Races of Middle Earth - character - Agent D

#37

Well, small updates again. I’m having trouble keeping concentrated on it, but hopefully I’ll be able to sit down and really work on it soon. The deadline doesn’t seem so far away now… :wink:

#38

Another shot. What I want to do this weekend: Work on proportions, tweak the arms and hands, add a tail.

#39

cool … imaginative … I like it … the way it’s progressing, it is in danger of becoming a spider tho …

#40

Nice D, I like it. However i will agree with the last post it is in danger of becoming a spider. How about maybe Legs on the back, instead of arm like limbs. And/or stretch the body out. IT is kind short, makes it look very spider like with their little round bodys. I like it though. Keep it up!

#41

I’ve managed to work on it a bit tonight, and I’ve started to add new back legs and modify the torso, as well as various other tweaks. I also put the tail on it, which helps it look a lot less spider-like.

#42

agent d! that looks great man, i love the pos so much, and that tail adds so much…i can see this critter lurking in a cave ready to eat a poor wittle hobbit!

aces!

#43

Ah ha! Very nice. I like that look alot! No more spider like appearance. A distinct look to him. Good pose as well. Keep it up, I want to see more!

AAO!

#44

Agent D!!..this pose looks much better and more natural for the character… :thumbsup: …Will he be a creature with matieral possesions and trinkets or a truely free spirted animal with no need for such things?? :)… Keep up the good work!!

:wavey:

KingMob: Maybe I should model a hobbit and have the creature biting it’s head off in the final image… :twisted: :wink:

AgentX: AAO tomorrow night!

Fetus23: I am considering giving it a crudely modified human weapon, as well as some sort of ornamentation such as a metal collar or arm bands, but I’m not sure yet. I’ll try to finish modelling and texturing it before I worry about that. Someone also recommended that I give the creature tattoos, which might look cool.

#46

… very nice progress … lost the spider element … I love the eye … it’s entrancing and scary at the same time … the perfect trap … :surprised

#47

Nice stuff agent, but i needs more details :), get to work :wip:

#48

Um…AgentD…did you die again? Comon! UPDATE! Time is getting short! You gotta finish, I must see more! AAHHHHHH! THUD… :wink:

#49

Well, another minor update again… :hmm:

#50

AWESOME!

#51

It’s getting better and better, good work!

#52

Sweet D! I like it! Looking really awesome! Can’t wait to see final product!

#53

I made the UV map (my first) yesterday, and I’m starting to work on textures. The top creature has a basic greyscale color map applied, and the bottom two have an additional color layer applied. I’m just messing around with colors right now, so I’m not sure what I’ll do with the final image.


Any crits or comments appreciated.

#54

I really like the subtle colors idea…and its stillt o early for any big texture crits, so Instread I am going to give my…opinions! (wheee)

I think making him really slimy and gross would be cool…like sickly colors… mixed with that brownish purple… that would be keen.

ANd dont go to snake/reptile like…I see him more like spider/hairless rat thing… just something unsettling and wrong.

just my humble opinions. good stuff so far!

if you keep the tat’s btw, give him a few trinkits and such to hold onto, otherwise he is just a nudist of his people (to that could be an interesting story)

#55

I like the colors very much, also the tatoos fit very well. Keep it up! :thumbsup:

#56

Excellent D! Coming along nicely. I like thsoe textures alot. I agree, no hair… I think some more muscle definition with the textures would be cool. But that is a great start! Where does this creature live? That would factor in his texturing…like if he lives in a dirty area…etc… I like it! Keep it up!
