Damn, two hours. I can't even make a rock. Good job.

Here is a concept of Necronomicon :

I like it Magnum :D Skulls are always such an intricate object to draw, no matter the animal. Always good to see someone who can draw them well.

I haven't done much lately besides some doodling and such, but recently decided to work on a future wallpaper of fanart from League of Legends. I'm taking my time with it and should have it finished soon. It's based on the champion Riven (my favorite <3), and will portray the moment where she shattered her runic sword.

Here's the sword I finished today:

Smooth edges are a wonder :D

Looks to elegant for the Skeleton King, and the green light doesn't look like it would belong to Kunkka, and I don't know what the 3 symbols mean.
Who does it belong to?

I'm assuming you meant mine by saying the green light. I mentioned it's Riven's blade from League of Legends. Specifically her Redeemed skin.

Examples from the game:

If you were talking to someone else, my apologies.

@Statyk - Sorry I'm retarded, I didn't read your text above your art. (I don't know why I skip over important details like that)

I honestly thought that was a Dota 2 workshop to be submitted item.

Playing around with high body sculpting. I haven't done any work on the Feet/Hands or Face.

Very nice result on the sword !

And nice start on the body, hope to see more. Smile

Finished up a little more details on the dude.

Just some touch up on some muscles and stuff. His arms still look like bricks though.

I retopologized him also, (The 3 bottom guys are it) with a basic biped rig. His hands look stupid because I have yet to rig them up for animation, that is next on my list.

And lastly trying to figure out how to animate the dude. Smile

To any fellow animators, if you made a Rig whether it's based on your own style or using a tutorial. Is it annoying to position or tweak the bones? (I'm using a IK rig)
With the current tutorial I'm using, it gets annoying when the arms/legs get close to the body, and rotating or moving them just makes the elbow/knee IK bones rotate like mad.

I'm using this tutorial for my Rig.

You can see at the beginning of the final Rig he makes. Would this be a standard rig that you guys would make? (Up to the point of the Body + Fingers. I currently have no face/eyes or toes to worry about.)

Could you suggest some tutorials on better rigs that would be better for a bipedal human?

Looks pretty good! May I ask you what kind of character you're trying to make and what program you use? Also I noticed your sculpt has some "muddy" shapes like on the right bicep which tells me that you started sculpting on a high subdivision level which I don't recommend. Instead try starting from lowest subdivision levels and work your way up with the subdivision levels, it will result a much cleaner and nicer sculpt in the end Smile
