And now, a spartan (yeah...!)

ps and wacom, 1 hour, no refs. I drew that for the CGtalk daily sketch forum. It was really fun to do (wheeeee!!) and it's a good training.

thats more of a roman helmet design then a spartan helmet design

Alright, you can stop saying hax now...
Id watch your proportions, like the size of the mouth and the ears for example.

When I look at this pic, I have this wierd craving for pizza.

The ear feels out of place, and his face looks long. The average skull is about 8 1/2 inches high and 7 1/2 inches thick... something to keep in mind.

Roman legionaire more than a spartan (as stated before).

Kinda reminds me of Asterix, but this one looks like person who would ask: "Here's your pizza. You want onions with that?".

Haha serpentum, good idea. Make his head shorter, his nose rounder and throws some wings on his helm .

why would/should his helmet have wings...

Did someone say pizza with wings? I'll take that, and make them buffalo style. No onions though; I can't stomach them. Haha, how unorthodox it would be to add the onions after, wormskull.

The anatomy has been mentioned, so I'll say that you need to keep your values in mind. For example, on the nape of his neck, it looks like the rear of his helmet is behind his neck instead of in front of it because of the values used.

Not bad though for a quickie.

I like your shading and light effects, I find those the hardest to do on quick drawings.
Good job btw.

i live in buffalo :D wings are great.


well its better than i can do, buttttt..... the back of the helmet should wrap around his neck, not just stop before it. and theres all that extra space between the very right side of the neck part and his actual neck....

EDIT: when i actually read ogres post i realized how much of a putz i am... hah sorry im just restating ogre

:P
