeblade, I like that idea! I think you just helped me make up my mind for the over all style of this thing.
Hopefully I'll get some time to finish up the head on the weekend.
Horray, I'm still alive. I'm doing a TAFE course in web design at the moment that seems to take up a lot of my time...but anyway:

I like your handle. Have you seen the manga series - hellsing. the main character is this very cool vampire called arcard. Might give you some direction.
