Splinterlands Art Contest // Week 169 //Magi Necrosi
For this weeks contest I decided to do one of the new Chaos Legion Characters.
I used this image as a reference, I thought re creating him would be pretty simple, but as usual it was more challenging
then I thought.
I used this guy as my base model, he is a pretty popular model for poser and Daz studio users, he is known as Michael 4. Usually I use anime style characters for my spinterlands works, but for this animation, Michael was a little easier to work with.
I added a cloak and a few other items to give him the right look. I also added some magic balls.
I gave special attention to those cool eyes, I wanted to have a glowing light around them, but for some reason the program refused to render it the right way lol.
For the animation, I used my Kinect motion capture camera.
This is me doing the motions from the cameras view. It was a pretty simple animation, but because I am such a terrible actor, it took me quite a few takes to get it just right lol.
Wow amazing artwork. This is a great job.
Thank you! @sralim, glad you liked it
Hey I like this guy! The action is good where he shoots the magic balls. And I like how you shared your motion capture work. That's the first time I've seen you do this and it adds another piece to the puzzle on how you make the animations!
Woaah awesome 🤩
