Goddess of the lost land and her pet

I'm really liking the Goddess's head dress. Her pet is also awesome! Would be cool if she's super tiny and stands on his shoulder or something. Also Try out a bigger upper body and wider shoulders. Also make him hutch a bit so it'll give an illusion of a extremely large creature. Keep up the good work!

[CGzero]

Ohh man that is really awesome! Keep up the awesomeness I am expecting great things ;)

[GregStrangis]

Great sketches! Really like where the Goddess is going so far, looking forward to seeing more =)

[miclepickle]

very cool... her hat is so awesome... and the pet looks incredible... is that all gonna fit into 12.5k polys? :P

[mix_mash]

This is going to look good but be careful that the pet doesn't overshadow the goddess as the focus of attention. Make the goddess huge and the pet fit in the palm of her hand, maybe.

Looking forward to seeing this progress.

Cheers,

I disagree... I see the pet being a summoner's body guard of sorts... I think the pet should be huge :P


also, her skirt I think needs some refinement, right now it just looks like she has a sheet wrapped around her... would be nice to have some detail to counter her awesome headress...

[SnappedStrings]

Really nice concept, IMO, I would say throw the goddess right out the window and focus on the pet. That's such a cool design, it'd be awesome to see all the detail you can get on that without having to compromise just to fit the goddess.

Great work

[miclepickle]

I think both the goddess and the pet are great ideas... it would be good to do one for the competition then do the other in your own time so they can both have as many polys as they need :D

[washka]

Nicez pet :D! Gl man.

[Warlock 279]

I like the simplicity of the design of the goddess, its elegant in a way, as a goddess should be, and the pet is really really cool. I don't see a reason why you couldn't easily fit them both within the budget, especially if you make her small and the pet large. Throw the 2500 her way, and that leaves you 10k free for the pet, very doable. Anyway, regardless of what direction you take, you've got some really cool elements going on in those designs.

[hulahuga]

Looking good man! :) Very neat indeed.

How do you plan on making the joint pose? Will she be leading him quite clearly or are you making it simple, them just standing next to eachother?

[Puckducker]

Nice start Atom, like both sketches a lot. I'd say maybe try to combine more elements from the two concepts together, as they right now seem like 2 different idea's, rather than pieces of the same component.

I'd also suggest go over the DW3/4 entries. There have been a lot of "fragile master/super strong pet" type entries. It'd be good to see what others have already tried out and do something to stand apart from them, rather than just tread the same ground.

Actually, IF she is meant to be the goddess then why would she need a body guard? She is the focus because the rules of the comp are to create a god/goddess. That's why I suggested that she be huge to show that she is NOT frail but full of godly powers. The description in the comp says: "Show us why your GOD is THEE GOD of ALL!!" So, she's not a summoner who needs puny help.

A nice twist would be that the 'pet' was actually the god and the 'goddess' was really the pet. He would have to make the 'pet' more intelligent looking (so he looks more like a god than a beast), though.

[GoodAtom]

Thanks so much for everyone's good advices, I promice to think about all ideas and see about which one is the best)))
Earlier the idea was about a little-sized goddess, which calls her pet to appear, using her godly power)

[GoodAtom]

My next concept of the goddess

[zugok]

Very nice painting. IMHO, do you think it may have less of the "Lost Land" feel?

Cheers

[mix_mash]

Beautiful!

[DaddyDoom]

Love the mood!

[Gordon_Freeman]

I like your style, keep it up!

[koyima]

Nice concept. I would go 2d for this, the real-time aspect might not let this concept shine, I mean the cloth of course. Keep em coming.

[GoodAtom]

thanks a lot

zugok,
I'm not sure I understood everything correct. Would you please tell me - what are you mean about the "Lost land"? I have no idea what is it)))

[washka]

Sweeet one!
I like the hands. ;)

[koyima]

nice progress, great figure.

[capitan_popo]

WOW...loving those concepts...

[GoodAtom]

Thanks guys

koyima,
I am glad that updating to be pleasant

washka,
I like these hands too)))))))))))))))

[Crispy4004]

Now that's one knock out drawing. Nice start to the sculpture too. Definitely going to be watching this develop.

[GoodAtom]

thanks a lot

[drained spirit]

i can't explain how much i am in love with your second concept creature. Just awesome man. Absolute artistry :)

all the best to you.

btw just out of curiosity, are we allowed to have a creature on the side?

[GoodAtom]

thanks a lot
Short time later will be possible to see her pet, in zbrush - from all sides ;)

[TMNI VISION]

looks great :).

[washka]

Tits are a bit small and pointing up a bit too much imo, plastic, (on profile: you made some large thoracic cage). Have to see more for hands/face.
Rest seems quite ok, even if some areas could be pushed further (but I don't think DWV is a big anatomy contest). Keep it up!

[GoodAtom]

Thanks for comments ;)

[washka]

2 gods?

[Pockets]

it's her pet re the original concept me thinks.

[GoodAtom]

that's right
is her pet;)

[Pockets]

[GoodAtom]

Pockets,

Legs of the pet are big, really big compared to torso/head.

[wil_himura]

Good progress! +1 big legs. Even tho they are not fully flexed, they look big.

[geoa]

Woow ,it's really the best :P

[GoodAtom]

Ok, thanks for comments

[GoodAtom]

[hulahuga]

Oh is that one yours on the cover, way cool, congrats! :)

Digging the entry, I want to see where you take this.

[Martin_x]

Nice sculpts. Which hair style are you going to use? I like the second one with less volume.

[GoodAtom]

hulahuga, thanks!!!
What didyou mean by digging the entry? Sorry, my English isnot so perfect)


Martin_x, thank you)
I created her a new hairstyle, very long hair, and changed the face))))
and I made dress basic geometry and base color)))

[xxxcubanxxx]

really like her face and body, good job keep it up

[hulahuga]

base color

[E4sY]

Looks good. The face holds a lot of character. i think the cloth area could use more attention as far as creasing. Right now it's looking flat as if it's been heavily startched. I think u should darken the green to contrast her hair more too.

[GoodAtom]

E4sY,
Thank you for your comment
to be continued;)



redesign of a monster

[hulahuga]

Now doesn't that look a ton better! :D

Martin_x,
I remember thanks

[Puckducker]

Sculpt is fantastic, great job. My only crit would be to seem some more of the octopus design reflected elsewhere in the creature beyond just the tentacles.

Really hope you find the time to finish up your low poly/texture

[Bulygin]

i like it, cool work

[TMNI VISION]

looks great . waiting for the lowres with color . It will be very interesting to see both placed in a pedestal .

[Gottsnake]

Awesome work, man! :)
I love your skin filling, it looks great! GL!

[GoodAtom]

thanks a lot

[Phr33kboy]

Goodatom, really glad you posted your planned routine. Helps me also put things into perspective too.
Knowing that people work more effective when rested I'd recommend you break your days into 8 hours of hard productive work. Unless of course your used to working 16 hours days. Otherwise you'll, like me, burn out after 8-10 and be working sluggish and less effectively and that will get carried to the next day/session as you'll feel like you only just left. Best to come back to the work re-energized working at gods speeds feeling like you want to crush some heads :D
Just my 2cents.

Killer app that helps me get **** done, (better than focus booster imho):
