I am going to run both categories again. However, I may not be able to finish the Image because of deadline difference. Have fun!

Hey Juraj, nice to see you in the challenge!! and nice initial concepts! :D Good luck and looking forward on your progress. Cheers mate :beer:

[sasquatch70]

I think you should go with #2. All I can think of is the phrase "I can't quit you" LOL

Good stuff!

sketchy brainy stretchy 03 - initial concept of human character

[JurajMolcak]

hey, some feedback

@Slav - thanx, I probably go with something funny I am going to rethink the outlenders idea in following days. Thanx!

@Squibbit - some may find it sexy as well. Now I am not sure if you do like the scaryness, lol

@Ferx - hey buddy, nice to see you too! Have a good time!

@sasquatch70 - Yeah #2 is fun but it should be based on Giger's Aliens to have it clear, and I probably can't and mostly don't want to do it because of this issue. Thanx anyway...

Lifter Joe - prefinal model.
So, I am going to be off the challenge for a while, need to focus on regular projects. Hope to finish this on time. Next step - alien flower model. Crits and Cheers are welcome.

You absolutely must do the leashed xenomorph, that is one of the funniest things I have ever seen

[JurajMolcak]

howdy folks!

@ Spin99 - Thank you!

@ JackZhang - hello mate! Yeah, Journey was fun, lot's of changes from that time anyway. Gonna check out your entry for sure. From what I already saw, you 're doing great as always!

@ KOryH - :bowdown: Welcome on board. Thanks for your feedback!

@ RedThirteen - hey 13! Glad you like the stuff so far.

@ Korda - you know what, I am really thinking about that concept. However I do focus on animation entry where I want to do my own work based on my own characters. Bud the xenomorph concept should be funny for the still for sure. Maybe I don't like how flat the joke is, know what I mean. You see, you smile, turn page... Maybe to present it not so exposed, so the xenomorph is going to be secondary but important actor. Gonna think about it... Thanks for nice words.

[JurajMolcak]

Howdy folks!

For those enjoyed my entry - feel free to check out my animation entry based on this idea, since I am not going to continue with image category for this time. The deadline is just freaking crazy :deal:

Thanks for all your comments! Have fun and good luck!

[Spin99]

Hey Juraj,

Pity there won't be an image I'll check on the vid entry.
Just wanted to ask if you don't mind, how you get the nice wires on your renders?
Also are you using XSI for that?

If I capture with Flipbook I always get not very nice non-antialiased lines.
Do you comp the wires in or just use a shader?

Would love to find out how you do it :D
