NO MORE HEROES FOR THE MOMENT THANK YOU
Hello, I'm currently working on hero designs for a future project. I want to custom model the heroes myself as I have a few ideas for (epic) spells and the like that will incorporate animations (much like the blademaster's whirlwind), as well as the fact that they will suit the theme better. Before I get started on the project tho I want to have all the models done for a few reasons -
1. I will be modelling in GMAX and then once all complete I will be animating them all within the milkshape 30 day trial (I want to do it this way because it also works as a good deadline for completion, but if I need a bit more time I will just buy it.)
2. I want to recruit a jasser to help me with the map, but I see no point in recruiting someone just to have them wait and wait for me to finish the models. I'd rather be fully prepared before I drag someone into my world.
MAP INFO:
Genre: I haven't actually decided the map genre as of yet... I'm tossing up between ideas for a team pvp style map or a co-op survival (yeah I know big difference).... but I'd rather wait til I'm ready to recruit a jasser and then see what they prefer. It doesn't really matter at this point because the models can be used in both instances.
Theme: The theme will be revolving around Archangels against Demons, with an anime-styled approach. What I mean by that is that I want the heroes to be of a rather eccentric and epic scale, with their abilities tied tightly to their theme or weapon of choice (or of course both).
What I need from you right now:
Right now I'm scrounging for concept ideas for the heroes and would really like other peoples inputs.... if you've seen a few anime's in your time then you'd surely know what could make a good hero.. or even better perhaps there is a hero concept you always wanted to see. Here's a bit of a template for you to follow if you'd like to help out -
Template:
Allegiance: is this hero on the angel or the demon side?
Theme: what is the hero's main theme? eg. Is he an archangel with lightning-based attacks? or possibly a demon of a wild and beast like nature?
Weapon: What kind of weapon does the hero wield? I'm looking mostly for oldschool melee and ranged weapons (swords and bows... not colt m4a1's and grenade launchers) although being of an anime nature I'm not going to completely overlook something like an Angelic Pulse Rifle pictures are welcome for reference, but I don't exactly want anything ripped 100% from a real anime.... I plan to design these myself.
Appearance: Is there any defining features of your hero's appearance? Possibly he might be a demon with a dog's head or a Pharaoh-themed archangel. Again, pictures are welcome
Abilities: Tying in with it's theme and weapon, what kind of ability may this hero have?
.....ofcourse you can give more info on things like it's name and history if you want to or even give proper abilitie examples... this is all a bit of fun.
Here's an example of one I prepared earlier, with a concept sketch I had drawn in GIMP -
Allegiance: Demonic
Theme: This hero is all about raw power - pure physical strength and speed. He is of a wild nature and this is shown through his rash abilities.
Weapon: He wields dual katana's of rather ordinary appearance. This blades have no special power about them whatsoever.
Appearance: The hero has wild black hair and eyes to match his nature. He is of a slim muscular build and wears no top or armour. His left arm is of demonic appearance, giving a glimpse of his true form.
Abilities: This hero is all about speed and power. His abilities revolve around moves like charges, multiple and critical hits and vibration waves shot from the swing of his blade. I have no goddamn idea about his ulti atm lol... this character is open for alot of possibilties.
....ofcourse like I said you can go into more detail then that (and I would appreciate it if you did) as it would make it easier for me to see your vision and how it can fit in with my own. Thanks!
