WIP Scene : Oddworld FeeCo Depot [Finished]

[Varrok]

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]

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...!!

[LauricGK]

(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]

Now that looks fantastic.

[Varrok]

It's better, keep improving!

[LauricGK]

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]

Just saw that on facebook, good work!

[LauricGK]

Thank you Varrok

[Sekto Springs]

I love your Flying Slig, Lauric!

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

[Oddey]

Sweet mother of odd... It looks fantastic.

[DarkHoodness]

That's looking incredibly good so far, Lauric.

[Versus]

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

[LauricGK]

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

[LauricGK]

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



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

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

[LauricGK]

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

[STM]

Playing guitar?

[Varrok]

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

[DarkHoodness]

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

[LauricGK]

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]

Turning a very large and difficult valve.

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

[Varrok]

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

[MeechMunchie]

Sligs hate mornings.

[Varrok]

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

[LauricGK]

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]

Pictures man! Pictures!

[LauricGK]

Done !



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]

Best. Ever.

[AvengingGibbons]

amazing work lauric did u render that image inside zbrush?

[MeechMunchie]

Wow, that's pretty damn good.

[Oddey]

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.
