Noioiy Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 The colors you used looks really fitting imo. Maybe you can show some other color combinations of your choice? I admire the design. It looks amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syncrasis Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Sunk some time into really trying to get an Excal feel out of the color blocking. Second image is photoshopped for more default Excal colors. I also toyed with the silhouette of the leading edge to get something a little more interesting than the solid line I had before. Struggling a little with the "ear" bits, might end up removing them in favor of some smaller shapes on the main piece in that area. Now I'm gonna finish up the high poly sculpt since the colors are starting to work! Thanks for your support you guys!! And feel free to crit... especially with the color blocking. By the way, this is the high poly sculpting stage... I can't quickly change the colors themselves except in photoshop (or at least I don't know how to in Zbrush). After I make my low poly version, and bake on my maps, that's when I'll be able to fool around in TennoGen and quickly bust out nicer color schemes. This orange and green is just something I kind of picked by random haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazingcobalt Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Pls give tips on how to make such pretty Tenno things :c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)AllEyezOnThee Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) +1 I'd scrap the ears and put in a type of smooth yet edged cover piece (melding with the style of the helmet) starting from the chin (or where the three spots of channeling lights are) and make it go all the way to the back of the neck. Slightly getting wider as it goes towards the back, and giving it a sharp or jagged finish to match the other "points" in the helm. Or Take the ears out and add a smoother finish with some added peices or scales Basically what I'm saying, no ears. Haha - besides I think DE tries to avoid human facial features to an extent. Holes as ears? Sure. Actual detailed human ears? Mm nay Edited November 21, 2015 by (PS4)lNoctus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syncrasis Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 Thanks for the feedback, yeah I went ahead and took off the ear things. They were never meant to resemble ears but I just couldn't figure out what I wanted out of them. The old design just had too many details that didn't contribute to the flow of the design, so I've done a paintover of what I'd like to do with the piece tomorrow. I'm waaay happier, hopefully I can finish it nice and quick now. I want to get as many of these done as I can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebisis Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 The replacement of the "ears" with tubes into the base of the skull is genius, that really brought it together. This is so much more my style than any of the existing Excalibur helms, I look forward to buying this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamescell Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I think I actually like the first design better than the current remodel- it just had overly complex/mixed color layers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrototypeArchaic Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 You might want to add some width to the front of the helm around the "cheeks" of the helmet. As it stands the comments above apply. It feels a bit too busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syncrasis Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) My Loki Prime color scheme haha Default Excal colors. And my wires, I came in just under the triangle limit of 3k. Could probably optimize a little more As for the name, I was doing research and Artorius really fits him I think. It's one of the (less favored) theories for where the King Arthur's name originates from, and directly translate to "plowman" from Latin which makes me immediately imagine him plowing snow with his face Also considering Lamorak and Logres, both also found in King Arthur stories. Lemme know what you think. Edited November 27, 2015 by Syncrasis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazingcobalt Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 This is easily my favorite Excal helmet. Although I've already said that before. Do you have plans for Mag/Volt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gosh that's a huge compliment, thank you!! The Polycount contest is ending in the next few days, so I won't have time to do more helmets for this round anyway. I'd love to do more in the future though... definitely will be doing a Nekros at some point heh heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though after this experience, I'm definitely going to work on the sketch a lot more first. lol (yeah it's not really pope-y in any way, it's just tall) After seeing everyone else's Excal helmets... this helmet probs won't make it to the top 3, but I had fun and learned a lot along the way. Here's my final image: Thank you guys for all your feedback! [edit] I'm gonna mess around today and see if I can rework some tech/hard surface areas into more excal-looking shapes, and simplify a few areas Edited November 28, 2015 by Syncrasis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
