Project "amphibia" - stage 01

#29

Modified the shape plus new additions as well …

#30

More changes … again :expressionless: … i’m not sure whether that shape might need a few more tweaks … or maybe i’ll just leave it the way it is …

Anyways … extra objects added to complete that section …
As i proceed with each element … i’m also experimenting with details side by side …

#31

Onto the next section(s) …

#32

wow,awesome,great work! i’m following this,as a beginner,it helps me a lot

#33

i’m very glad it’s helping you Jony!

Next update coming soon … gonna be a long weekend! :scream:

#34

Facing a major block … i’m totally blank as to how i can make this interesting …

However … i’m taking it slow … trying to figure out ways to balance this section and not get pulled into heavy detailing.

The face is really important … even though that’s a small part, it should be strong enough to grab attention.

So, in this new update, i’ve done away with the previous element(s) …
this should now give me some direction …

back to experimenting!

#35

Getting somewhere …

#36

Before i move ahead … here are the processes from stage 23 … split into three parts.

#37

Cut outs here and there …

Trying to experiment with flow …

#38

Things are slowly coming together … although it took nearly a day to figure out what could be worked out… Which included shutting down my pc … going out for a long walk …

Then experimented with a few shapes … had to redo a lot … delete … and finally came down to this …

#39

More shading…after which i can proceed with details

#40

Trying to wrap up the top section …
once this is done … smaller areas will be targeted … and as mentioned before … details.

#41

Slow progress … but need to get things right …

I’m quite satisfied with the form and highlights … however … not too happy with the overdose of blue
(top surface) :\ …

time for some color tweaks!

#42

Toned down the blue … added few details …

More soon!

#43

Been really busy past couple of days :open_mouth:

Here’s a rough concept of various parts …

#44

Things are going to get tough as i progress … but well worth it … i hope O_O

Refinements …

#45

Lot of work pressure ; however … I’ve been experimenting a little during lunch breaks …

Started with the next section …

#46

Back to 3dsmax for some rough modeling and light setup …

This will help me with the overall form and shading. Later on, extra objects will be added to break the smooth flow.

#47

Getting somewhere …

#48

Playing around with few elements to see what works …
