ok, Sen asked for a side view of the character, so I'm just remaking the post. "I use a doodle chat at xat.com and the person running it tried his own take on the Forte Gigas, that became my avatar for a bit, and now he has made a humanoid version of it. The artist is FoxFire_KADRPG, so the design credit goes to him. Heres some pictures of what I'm looking for (The red on the shoulders glow)."





Here is the new pic you asked for.


And there are some notes from Foxfire_KADRPG for you too.
" Forte Gigas is basically a Megaman clone. You can steal the proportions of
any character in Capcom's series and still "make it work."

My mental image of this character continues to change, but I basically
stick to the idea of a four-head's tall "bean pole", in tapered armor. If the
player who want's this model cannot answer a question about his design, it
really isn't important enough.

Helmet stripe may or may not be elevated. Top part of cross in center of
chest plate is. Chestplate is rectangular, but might be adjusted to mimick
pectorial muscles. Base of feet might match head width. I still have no idea
what exact shape the steel-colored "fins" on the helmet are.

Good Luck"

Note from me: He is supposed to 5'5", but you can make him normal height if you wish.

ok, thats better lol
i can work with this P:

[ForteGigasGos]

Foxfire_KADRPG "if its purple or red make it shine."

So body shines (if possible) red on shoulds glow (those shaders on most of the KR skins).

[BadWolf]

will do, theyre simple enough P:

got the chestplate/thingy made lolz



gonna make the arm plates next

[ForteGigasGos]

oh, thats why you needed a side view. Thats kinda cool.

[BadWolf]

a bit more done


still gotta make the head feet and hands

rigging this thing is gonna be fun @_@

[jawfin]

Just a point to be considered Sen - I think you should work out how the bones work in a model, and just get a working stickman going, because you may well find there are a few requirements you haven't considered and you would then have to do a huge amount of rework on whats been done here already.

[BadWolf]

im not too sure what you are referring to jaw @_@

the bones are currently actually on the scene, i just have them set to be invisible, as the tut said i need to build the model over the bones then segment it into 9 parts then weight it

the same site provided a 'previously weighted skeleton' as it called it, so then i just gotta follow the another tut to weight it

as i said idk what u mean XD

[ForteGigasGos]

Wheres the cod-piece?
Coming nice so far. But putting into consideration what Jaw said, dang, you may have to start it over?

[BadWolf]

not likely, im getting pretty good at this lol

and im working on eet >< notice the missing hands feet and head @_@

[BadWolf]

mk, model is almost done, just gotta finish up the head and make the hands, then after the UV mapping its on to rigging @_@

[ForteGigasGos]

Helmet doesn't cover the whole chin, it gets close, but he needs to be able to open his mouth still >.>

[BadWolf]

<.<
i didnt intend to make his mouth open-able lol

bah, ill recede the chin area of the helmet a little

[Lothar]

Imo looks like megaman after going through gay eye for the straight guy... lol Makeover = P

Read the stuff after the last pic up top. and the show is called "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy"

[BadWolf]

mk got the body pretty much all modeled, now on to UV mapping and so on


soz for the belated update, been busy tryin to get my scheduling and time use better situated @_@

[ForteGigasGos]

No problem man, you got a life and others things. Work on it at your own pass.
Coming along nicely. Oh and I've been updating the ppl in the chat room with every pic, and Foxfire_KADRPG is really happy to see the progress on this.

[BadWolf]

very small update


its not much, i just adjusted the parts to fit the skeleton better

[ForteGigasGos]

0.0 the armor looks weird that way, I think you may need to make it shorter, about Jawa height (seeing as thats the closest to 5'5", the character's size). If not, its still good regardless.

[BadWolf]

not really sure what you mean by it not looking right @_@

i actually extended the length of the torso and raised the parts attached to it up higher to make it line up with the skeleton better, hes about the height of kyle katarn atm, im uncertain how to scale down the height ._.

[ForteGigasGos]

Do what you feel is best man. I don't mind it being normal height, since I prefer normal size.

Ok, I was rather not wanting to make this public (please I still want this to stay private), but some more colors, and its made by me.

The art is the person who drew the character, and the music is random songs found on the internet (4 random remakes, 1 official Megaman song, and 1 fan remake, I need to give credit to GaMeBoX for (Not asked to, but it is his work)). The vid was put together by me though.

[Lothar]

Looks like a character off the old megaman games - god i use to love them z saberz ( rip off of sws lol )

[ForteGigasGos]

Zen, first page, under the pictures >.>

ok lol, after watching that vid again i gotta ask, does forte gigas change colors to match those of the bosses he fights? looks like it o.o

does that mean u want dif skin color schemes?
