That_Spook Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 saw the idea and now i have so much faith in you... might convince me to actually start playing nekros again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arch111 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Soo. I had two models. One a clear Anubis design, one a demonic design. Version 2 looks good from the front, terrible from the side. Version 4 looks good from, well all sides, but lacks the look from v2. I did a mashup. The only thing I kept from 2 was the important geometry of ears and snout, and I must say I think I can make this work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raydog Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 It might be best to just show it more on a 3 quarter angle. That way it's easier to see if the shapes are working from a front and side, or side and back perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raydog Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I actually like the Anubis looking one a bit more. I think if you take out the emissive around where the eye is supposed to be and just make it like a socket or a cavity, and put the emissives somewhere else then it would be less obvious that they're supposed to be eyes. An example would be Chroma's Amaru helmet, where you've got these big round sockets but no emissives, so it leads your eye somewhere else. I also had an idea when I saw your paintover of the front. What if you somehow combine the look of the Anubis head with some machine looking thing. The first thing that came to mind is those hot rod engines where you've got these long exhaust pipes on the side almost like a cathedral organ. It would be cool if it blows a bit of smoke too, maybe a bit of fire. The pipes would be the ears then the center of the head would be the engine, the nose would be like the gas cap. In a way I realize this is not too far off from the idea of rhino's vanguard helmet, just differently shaped and the bacon things are not exhaust pipes.

Nomicakes Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Remember also that DE prefers helmet designs that avoid having eyes, for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavelord Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hi, i also think you should remove the semblance of eyes, can you put a picture from the side?, otherwise it is starting to look warframy weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VoidPunch Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I'm liking the new "god-theme" version, interested to see where that goes. I honestly didn't like the anubis helmet idea but thats just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seb-ZA Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I want this. I shall buy this. I shall place it upon my Nekros, and I shall call him Nekrobis... Anunekros ... Nekronubis... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oranji Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I like this. It doesn't look like a straight copy of the usual anubis head but looks unique enough for warframe. You know like when they say, so similar yet so different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hydrogase Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 personally i think the orginial helm art you made looks better and it seems like it would fit i the warframe theme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arch111 Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 Did I prove Anubis can work or that it in fact needs a different look? The original head WILL still read jackal though. But if the egyptian theme is too much for it, then I will chabge it to better reflect the first version and the v5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_malaya_ Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) Needs more abstraction for it to truly fit in Warframe imo. I like the Anubis idea, but I find the designs to be too literal a translation of your theme. My suggestion is keep the silhouette and play with it a bit more, but avoid placing eyes and mouth-like creases where they are typically found, if at all. Instead, maybe study a bit of Egyptian art and patterns and see if you can translate that into your sculpting Warframe style detail. How about having just one glowing eye hole at the tip of the nose?

Seb-ZA Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) In the top picture, if you focus just on the centre helmet and let the two on the sides "fade" out .. it almost looks like he's doing this: Edited January 13, 2016 by Kenboushou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raydog Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I think tapering the snout would make it look less like one and probably balance it with the protrusion in the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
