A: Marcus Fenix

I've always sorta liked the character, so I decided to base mine off him.
Not very far, still got plenty to go:

  • you're gonna have a hard time not making those two round plates look like boobs in pixels :) But good choice! Love Marcus. Brocus Fenix :)
  • Ok I think I'm finished... I'm pretty happy with it?
    Any comments/feedback?

    Yeah like I was worried... The round chestplates are very prominently boob-like. I would suggest making them not as obvious. Or shift the focus to the yellow markings, or just make them as not obvious as possible.

    The whole GOW universe I feel needs big chunky hands and feet, so your comparitively smaller hands (feet not that much but still kinda) is jarring against thte GOW thing. I guess it applies to the whole proportion thing - the bigger head makes the whole guy feel less buff and bulky.

    The shading is very well done :)

    Please make a 4x size version too, makes it not as squinty :)
  • Yeah I thought they still look flat and not too boob-like, can refine a bit later.
    I struggle with stylizing features when I draw people, but i can take a crack at the hands and legs...

    Here is the bigger one:
