This is a fur creature that has been enhanced to be a killing machine with Razor teeth and claws

Just starting the modeling and thinking of the most interesting mechanical legs for this thing.

[Tremoside]

Hello,

Your creature's like a beast!!! Good idea!
Perhaps i can can give you e few advice for the perfect work.
Check an anathomical book for the knees and elbows, it's a good way to translate biological knowledge into mechanical solutions.
If you have more freetime you can draw again his junctions, and
be careful man, fur is heavy thing...

Full speed ahead! Good luck!

[JCG]

Good characterization! No doubt it's a killer and the scariest thing is that it seems that he (she?) really enjoys its job!

Here some front legs... Just trying to keep up with these profesional

[NRG420]

Thanx for the support Tremoside I have been working with fur for about a year now and I had to pull my hairs out a many a times. I don't know much about mechanical engineering so I will just make what I think looks cool. I will check out your stuff and get back to you

[Tremoside]

Killer legs:bounce:

so sweet are they, friendly things.
i don't wanna meet him/her by night.

especially I like his claws.:buttrock:

Here is some more work on the legs and still trying to keep it relatively realistic

[NRG420]

Sorry about not making up a crazy story for this creature but I will make one by the end of this thing ... I think.:surprised

[mosconariz]

Well, there aren't so smilar :D

I think you should work more with your muscles, except of that, :thumbsup:

[NRG420]

I wasn't going to put to much detail in the skin and muscles because I'm going to cover it with fairly long Hair/Fur so the basic over all shape of the muscles should be enough.:hmm:

Modeling almost done. I want to work on its mouth a little more I think the legs came out fairly good whatta ya say?

Starting some texturing and fur on this thing I will probably use a more realistic fur in the end but here is a start.

working on a texture that is similar to the metal on the T-X but you never know. I hope I get something good.

Here is some progress on the metal and more work on the fur.

:scream:
This is the first monster that makes me
running like hell laughing LOL!!
Very crazy, looking for more on this!


:thumbsup:

[number9]

I like this one! I like that it has a sense of humour in it.
It reminds me of the honeypuff monster:)

what do you think? Should I go for naturally from this world or should I go for naturally out of this world? Please Let me know cause i like out of this world.

[Tremoside]

WWWHOOOA!:buttrock: IMPRESSIVE!

that head...those claws.

KEEP IT UP!!!!!!!

I think the more colorful version is better:thumbsup:

[Ravendsg]

Nice use of fur. Maybe you could find spots to have variation of length of hair. And also colors. Find a good mix of colors to play around with. Can have a look at some furry creatures in nature. Like some species of monkeys which have colorful faces. And can also reference them or other animals for the hair length variety. Have some extremely long hairs too maybe?? Also check out tigers and lions too? Cats are great also. See how the eyes are being emphasized in nature, by furs.

Overall cool model, and great job in progress!! :buttrock:

Doesn't this thing remind you of a Critter from that old school movie.Didn't mean it though.

This is probably the texture that I will Keep.It seems to fit the creature good.Critics if you think otherwise.

[Ravendsg]

COOL!!!! Really looking great now! The head especially! I would suggest some dirtying though. He looks abit clean for a beast hehe Still really nice fur!! :buttrock:

[EmpY]

:bounce:
Your WIP is really something else!!!
Totaly cool. Keep it going, and wild!!!!!!
I'll watch your progress.

Im setting up a scene that is natural and I hope to make realistic as possible

[Tremoside]

Hi NRG420,

This fur texture is WWWOOOOOWWWWa:buttrock:

but on the other side.... environment is a bit confused.

Heres an update school is keeping me busy

The fur in this one seems to be good enough for now and testing the lighting

Haven't posted in a while doesn't mean my brain ain't working. The Lamb to the slaughter is being created for RAZOR

[Russo]

hahaah that´s what is "humorous way" to work.. keep going! :)

I found a better looking fur for the Razor. I like it but the coloring is off so I will fix that what do you think.

Here is my scene, it is almost done. 5 days left and good luck to you all! Fur is a bit to hard core for my computer. but it looks so cool!

Here is the final renders. A Killing machine and his meal to be. Good luck to everybody!!
