Wow, great alien design.

Hi

I’m sending a few images of my tests in Maya. I created displacement map from ZB and tryed apply to model, then I added siple texture and set some lights for better see.
The model of alien in more hard looking then my concept so I will work on some compromise. I thing that legs is to hard I have to repair it.
My aim is to create simple 3d image how I can use as bakground for final painting. So the final piece would be combination of several techniques.
Thaks for your replies and critiques and good luck all in Uplift Univerze

Neat creature, a vary alien desing! :thumbsup: Interesting surface texture on him too.
The only suggestion I have is to perhaps bend the arms that aren’t holding anything a bit more, flex them so they still feel a bit alive. right now the arm hanging straight down feels like just dead weight. But you’re probably not even to final poses yet… Anyhow, good luck with the rest, and nice work!

I tryed use some SSS map with Maya skin shader. But the textures is not final yet.

#20

I’ve tryed some composition variation and I will probably prefer the bottom one. Because the idea of scene is more focused than on others images.
What is your opinion?

#21

Planet Earth is one of the most astounding place in whole universe.
The local nature looks like as similar for all times. Primitive but worderful lifeforms live there with strong order.
But it wasn’t same in the last.
One prehistoric race was different.
When visitors came to this planet began discover grey layer of these creatures. The sand uncover many of them and their civilization. And not only on the blue planet but also on little Moon and Mars to. They were strong and powerfull but something went wrong.
The black finish of their layer was as open book of end. It was full of dust and ash.
Visitors were the explorers with incredible ability to read memory of matter. They knew more similar races with black finish.
And the one thing was the same for any of them.
All had one similar question.
