DarkLimit Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 This is a character I sketched like 3 years ago.. I decided to model him.... the idea is a hovering Bot with guns built into his armor from underneat... He's a guard for an experiment lab.. He's about 629 patches so far.. I will update as I progress...feedback is welcome. [attachmentid=22505] [attachmentid=22506] Quote
Fuchur Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Looks cool... He reminds me of the "good" aliens of The Fifth Element *Fuchur* Quote
DarkLimit Posted November 24, 2006 Author Posted November 24, 2006 Thanks guys... Ken - no his head has no motion..his entire body rotates as he looks around.. Quote
gazzamataz Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 I think he looks cool m8. He kinda reminds me of the evil droid/robot from that Disney film 'The Blackhole' from way back when (1979). Quote
DarkLimit Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 Gazz - thank you.. Here is a small update....he's starting to take shape..... [attachmentid=22725] [attachmentid=22724] Quote

Chrury Sanson Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 Smashing good job. Will he be a hover-bot or will he have legs? Quote
Mike Lium Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 Great work as usual bro You have a very eclectic style I always love to see what you are going to come up with next. Mike Quote
DarkLimit Posted December 13, 2006 Author Posted December 13, 2006 Guys thank you so much for ur feedback, this is by far the most complex model I have personally done.. so it's a learning experience for me.. Chrury Sanson - Yes he's a hovering Bot [no legs].. which will be linked to a turret.... Mike Lium - Thanks alot brother, it's good to see you!! Here are my new updates...am very pleased so far... He's 2121 patches so far.. Am trying to keep him as low as I can... [attachmentid=23111] [attachmentid=23112] Quote

Nunsofamerica Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 superb! Just a quick question. .. is that hair on his head? Quote
case Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 http://darklimit.deviantart.com/gallery/ this is were you find the colored version! Quote
DarkLimit Posted January 19, 2007 Author Posted January 19, 2007 -No it's not hair on his head....it's the attachement for his gun.... -Am re-designing a few things cuz his turret is not working out as I would like it.... -the color version is not final that was just a quick thing for the contest.... Now that I got a new comp I can push more details into him..... Quote
DarkLimit Posted March 27, 2007 Author Posted March 27, 2007 Just a small update... He's one of the few characters that will feature in my 3D comic.... feedback would be great.. Quote
DarkLimit Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 Been spending time playing with A:M trying to find a render stlye for my comic..... This is one of the ones I like... tell me what you think.. Quote
gschumsky Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Been spending time playing with A:M trying to find a render stlye for my comic..... This is one of the ones I like... tell me what you think.. Wow! That looks pretty cool. What were the settings you used to get that? Is that all AM, or anything done after in a paint program? Quote
agep Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 What were the settings you used to get that?Yeah.. tell us. I've said it before, but I gladly say it again... love your style Quote
DarkLimit Posted April 6, 2007 Author Posted April 6, 2007 -agep- Thank you so much...means alot coming from you... -gschumsky- Thank you....This is all A:M...am using toonrender... Am using basic toon settings within the render panel; no changes is made in PWS with regards to toon.... SETTINGS: LIGHT: Light: 1 Z-buffer kileg softness: 50% Darkness: 80% <----- very important ajust until you get a nice shadow cast effect... Map Res: 512X512 Bias: off Penumba: off RENDER: lines only: off override Lines: on color method: Specified <------- I set mine to black thickness: 1 Toon Line Bais: 1 MATERIALS: I used 2 types of materials to add some specularity and life to the model... Toonnation : [Dusty] - for highlights and [Cellular] - for the added noise FX.... ................ I have also tested this a bit with other types of lights but I find the best results is using Z-buffer lights which I use exclusively.. Here is an update adding more details and trying to get a feel for the toon effect.... Quote
Kelley Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 This guy is outstanding. Also, this is probably the best treatment of "arms as gun/weapon" since the early Transformer days. Great work! Quote
DarkLimit Posted April 19, 2007 Author Posted April 19, 2007 After much work and breaking a few drawing boards am happy to say I have completed my first character for my comic...I have one more major character to model and then a few small ones etc....left I will have updates of the new character in a few weeks..

JohnArtbox Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 Hey Dark, very different subject....but the style remains Very cool. Quote
DarkLimit Posted June 23, 2007 Author Posted June 23, 2007 I started modeling my second character.........here are his first impressions.... ** CANCELED DESIGN ** NEW DESIGN BELOW Quote
jirard Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Hey how did I miss this? It looks good to me Darklimit. Can I see a wireframe of it? Quote

KNBits Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 Awesome DL! Very unique style of your own. Modeling is top notch and the use of ToonRender turns out great! Keep us in the loop! Quote
DarkLimit Posted August 9, 2007 Author Posted August 9, 2007 Had some time to tweak my character... will have more updates soon... Quote
Zaryin Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 That character is just sick, in a good way -- and a bad, haha . Quote
Viper GTX2.0 Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Ya that character would look awsome in games like Quake 4 or even Doom 3. Quote
the_black_mage Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 sweet man! I'm loving it! what exactly do you plan on doing with these? Quote
DarkLimit Posted August 9, 2007 Author Posted August 9, 2007 -Thanks for the feedback guys..... mage - They are for a 3D comic book am releasing in 2009....... Quote
DarkLimit Posted March 3, 2008 Author Posted March 3, 2008 Hi Guys, Been in process of moving and trying to settle into my new place, I had some time to continue working on my comic book character....I made some adjustments to his mask/air supply I was not to happy with the way it look I hope this looks better and a bit more convincing...Am trying to find a balance between design and simplicity; his Torso is in the making... Quote
Spleinster Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Very scary looking. Wouldn't want to meet that thing in a dark alley. Nice work. Quote
jakerupert Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Awesome! Is the surface made from materials or is it some postwork done in photoshop? Jake Quote
DarkLimit Posted March 4, 2008 Author Posted March 4, 2008 Jakerupert - No post work, I have two materials on the model.. [Dusty] & [Cellular] and A:M's ToonRender...... Quote
KenH Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Very creepy. Maybe it has a Silent Hill feel to it? Quote
