Looks interesting so far man, can't wait to see how you tackle the robes, though it may have been easier to use High Elf Archer legs...

Looks cool – I especially like the full cowl you've made.

thanks, i plan on cleaning up the lower trim on the hood....and extending the shoulder part of the robe out a little more....he is more tech guard so no extremly visible bionics

ok robe is mostly there. im gonna let it dry, then fix the chest so the cowl overlaps, then file and give more depth to the robe

Tech guard are still quite bionicised... But you can just explain that it's hidden under the robe.

Progress is looking good man, can't wait to see him finished.

ive actually re done him so he fits with my redeemers a little better. took off the long robe and im replacing it with rolls of purity scrolls. though i di re-do the cowl so it looks neater. though if anyone has suggestions for robes id listen..atm mine are always to thick and make the model look strange

I would say build up the general shape you want with green stuff, then grab some procreate (GS will do however), use your hobby knife (or a round pen) and roll it flat on a wet surface. Cut out the shape required (look at the model and imagine the general shape of the robe flat), then wrap it around the model, handling it as little as possible to keep it smooth.

ill try it with GS as i dont want to waste my ProCreate....it takes weeks to get it down here and its expensive as hell....yea its worth it, but i dont wanna waste it

Looks pretty good man. You did rather well with the hood! Shoulders look a bit bulky, but that'll be the armour, I'd presume... So when's he gonna get a base? :)

he is on a base, havent picked the flock yet....prolly gonna use diamond plate...
