Beast of Burden - Beastie - NeilyB

#1

Well guys, you know when you have a great idea, you work for many hours without a clue what you are doing and then you sit back and say “ARGHHHHHHHHHHH!”…thats what I did…but as I don’t have much time this will have to do…needs some obvious tweeking and a few decals, harnesses etc…
It’s a kind of biomechanical purpose bred beast of burden (BP4B)…

#2

very cool concept! You can add details now, and remove that damn wiewpoint character :wink: keep it up!

#3

Barbie must be so jealous that Ken gets this awsome steed, and she has to settle for that plasticy horse. :stuck_out_tongue:

I agree with Mr. Blanché. The beast is brilliant. Very vell done. I love the design, the modelling, everything… except that guy.

Great work! :smiley:

#4

Sorry, Sorry, Sorry…:shame:

Mr Z. Y. Gote is there purely to show the seating arrangment isn’t some badly modelled backplate and I haven’t got a rider for him yet (have to do my portfolio and probably wont have time). I will in future remove him.
Details yeh…er…that’s the hard bit right…? I shall see what I can do, not totally happy with him…but this is my first challenge and the comments are appreciated! Especially form you guru’s of 3D!!

#5

I didn’t really understood your concept? It looks like a beast dead for about a million years!

Tell us more about this! BTW! What app do U use! I know that Mr. Z.Y.GOATIE is included in C4D! Any other app?

#6

what’s this? a mr. Z.Y.Gote??? interesting…

#7

'Tis a beast from the pits of death itself, where men are interbred to produce slaves and beasts are created from the totured minds of those slaves. Cruel this may be, but the beasts are strong and their part mechanical build makes them tireless. Only once has a beast fallen…felled by the sword of Barbie, Barbie the Warrior princess on her endless search for Ken the Barbarian…

#8

Well after much consideration I kind of scrapped the first design. It sucked…no amount of repairing could make it better…for me anyway…so here is Bestie MkII…without Ken…or Barbie…

#9

From the side:

Does anyone know a good tut on doing animal feet…just ignore my temporary ones…please!

#10

Now we’re cooking with cooky things! Very nice indeed. :thumbsup:

What happened to those funky bionic back legs? I quite liked those.

I actually don’t think you need much of a tute on feet. They look great to me. A bit blocky around the start of the toes, but very good otherwise.

More! :smiley:

#11

Decided on a hoof type foot, this is a sort of pit pony after all. The carts will need a bit of work to make them look aged…etc…this is also my first real attempt at muscle definition…can’t you tell…

#12

Hey, those other feet were great! I’m not so sure about these hooves.

Still, it’s looking good. Muscles are coming along great.

#13

Well, those bionic back legs just didn’t fit…trust me I tried! I will save them for when I build a completely bionic figure…as for the feet…AWWWWWW…aza cut 'em off now…maybe I could have worked on them…maybe I will…can we have till September?

#14

Let me check my diary… hmmmm… yep, that’s fine. September it is! Quick glance at moderators shaking their heads Um… perhaps it would be bext to squeeze it into the current deadline.:smiley:

#15

Time is running out…ticktocktick…
So, I have succesfully transplanted old legs onto new, I will make some kind of scar or cut to make it all look transplanted I think…

#16

Much better! (Well, I think anyway).

Hey, i’ve noticed this is starting to turn into a NeilyB vs. Erilaz thread.
Anybody else care to contribute commentation to this great model? :shrug:

#17

Well, it’s 1:39 on my watch…I reckon time to hit the sack…well, now that the news of XL8 has died down a bit…

ight, night…

#18

I am definately going to look for my bed now…

#19

Very good indeedy! The chains are really solid-looking. I’m not sure about that ridge above the shoulder though. Looks a bit odd.

Fantastic Work NeilyB.:thumbsup:

#20

Yeh I know but at 4am I had kind of run out of ideas…I think I will attach rings to each link of the chain running up the back…then loop them into the harness…maybe a couple of buckles…some more details…(which is always a big problem for me!)
