Riddick Intital Concepts

Trying to grasp the structure of his body is difficult, mainly because exaggeration is needed. With these concepts i found an idea pretty quickly but it wasnt exaggerated enough and didnt really capture the monotone mood and build of Riddick. I then tried to incorporate the actually main Buzz character, but the only reason you can tell its buzz is because of the head, and in the game, he is the only character that actually looks like that so this idea needs to be moved on really.

These ideas started taking form as i noticed that quite alot of the character in Buzz had really thin bodies with big heads, a much more childish approach to anatomy which reflects the demographic completely. The problem i had with these is that it only looks like Riddick through the goggles and the blades. The problem with the blades is that they could be classed as offensive material for a family game as they are pretty fierce looking weapons. 

The body at the top is pretty cool i thought mainly because its so over exaggerated, but i think this is why it doesnt work, because its too exaggerated, but atleast this gives me an idea of how far i can go with it. Similarily with the faces, quite of few of them just make him looks like a batman wannabe, which is completely away from the design of Buzz.

The next step would be to exaggerate the body enough to capture how hench his body actually is.
