Just stopped by and checked your stuff. I like the texturing in the armor here, looks great.
If you don't do it already I suggest you'd just make a fast sketch before firing away in the 3d app, to get a better picture beforehand of where to put the weight in characters. When the weight is all even or modelled from real-world stuff it just doesn't feel interesting (well, my opinion). But anyhow that's usually what makes 3d graphics in games interesting, because characters are usually modelled with nonhuman weight aspects in muscles or just mass (for ex. armors or such as in this picture). Give it a thought if you haven't already, you've made lots of progress on the modelling part. I think the helmet should have a bit mightier look to get that majestic feeling into him.

I sometimes do a quick sketch with the tablet to get an idea of what I'm doing but when I do the modeling I often find ways of improving on parts of the character at the cost of betraying the sketch because the 3d medium letts me explore allot of things that can't be explored when sketching.
So I find doing a sketch to be a good starting point for some of the reasons you meantioned like where to put weight and whatnot but after that the modeling phase sort of takes over and the final render sometimes ends up quite different from the sketch.
Thanks for the long post, really got me thinking about my technique actaully.

Yeah, I know the feel
Try explaining 3d to the traditionals and they haven't got a clue what you're talking about. Anyhow, keep up the good work.
