It's all about proportions, each one element is done good enough, but some parts (tendrils) are too small/short and some like belly are definetly too big... Just stick more to the artwork you posted above and it should be ok

LauricGK 03-31-2012 12:22 PM

Noted about proportions.
But don't worry about the too big belly, etc, building the body was not the priority actually, I was focusing on the head ; So Varrok thank you, I just made the tendrils bigger, longer actually, I'll show you the result.

I can say now that the fingers are going to make me crazy, I can feel it ^^ I'm feeling good now with Zbrush but I'm still a beginner so...!!

(Sorry for the double post)

Here is an update
Working on the body (Arms later)

Body sculpting in Zbrush is really, really, really fun ! Can't believe how much I missed before I discovered this software oO

STM 03-31-2012 12:58 PM

Now that looks fantastic.

Varrok 03-31-2012 01:00 PM

It's better, keep improving!

LauricGK 04-04-2012 06:37 AM

Noted !
Next step, working on the metal parts. This is not going to be animated so I think I'll simply add the helixes/rotors (moving, so) on photoshop for the final composition.
I also added some more skin details ; I'll add more and more ;) Texturing will be fun, can't wait !

Ah, please, don't watch the arms, not good yet ^^

See ya!

Varrok 04-04-2012 06:48 AM

Just saw that on facebook, good work!

LauricGK 04-04-2012 10:58 AM

Thank you Varrok ;)

I love your Flying Slig, Lauric!

Perhaps I could borrow the model for my film... when you're done with it, of course ;)

Oddey 04-04-2012 11:59 PM

Sweet mother of odd... It looks fantastic.

DarkHoodness 04-05-2012 05:35 AM

That's looking incredibly good so far, Lauric. :)

Versus 04-05-2012 11:54 PM

This Slig is fantastic! When he will be textured he will look like improved original model from developers!

LauricGK 04-10-2012 02:23 AM

Thanks guys, I'll be back very soon with more funny pictures of the slig ;)

LauricGK 04-10-2012 09:13 AM

Okay, I'm teasing again...
Here is one of the slig position he (they) will take.

http://www.affectueusement-votre-eco.../r19-pres7.jpg

I know, that sounds funny. He's not dancing, I sware :)

...But this could be a good idea, hmm ? ^^

LauricGK 04-11-2012 02:42 AM

The first one who find what the hell he's doing, win !

STM 04-11-2012 02:59 AM

Playing guitar?

Varrok 04-11-2012 03:15 AM

Pulling a lever? Nah, that's stupid. He's a toreador (or, if you prefer, torero) and he's playing with bulls

DarkHoodness 04-11-2012 04:25 AM

Isn't that one of the poses the Newscaster makes?

LauricGK 04-11-2012 12:34 PM

Haha, nope !
Well, there is no reason for you to find what the slig is really doing, I just said that for fun :) But nicely tried !

More soon ;)

Oddey 04-12-2012 10:56 AM

Turning a very large and difficult valve.

The pose looks fairly natural actually, if a little stiff.

Varrok 04-12-2012 11:19 AM

He's in search of his head... and legs

MeechMunchie 04-12-2012 11:32 AM

Sligs hate mornings.

He should've known not to lose head while drinking last night

LauricGK 04-13-2012 02:57 AM

Excellent illustration, well done ^^
Really weird how the position and the glass fit perfectly !

But wrong answer...The slig is finished, I'm almost done with the second one with its weird position ;)

Havoc 04-13-2012 03:50 AM

Pictures man! Pictures!

LauricGK 04-13-2012 04:34 AM

Done !

http://www.affectueusement-votre-eco.../r19-pres8.jpg

It's not exactly 100% the same as the original but, you will agree with me if I say that's enough for me :)

Varrok 04-13-2012 04:58 AM

Best. Ever.

AvengingGibbons 04-13-2012 05:09 AM

amazing work lauric :) did u render that image inside zbrush?

MeechMunchie 04-13-2012 05:19 AM

Wow, that's pretty damn good.

Oddey 04-13-2012 10:13 AM

If I didn't know there wasn't an image of a flying slig like that, I'd say you had ripped it straight out of one of the manuals and photoshopped it a tad. I don't think I've ever seen something that good looking based on Oddworld in forever or at least a long time.
