how about some variations on the usual dull green/brown colour palette usually seen for swamp images.

are the creatures carnivores or herbivores? do they operate via stealth (if so then colours must match environment)

do they have any bright colours for attracting mating partners?

ummm… yeah… :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock:

Hey looking good man! Intresting creatures. Keep it up!

Krugar: questions, questions…
Yeah, I’m gonna steer clear (well, not totally clear) of standard colours. Various plants and growths will introduce a splash of colour to the swamp.
As regards the creatures themselves, yes, they are carniverous. I’m thinking of making them an off-white, with markings in a darker colour.

henry: funny you should say that, because yesterday I was looking through a (really cool) book of the concept work for Star Wars Episode II, and there is a creature that’s quite similar in design, but it has six legs ending in spikes, and has no middle shoulder leg. The head is also quite different.

Remember, you saw it here first!!

Big book, hardback, silverish cover. Expensive.

But nice…

Dang, don’t think I’m going to have time to finish this before the deadline. Pretty busy at the moment. Will definitely finish it asap.

#65

Hmmm… maybe I will get some time this weekend. What’s the deadline for this challenge?

#66
