A coloured version...just to be more clear....

Joel Hooks
01-11-2003, 02:03 AM
Can I use one of your "scrap" concepts when you finally choose? Your ideas are always so neat! :)

Keep it up, I look forward to this months entry from you OZ

OZ
01-11-2003, 02:07 AM
to lowdown: 4 SURE!! there are a lot of concepts that im working on...i think u will have a great degree of choice.....;)

WarpedMinds
01-11-2003, 02:09 AM
aww OZ that's like the race im thinking of :( only mine are more like monkeys :) gj on all the concepts tho

OZ
01-11-2003, 02:15 AM
to WarpedMinds: WhAT CAN I SAY...mmmh...i think that we all have a certain idea of Fantasy creatures....so iz easy to get out with similar ideas!.....My Hangly creatures camouflage themself using the bark like skin....just to jump over their victims!!
and yours?....

WarpedMinds
01-11-2003, 02:36 AM
what im thinking of right now is a group of hobbits who wandered out of the shire into the forest by Angmar and have been long forgotten and rarely seen, they'll be furry all over (like monkeys) and be quick in trees.. but i don't know if i can model it

OZ
01-11-2003, 02:51 AM
Sounds interesting!...well,looks like owr two ideas are not too similar at last! Hope u can model it in any way! Seeya:wavey:
ps: if i can help u in any way dont esitate to ask me.

Dirk_P_Ho
01-11-2003, 03:42 AM
Woah, great stuff OZ, both concepts are great, which one are you leaning towards?

chadlychoo
01-11-2003, 03:53 AM
I really love the Hangly creature! Good luck choosing, they're both great! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

CJ
01-11-2003, 03:57 AM

Gandalf
01-11-2003, 12:47 PM
The Hangly is cool!
Bellissimo il concept, anche per la mia creatura avevo pensato ad un aspetto simile :) Spero sceglierai di realizzare quello mi piacerebbe vederlo in 3d.

Goon
01-11-2003, 04:26 PM
OMFG!!!!:eek:
i thought the first one was cool but the hangly....Damn :bowdown:

How can a topic for a challenge get any better...........

When OZ joins it, that's how. :applause:

As expected your two concepts are excellent,really fitting for the lands of Middlearth. The hangly would be a real treat to see and eventually animated by someone with jschleifer's talent. I can see it now in camouflage crawling all around the trees,matching the bark.

You better look real careful,is it there on that tree...... Or on that one??? Yes a very nice creature.

CAALCUUM...........I think is just as impressive. That will be fantastic to see in full color and 3D..... And knowing you OZ there maybe even another wonderful concept coming soon,if we are lucky.

I'll be back again and again to see you at work OZ,it's soooo very fun to see you create.

I am sooo very tempted to join in on the fun.........I have ideas filling my head,this great topic is making me dizzy with ideas,should I join,or maybe next time,should I,no next challenge,should I???.............Now I sound like Gollum......


:)


................Great to see you in OZ....:beer: :)

OZ
01-11-2003, 10:26 PM
Before everything .......TNX TO U ALL!!!! WOW...it is so funny been here with u...CG..talking of strange creatures!!.....well...before reply to ur posts...Let me introduce the SHEERDHUN race.....a soldier of fortune people,that none have seen in face......where a war is,the SHEERDHUN are...(amazing poor english!!! YUHUUUU!!)......blush..............They fights not 4 money but 4 the enemy corpse...none knows what they do with all those bodies!! BRRRRR.......They looks like humans....but still,not there are confirmations of that.......

to jschleifer: Jesus!!!So, i have to a professional job...!!:eek:
Ok! The way of moving is similar to the goblins in MORIA...in the first movie (tfotr)?? there was some goblins climbing the giant columns of moria!!.....that kind of movement inspired me 4 the hangly race!! It will be a true honor if u will animate it!! Tnx!:bounce:

Remi
01-11-2003, 11:37 PM
I like the dangly guy too....also like the first concept...whichever you choose you've got some pressure on you now...hehe.....good luck buddy...i'm sure you'll do just fine...:thumbsup:

OZ
01-11-2003, 11:42 PM
to Remi: HE HE HE ..oh gosh...Tnx....is the sweetest pressure i felt! I really like to know people taste about my and other works.....is important to me to grow....there are so many thing to learn all around here!
;)

Virtuoso
01-11-2003, 11:58 PM
Hi again OZ....................I once again like the third concept,it too would be wonderful to see in 3D.

My thoughts so far would be....... Drumroll please.......:drumrock: :drumrock: :drumrock:

You have the CAALCUUM control the hanglyas it's pet........a leash for the Caalcuum to control the hangly and collar around the hangly. I know I ask too much,but the thoughts I have I must let you know,maybe you can use one of them in a way.

