I’ve been blocking out this piece for about 2 days and I still have quite a bit of blocking to do! The sheer amount of armor pieces on this piece is going to make it look amazing, the complexity is something I’m really excited about. When it’s all said and done I expect this piece to be anywhere from 40 to 100 subtools and I’ve never really gone that far before!
So obviously it’s mostly still just geometric shapes but I did manage to detail the waist a bit just for a change of pace. The breastplate has been a focus of mine and I think once the torso is posed it will be a great focal point for the piece, the plates will turn with him giving a.. bug carapace feel to it all.
The face has been softened up from a hardened warrior to a more regal figure and I really think the hair is going to lock that in. It could be a bit brash still but we’ll see how that goes in the next day or two. I better get back to sculpting!
