I started modelling this last week it seems to fit in with the comps specification so I'm entering.
this was the basic concepts. I never intended to make a model of a demon, I was just sketching on my tablet and drew something that kind of look demonic and it inspired me to model and it just evolved from there. I was originally planing on makeing him with wings but it just didn't seem right to me after a while so I scratched that idea.

this is what I have done so far. The face texture itself almost takes up a 512 so far but I'll shrink it to 256 for this comp so I have room to texture the rest of him.

I put the muscle structure on the texture to use as reference when I add shading. he is 3131 polys so far so i can still add a bit of detail or maybe give him a weapon.

that is looking quite nice but im concerned about some parts of the proportion [:)] like arms are a little short..... also his arse can be defined more its too small.... Dunno hes a demon it can take any form, size, and shape [:)] but man that is looking awesome so far........ keep up the good work [:D]
The arms seem correct but the ass does need some padding, even if its stylised, its a major muscle group for his leg movements and needs more bulk to get power.
I would also clean up the face, you have too many polys that aren't defining any shape, especially around the nose.
Awesome concept though, I really like the profile shots in the top right corner of the first image.
I would use some polys from the excess in the face to define more muscle shape but the abs can be done effectively with a texture, I wouldn't use geometry.
Nice start, look forward to seeing this one completed.
I think that face has the most character and professional look out of all the entries so far and a body that fits perfectly but.. nothing the arms are the right proportions and the arse is just a little small but easily fixed. I?m sure goldenchocobo can handle it.
Really like it.
Please comment on my work and share your artistic gift with me.
I've made the ass bigger and done a fair bit of the texturing I'm still debating weather to give him genital detail of and/or a weapon with the extra polys I've got to use[img]http://members.optusnet.com.au/silverchocobo/wire_lineup.jpg[/img]
Nice start Goldenchocobo.
I like the way you have painted the hair.
I assume you will be going in later and sharpening things up and adding more detials to the flesh, etc.
Im not much of a modeller so I cant really help out in that area, but it looks like you set up the face for face anims? if so I think that will look really cool.

I think the ass/hips might need to be adjusted still. Maybe he's just 'clenching'.
As for detail in the genital area - you could give him a raging phallus but I imagine you'd scare everyone away. Interesting tho' is that a lot of European demon pictures depict demons/Satan in that manner. I'd personally go the J.I Styles route and give him an ornate codpiece. He needs some adornments of some sort because despite the cool model, he's looking a bit bare.
Perhaps a necklace or armbands of some sort? Check some Final Fantasy pics of Ifrit or something.
Maybe an Akuma esk giant bead necklace.
This model looks well made, with the detail in the face being an obvious highlight, but... He does appear a bit dull (no offence) Nothing in particular brings out the Demon Overlord image to me. In my opinion he needs stuff. What stuff is up to you but he does need some stuff.

Looks nice ari.
I can't think of any decent weapons suggestions, so i'll leave that one alone. What i would suggest is a bit more of that hair. Give him a hairy groin, hairy forearms, and hair anywhere else you see fit.
The hair on his head looks awesome, and it would really break up the rest of his body.
the arse is much nicer, it just needs to be hairy... :)
I've added hair here and there and changed his colour slightly to give him a heathier look. I think he looks less 'dull'. I don't want to add armour or clothes, it just doesn't seem demon like to me. I still may give him a weapon though.

Nice work so far. I like the hair and the muscalature is coming along well.
The ass is definately too small for the body and I think the rule for hands is that they should come halfway down the thigh. Yours are still a little too high. I think the area you might want to lengthen is between the bicep and forearm as he doesn't seem to have the dip that forms there, even on muscle men.
He would look cool with some tattos or scarification I think. Nice work, looking forward to seeing it finished.
damn that is looking nice.... awesome concept too i love the face [:)] diablo inspired.......!!!! lots of detail too [:D]