Keep going fantastic OZ,I'll be looking for more as always,your friend Virtuoso.............:applause: :beer:

WOOHOO! It's OZ the great, OZ the mighty, OZ THE TERRIBLE! Awesome to see your crazy ideas again mate, you're by far my favorite concept artist. I love all of your creatures so far, especially the hangly one, but I don't think they're insane enough... they aren't OZ enough :beer:

MilitantPenguin
01-12-2003, 06:54 AM
Nice concepts:thumbsup: i like the idea of having the hanging guys being controled by the soldier

but it look like we were both inspired by the same shot in LOTR. the movment of those goblins was the pure insperation for my spider/monkey crossbreed

cant waite to see some poly's from you though

Hi OZ,

You are the god of concets here. The last one just amazing. I'm very curious what will you choose to model.

eddy-3ddy
01-12-2003, 09:23 PM
You are hooked here for jobs. Man, you are the one that can say, I'm a master... (that means you, not me... When I read this over I little get confused about that)

bentllama
01-12-2003, 10:08 PM
Nice start OZ...I await more good visuals from you...

I think the tree clinger is a great concept...maybe give him longer arms and more proportions like a chimpanzee [without looking like a primate], have him built to climb trees...

:thumbsup: :beer:

OZ
01-12-2003, 10:12 PM

A watercolor draft study of the image mood and colours. Sometimes i use natural media paintings before start with cg....there is a more instinctive impact .......I "feel" better the scene i got only in my mind....ad i need to put it on paper,or making a clay model to feel it alive. After this process of mind cleanig...everything looks more clear,and i can start with CG,working faster and better.I believe that the a good and extensive"pre visualization" is the key of a well balanced model / image.

hey there OZ! I've followed your thread but not commented until now. I thought you had enough of 'replying back' to do already ;)

So the hangly comes to 3D................It certantly looks well in 3D as well.:thumbsup:

It will be a pleasure to see it develope OZ. The start or test I believe is a successful one. I look forward to the Hangly's growth in 3D.

But I am a bit selfish,I also still hope to see the other fine sketch to make it into 3D as well. Hopefully you will find the time to get at least one more in......The deadline gives us some extra time you know......:p ;)

I will join you and the others here soon......I have plans that I think you will like,one of them is the Bastard stompers,and there pals,the ones to stomp out the life of Fellahs Bastards. :p

Keep up-dating,I look forward to them very much........Great going,and it just starts.See you for now.......:wavey: :beer:

Virtuoso
01-26-2003, 05:41 PM
Well well,been busy eh OZ................Nice to see. :beer:

I like the teeth and gums very much.The uneveness of the teeth and gums are done great.I also like the raised gums around each tooth,that kind of extra intricate detail is what makes work like yours so very great.:thumbsup: ........Including that chipped one in the front,it all looks top notch.

The arm looks to be right on course with the concepts.Wirey,but muscled very well,nice work there as well. The torso too looks like it's there already,very "Gangly like"......It's great to see it come along,with textures soon to come it will be great to see. "Perhaps crawling and climbing along a tree in a scene eventually"...just to give you an extra idea is in the works?

You commented on the derbiles possibly being toooooo difficult for you to model..............Bah to that,you can do them blindfolded.So I hope perhaps they still can come into existence,if not in time for this challenge than afterwards in your private time.

Well my talented friend,another very nice and well done update,I'll see you after the next one,you know that.Wonderful progress once again.

Heya OZ.. very good, belivable creature, easily transferable

to fit the design.. but prove me wrong OZ:thumbsup: good work

MikaelPersson
01-27-2003, 04:59 PM
Looking good OZ. Really liked those gums and teeths. The body is coming along nicely too. But I think I'll have to agree with Mandrake. It might be a bit to human, how would it look if you made him straighter, with his torso as wide as the current stomach?

Well... I suppose if it turns out he's unable to finish the challenge, he could always jus put it in the WIP section... *crosses fingers* but maybe he'll get it done in time still. :D

Looks really good already, I think you're about twenty minutes away from an awesome image! Just let the renderer do what it's best at: form. The thing that defines form are shadows. Way too often I see great models spoiled by bad renders with too much light, highlights that are burned to white kill the form in that particular area and if the image's overall value range is too small the effect is the same as in bad photography, the image flattens out. Also bright parts tend to drive attention to itself and you probably don't want the viewer to look at the back of the skull or any other uninteresting parts. Contrast has the same effect, decrease the contrast if you don't want the viewer to look at something and increase it if you want them to do so.

I made a fast overpaint in Photoshop to show you what I'm talking about: http://www.timovihola.com/overpaints/oz_overpaint.jpg

OZ
02-18-2003, 12:49 PM
Iagree with ur position.Partially,but i agree.MMMh...putting correct lights 4 me,is a matter of "making the image express something".I mean....hard or soft lights on the same scene,change what the image tell to the viewer. In the case of Hangly creature....ur comments are correct.Because is supposed that the attention must fall on the character face or on the whole figure,and not on any secondary detalis...or background.
Ur overpaint looks very good and make clear what u mean..........i found it very userfull.
Im not sure what king of lights i will have 4 my final scene.
tnx 4 the help and suggestions!:)
