Just want to show a recent mdoel i've been working on.



I still have a lot of work to do on him, hes going to have chains all over his body and a mace in his left hand.

In my humble opinion he stands too upright.
Maybe let him lean a little bit forward, let the shoulders hang down a bit (like an ape).

Other than that it looks pretty good, although the shape of the lower leg looks a bit edgy but that might just be the perspective.

Keep it up and keep those orcs coming ;-)

I donīt want to come to close...
but you have to learn human anatomy.
Even if this should be a phantasie character.
You have to include basic rules of nature.
There are fix nature laws for proportions.
It seems, that you donīt know them.

Maybe, alpha strike is right, maybe, he is wrong.
I don't think that this character is impossible within the laws of nature and human anatomy.
I think that it just contradicts certain expectations and feelings of harmony. (Yes, harmony within the proportions of a monster! wink )

An orc is expected to be strong and slow, more like a bear not like a fox.
Small ankles are a sign of being fast and light, not of carrying a big weight and bulk of muscles.

Your orc symbolizes a mixture of fast and strong and dump, it is sort of undecided what sort of character he is. He has big muscles but hands that are so small that they crash when he uses the whole power of his arm muscles.

Then the part where alpha strike made definitely a good point:
it is a humanoid character, that means one expects that his muscles fit more or less with the task and sit and proportions of the muscles of a human body.

It is good to imagine (and draw) a mammal creature as a construction of sticks (the bones) and threads(the muscles and sinews) to get a more harmonic anatomy.

The orc looks disproportional.

Well I beefed him up a bit no, just now realizing somehow i painted over his hand (need to fix that) then im onto the rest of the details. Im going to have him bloody, impaled by spears and and covered in chains.

He's looking cool! Very intimidating! smile

Guys, I think he's, um, building a model here. He's not yet animating it and working on posturing, gate, or anything like that.

Human anatomy doesn't really apply, nor do "laws of nature". This is a monster that doesn't abide by either one. smile

I will agree though, the legs should be a little bulkier. The hands are fine. You don't want the hands to be retarded-lookingly large, lol.

But keep at it, he's mean, ugly, and stout! laugh
