Love your piece and he vibe to it. Reminds me of the similar-looking dudes from Mad Max Fury Road - the ones in the swamps.

Here’s my final submission for the challenge: Knell.
Sadly the past month got a bit hectic for me, so i didn’t have the time to finish him properly. Nevertheless, thank you Flipped Normals for the challenge! It was a lot of fun, even if i didn’t get the results i wanted.
Sculpting and retopology was done in Blender, texturing in Substance Painter and rendering in Marmoset. Tri count was 12 2180, and i used 4K textures.
I learned a lot while working on him, especially about where my weaknesses lie. I now have a much clearer idea of where i need to improve my workflow. I’ll be sure to join future challenges and hopefully do a bit better next time.
Good luck to all and stay safe!

I have finally finised hopefully in Time
heres my dude (sorry about the lack of posing rigging did not want to work)
He is the Warlock of Sinew and Bone, the Cannibal, the Blood Boiler, the Chef of Bone Hunter of Men and Eater of Beasts, Father of Mutants, The Artist of Skin all titles to befit a god amongst men
The idea is that he’s a giant ogre who’s obsessed with the collection of blood, primarily ‘pure blood’ blood not effected by the world and cleaned for purity this is his power to control the wastelands of his world and his rag tag warband of blood crazed marauders

My final output for the challenge.
Malikus The Vain
- 81,160 polys
- 2 4k textures
- rendered in eevee
Malikus the vain, a warlock who drowns himself in luxuries of all sorts.
His obsession stems from his miserable background of being an orphan.
Being a poor orphan who had nothing, the seed of envy and greed slowly grew from within him slowly corrupting his mind. He grew cynic and ill tempered, he’‘d start talking to himself out of nowhere and speaking to shadows, one might think he’d gone mad.
Kids in the orphanage thought of the weird boy as nothing more than a target for their cruel pranks. They never knew what was happening, what was about to begin.
Malikus was attractive to the dark forces, a pure soul corrupted and stained by hatred, envy and greed was something absolutely delectable to them after all. Every time ill emotions would fester in Malikus’ mind, the shadows would speak, coaxing him to the dark.
The day came when Malikus reached his breaking point, a simple question was asked that day, “What do you desire?” to Malikus the answer was obvious, though he never answered back, the shadows understood what he wanted long before they asked, they just wanted to reaffirm.
The following night the orphanage was burning, but there were no screams, no pleads for help, just the sound of the raging flames, breaking glass, and falling debris.
The day after the fire a few guards went to investigate the aftermath, they were surprised to find a boy siting safe and sound in a wide clearing in the middle of the burnt orphanage, he was simply waiting, observing, thinking. When the guards questioned him about the fire, all he said was “Everything”.

This is my final submission for the Flipped Normals Warlock Challenge - Real Time Game Character!
2 souls has been released by this foolish boy who tried to read the forbidden book in order to try to become the strongest warlock.
Sadly he wasn’t strong enough and he lost his mind, now he will be cursed forever, condemned to a blind life of chaos and relentless power, driven and manipulated by the twin souls Urbi and Torbi.
