it was a personal concept, although i do appreciate you taking the time to do so and crediting me for the design (correct way to do so), i do also encourage you however, to ask permission first before doing so

Hey Rui, I've got a question =/ how or where did you get the character frame sheet from? Im not sure what to call it lol but basically the grids xP I need some T_T
π: 0 β©: 1
the grids?
i make them myself, i draw the figure first, front view, then i add the grid on a different layer of some major points to be guided by
small summary
- draw the figure front first or side or whiever you want first to define it's structure, size and later on details
- draw lines (u or shift+brush stroke) passing on the head, shoulders, feet and so on until you're happy to do the rest of the views
hope i was helpfull, let me know if you have any issues with this but there aren't any custom made grids when it comes to creature concept
for humans, be sure to count 8 heads or 7 & 1/2, 8 heads,
1 - head
2nd - head passes just above nipple line
3rd - waist
4th - above sex
5th - upper half of the thigh
6th - above kneecap
7th - upper calf
8th - the rest
a quick search on google and you'll find what i talked about, human proportion basically

I'm always the unimaginative one to say "stop having fun, guys", but... I don't think he would be that hard of an opponent. When he steps on the ground, his weight will cause him to root and he can only spin around on his wasp-thin waist and try to poke you from this point on. Unless the back view that's not included contains rocket propellers, of course, and he doesn't need to walk at all
π: 0 β©: 1
ahah you'd be surprised
this is fantasy so think outside the box here, despite his anatomy he's incredibly fast, and also very agile
ill probably make an attack sheet for him
π: 0 β©: 1
It's fantasy, and in fantasy things don't need to be able to work in real life, of course, like various flying creatures, but they look believable enough and it's on a second thought that you realize they're impossible- giants, ogres, dragons, werewolves, mechas... But Each of these I can imagine rendered as CGI in a film and how they move around (the feeling of mass they convey with each step) and when I imagine this guy, all that energy goes into him getting stuck, because he looks very bulky and regular soil won't endure such force on such little space... I just can't help it. Then I imagine he's moving on concrete. And realize how even though he can walk on concrete, he'll sway to his side when he stops, because again I imagine him as a well rendered special effect and the sense of power that comes from his bulky upper torso.

was that good or bad?
anyways im working on the attack concept sheet
hopefully it will help everyone understand how he moves, how he attacks, the only thing i can't depict is his speed
im trying to compile all information on this one
then ill just have to set up the page

Interesting, but reminds me alot of the soldier heartless from KHII, but on steroids!
The biggest things are the new lineart and coloring. They seem different now. Did you change something?
π: 0 β©: 1
well i did play both KH
but i don't know which heartless you're talking about
can you link me to a pic?
of all the heartless i know
none of them resemble this one at least not at my eyes
new line art and coloring were just experiments to feel how i would work better doing concept art
π: 0 β©: 1
I've got no idea how to link, but it's the knight in KHII from Battle of a Thousand Heartless, right after you fight Demyx for the second time. They're most popular in Hollow Bastion. They only carry one sword though, as opposed to your design.
Then again, I may just have KH fever and am seeing something in nothing. I'm waiting for KH: Birth By Sleep to come out, so I've been playing the KH series like crazy.

just copy paste a link to the image here
still not really sure who you're talking about :\
if it's the gy im thinking of then i don't really find that many resemblances
my design those are drills/those jousts lances but spin
i'll have to see the link to give you or not reason

Go there. It's a small picture, but it should work. It was really the best I could find.
π: 0 β©: 1
ah i see what you're talking about
the main thing you may see a resemblance on is the legs, but my creature's legs have only 1 joint on the knee, from what i see those have 2 knee and an ankle, the shape looks drill like so i agree with you there
but the rest not so much
π: 0 β©: 0
I really love this design
Slightly reminds me of the Dullahan knights the way they appear in Devil May Cry 3, but just slightly (not to distract from the originality of this guy)
The Lances on his arms and legs and the eye on his abdomen are looking awesome.
π: 0 β©: 1
thank you
i was actually curious and went google that but i couldn't find any picture of them
really wanna know how they look like
the only DMC i played was the forth, really liked all the angelic creatures
π: 0 β©: 1
There's a short article in the DMC-Wikia about them
The image of them isn't very good, though. Basically, they are flying knights with those razor-like shields and spikes all over the place.
They also have a red crystal on their back (which is the weak spot).
All DMCs were pretty good (well, except for number 2
π: 0 β©: 1
i agree completely
their monster design has always caught my attention

Very cool! A few things might need tweaking on the posed sketch but overall it's pretty nice. Your characters seem to be improving at the mo, keep it up!
π: 0 β©: 1
hey dude thanks
really means a lot
yep i agree
but by pose you mean just the ortoviews/sheet or the overall poses i make
π: 0 β©: 0
Damn. That's so cool!! I want to be this guy when I grow up! hahah C:

with spinning drills for arms and legs, ouch
and an eye for a stomach that can let you spin 360... hmm maybe i should have illustrated some attack movements as well
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah. I really wanna be that guy!!
π: 0 β©: 1
you'd need to die and be so horribly evil that your soul could be placed on an armor and chained by the eye though
π: 0 β©: 1
I am totally down with that.
π: 0 β©: 1
That's sketchbook pro you're trying out? I've been meaning to try it myself.
The concept is really awesome, I like those thin pointed legs and arms, and I'm always a sucker for a plumed helmet.
π: 0 β©: 1
yep
thank you
the pointy things also act as drill things 
erm well they spin
