Creature Entry VIII

Due to moving to a new country and starting a new job, I haven't been able to update anything for quite a while. Here's my latest entry.

This was VERY challenging to do..........

Creature Entry VII

Experimenting with a much more painted style.....

Orthographic views:

End painted result feels really far from the sculpt though....have to rethink this. And yes, I missed the ears on the sculpt heh.

Creature Entry VI

Homonculus. A familiar, constructed by a demented wizard, kind of thing. Been hectic lately, trying to get back to the groove of concept sculpting!

I think I need to work harder. On everything. Maybe next one will be better.

2nd creature entry

Pre-holiday creature sculpt!

Well, not really. Spent quite a while on this fellow. More than I should have haha. Main design points are:

1) Lives in arid places
2) quadruped
3) can be used as beast of burden

Might need more work on selling the last point, heh.

In an effort to improve my design skills, I have decided to try and do a creature concept every week. I will put them up in this blog to document my progress!

Here is this week's entry. Sculpted in Zbrush and painted in photoshop! This took about 18.5 hours to complete. I am aiming to bring my speed to about 1 per 8 hour day. Let's see how that goes!

The dragon has grown up!

Another dragon. The anatomy was pretty fun to figure out!
