Edis WIP stuff...

[Edimasta]

Well, now I try to do some WIP diary here... starting with my newest project:

A fat Ogre - tribute to World of Warcraft

Everybody knows this game, and no other game in these times has touched the gaming-community more, then everything else... World of Warcraft.

I like it, I play it, and I want to do something related to WoW.

A few weeks ago I thought, it\'s time that I buy some ogre-miniatures... those are one of the many that are still missing in my collection. And then the idea came up to combine this with my wow-idea:

Letz do a cool WoW-Warhammer-Ogre ^^

For now I plan to do a normal Ogre and something like a \"boss\", inspired from the game. I want to do it as exact as possible, to make it look like in the game.
For this I made some screenshots:

This one shows the normal ogre I want to do, skin-color something between red-brown to light orange with some flesh... I\'ll try Scab Red, Terracotta and Bronzed Flesh. My ogre may have pants \'cause I\'m not so sure about modelling some feet... ^^

I started a few days ago with a normal ogre bull, here is what I\'ve done so far:

Still some gaps to fill and some things to smooth down, but I am satisfied with it at the moment...

What do u think? Any suggestions, comments... ?

The tusks on the mouth need to be fatter and more prominent on the face, when looking at the screenshot that was the first facial feature i noticed.

Looking good so far. I agree with what Matty said, and also I think the head should be a bit smaller to match the screenshot.The sculptwork is very smooth

 

[supervike]

I think you could increase his girth easily by using an ORC head instead of an Ogre head.....You\'d still need to do some greenstuff work, but it would be a bit closer to the actual pic.

 

[Ogrebane]

Well cant see the pics so I\'ll take your word for it that its good.

So how country life treating you Vike.

Update - Finally finished sculpting:

And primered him today with black and some white for the lightning

 

[Edimasta]

Basecolors, slight shades and slight highlights are done now...

Sry for the bad light-conditions on the pic... sun\'s going down ^^

 

[Link122]

Extremely good conversion...
Just don\'t do it WoW-style...
That\'s where I came from before this forum

 

[misterjustin]

I really like your sculpt on the fat. The bulge and fold is perfect. All in all I think that this is excellent work. Good job!

 

[Thecadian]

good sculpting want to see it finished

 

[mistamick]

It is very good.

 

[Edimasta]

Slight progress on the ogre but more on the base

What do u think?

 

[XeO3]

sculpt is excellent, paint job needs some freehand though, like the tattoos and trim on the loincloth.

i bet custom minis based on people\'s WoW characters would make some serious scratch.

 

[demonherald]

looking good great idea for the reference...

 

[WingZ]

very cool man.. i havnt tryed WoW yet but I like th e idea

 

[faulkns]

Think the belly bulge over the belt is spot on.

Paint job looking a bit too red at the moment. Another highlight to come yet?

Looking forward to the base though

 

[Ogrebane]

OK I see what your doing now. Nice job so far. Your green work is very good and the flesh tones look spot on.

 

[Edimasta]

Been a long time for now... think I\'ll revive this and continue ^^
