Creature: Aliens inspired - D-3

[Neeno]

great start on the model.. nice clean wire.. cannot wait to see zbursh deformations.. all thes best. see you soon

[comic-craig]

I think its a great start. It seems to be lacking detail/refinement. Since it looks so similiar to Gieger's work- I can't help but compare- and thinking that this looks not on the same level. But maybe a more refined verision is coming? Anyways- I like it, and I will try to appreciate it for being its own thing. I don't think you should add detail for detail's sake.

Good Job
Craig

Neeno - thanks dude.. i still working on this... hehehe the Zbrush coming soon man.. thanks!!

comic_craig - thanks man.. but this is a wip, and this post is just the frist hours of modeling.. i you try to compare a box primitive to a giger-aliens is insane. another think is i´m not making a aliens based exactle like the giger-aliens.. this is my version of aliens.. a technical point is about the zbrush.. i will use displacement maps to make inumeral details.. becouse the super hirez mesh is old-technics... hehehe

just don´t compare ok.. giger is giger and he have your credit to create the aliens... but thi´s another version of aliens.. hehehe


a litle update..
Thanks for all

I figured you were not done- and I look forward to seeing it more realized. Its looking great so far. That said- sorry, but if you list it as "inspired on aliens" and it looks like giger-esque- I think its silly to think the comparison will not come up. This was my entire point- people will compare it to giger even if you don't want them to. That said- I agree that its looking super sweet and is starting to stand up to such comparisons. I agree I spoke to soon about the details- just giving my input and I hope to encourage.

Is the final going to look like naked human flesh? its really creepy- which is good for a character like this.

Good luck
Craig

Another version of aliens?

Like... if the Roger Corman version of Alien was ever made?

Or like those low budget CG crapfests that populate Scifi DVD shelves everywhere?

JamesMarshall - hehehe you caught me.. I hope the roger doesn't discover I showed the model before the film to be produced hehehee:bounce:

thanks by the coments..

[comic-craig]

Never was upset- I gotta put these silly emoticoms in- Apparently I sound like a raging jerk- don't mean to. All is good- look- I'm smiling.

Its been awhile- but I know what its like to have to do the real work and set aside the fun projects. It looks like you are having fun- and the design is becoming more finalized. Keep up the good work and finish this model already!


Good job
Craig

Woa cool model, I like the detils, but I think he is too smooth:) crease him a little to make him more "dramatic" :) good job till now

[elindie]

you sir, are my hero

Very nice :) It botheres me a bit that the jaws are angled as if the mouth is closed, but its actually open. Its almost designet to not even be able to close its mouth - the corner of the mouth is huge. Some more attention could be put at that area to make the mouth look more 'functional'
As an interesting variation you could try and make some of the teeth larger than others (fangs maybe, but not too exaggerated)
If you want to distance yourself from the Giger design i think you could design the chest more differently from his. The head seems bulky and strong so maybe the chest should be more "massive" (tone down the ribs) and give it more a real 'chest'.
Oh and dont fall for the temptation to add extrusions from the back - thats a dead giveaway of a Giger alien ;)

Just crazy suggestions. :) keep it up man
