Berserk/Vagabond in 3D

For years I've been wanting to make an animated short concerning Guts vs Apostles/God Hand or just a bunch of Daka etc, I havent decided yet what he's supposed to fight, but so far I know i'll be making guts. So right now im looking for good modeling reference of Guts. Does anyone got model sheets or detailed images on how his armor looks up close or how the canon works etc. Either its gonna be the berserker armor or the one he had before that. So many things to choose from and well frankly its hard. I wanna make a good scene/characters so thats why I wanna hear what you guys think? What would you like to see? What battle would totally blow your socks off? Should he wear the berserker armor? you get the point.

Enlighten me :ganishka:


ups: thx for putting the topic in the right place :guts:

Guts in 3d, eh? Sounds like a great idea! :guts:

I don't know of any modeling sheets besides what Miura drew for the animators back when the anime was being done (I don't have those). Other than that I just suggest looking at Guts from various angles in the manga.

Good luck :serpico:
 
Re: Berserk in Maya?

thx CnC I already got a folder filled up with pics from the Manga and google, I guess its sufficient but I guess I could always use some more.

Hehehe, I think it'd be a tad much for a first try to be honest, I was just joking about it. :guts: The Urumi are the weapons he uses as a last resort in his fight against Guts in volume 9. They're comprised of long and supple strips of razorsharp metal. Here are some pictures of them: 01, 02, 03.

The Berserk Visual and Story file has nude front, back, side characters models of Guts, Casca, Puck, and Zodd done for the Dreamcast game. It also has a lot of different models of Guts' head from different angles, and some for Casca and Puck.

awesome though is it something I need to buy? If possible can anyone scan those images? Or toss in a link where I can buy :???:
 
Re: Berserk in Maya?

A guy in Deviantart has already done a damn good 3d model Guts with something something million polygons. My only gripe is the face/hair, but other than that, not a bad attempt

Obviously you want to use manga and actual art from Miura to get a more "accurate" detailing, but imo that's a fairly good 3d reference.

The texturing on the above model is what really makes it stand out. Not really digging that hair though :void:

Re: Berserk in Maya?

Just so ya know, these appear to be sketches from the artist who did character designs for the anime. It's his impression of Guts, not Miura's work. Though, I could be wrong.

not bad at all, the texturing is pretty darn good but yea the head and hair isn't really guts IMO nonetheless its something I can use.

aye thx for the heads up, but I can use it all :ganishka:



so far I'm thinking of making him with the berserker armor, seen to many versions now with the post berserker armor
+ would be pretty cool to make the beast. Stay tuned for some WIP's

I agree with Walter on the deviant art model. Its texturing really makes it stand out.

Those are from the media blasters dvd extras, I believe.

Yea I colored it, but the brilliance was Miura's (I just colored in between the lines).

I like where this is going. Only thing that looks really off is the ears. Good start, tho. :guts:

Yes, they are. You aren't wrong.

The name of the character designer is Masami Suda.
 
Re: Berserk in Maya?

time for some updates.. i took the liberty to make some changes of my own and not following the picture 100% and I looked at a ton of zodd pictures :zodd: so ended up with this so far:




edit: for some weird reason I couldnt see the pics.. so uploaded them again :???: :puck:

next up his hair..
