You could say that - even just that would be better than he had a heart attack and 6 months of silence

Grats on getting the new goods.

Was the Asura made in Z-Brush? Looks like you're getting a hang of the program.

Thanks guys

@Charlie: I made that in a program called Sculptris, they are under ZBrush now.
I will eventually import the fully done Asura base into ZBrush for further editing and refining + probably retopo too, but the base mesh was done in Sculptris.
It was my first time using the program too. I can't say much else about it but that it's absolutely mindblowing.
I plan to do Charr female figure next.

I don't know if I'll be open to taking male character commissions yet (in GW2), so for right now I'm working on getting the female bases down

All righty, my Asura is pretty much done ^_^

What do y'all think?

Took approx 5 hours (so slow >_<), and of course I took a lot of liberty with body looks, no nekkid Asura references xD Not like I wanna look at a naked Asura much :P

Looking good, his earlobes look amazingly detailed. His shoulderblades look great too. He does come off a bit too blended/flattened though. I think putting in some sharp edges etc will make him stand out more

Thanks Tommy for the feedback
I didn't want to detail the body too much, since it's a base to work my future Asuras off of. The places I didn't want to put a lot of detail to was the front of the torso, seems like the most obvious place of differences for Asuras. =)

Once we know more about Asuras and more arts/screenshots are available, I might try to model one just for practice.

After a bit of a break because of RL things, I'm back to doing 3D stuffs.

Are you guys interested in non GW related 3D artsy stuff to be posted here too (to those I'm friends with on FB, I'm thinking of the Steampunk and the Asian [using it as my avatar here now] WIPs)?
