Wanted to enter last challenge, but kept it under wraps cuz I was worried I wouldn't finish. Turns out it was even worse; other than the original sketch... I didn't even get started.
Life's rough so to make sure I make time to create, I am officially sayin'... I'm in.
Now, have a model I need to make for a short that's been brewing lately in my head but, internal juices are craving something like ... oh what's it called? Klandathu, the movie with the bug world... Starship Troopers! lol got it.
Ok, don't know 'what' yet, but I will tomorow.

Started with a sphere and after pullin' verts and stuff, got this...

Took a side view into Painter and came up with the first draft.

Took it into Blender and started blocking the shape using the bg image.

Nice work so far .Are you going to block it out in blender then
finish it in zbrush

No idea yet Pugman. That's usually what I do for just a render. I'm just free-flowing on this one. Might even change it all before the deadline. I'm trying to get used to using Blender. I'm just 'riding the lightning' for now (for any metalheads out there

)

Blocking in the basic shape. Needs a tail. Each color is a different object; for setting up the pose.

Still have no final image of what I want; just playing with variety. Time will set me straight.

Is he giant or small? Your creatures always have your own style.

Large. A bug type on a Earth-like planet. Too many things on my plate so just ran out of time.

No Pug, it's fine. Let's stick to the schedule.

I voted for your work of art, it's really good even though it wasn't finished.

Dragneye · Post by **Dragneye** » 03 Apr 2013, 16:38

Thank you Unavailableartist.

(Posts from here on down NOT to be used for challenge)

Here's a first pass trying to define color scheme...

Looks like will lose a lot of detail if I go dark.

Still working on that bug? U going to do the speed modeling?

Dark color suits it better IMO.
