Nightmare - Ojah

[Ojah]

Seems i'm the first one :).

Got some inspiration from the movie "the thing" and started sketching. Sketch feels like its already going in the right direction, will probably get a few more limbs and i want it to look a bit more slimey.

comments and critique is always welcome of course!

Looks good kinda has a zombie octoroc look though

[paulius-st]

looking scary. wouldn't like to meet this guy at night :)

[Fotology.dk]

Looks something from the game called Resident Evil :)

[Ojah]

Thanks guys, took me a while to see the zombie octoroc, but once the eye was seen, it was hard to unsee it... Well, heres a little update, let me know what you think :).

[Kaiune3D]

Very creepy solid concept.

I don't envy having to rig that though.

Cant wait to see it in 3d

[theyoonion]

lookin pretty b.a.!
I think having the extra undead limbs is really cool, do you plan on adding any eyes? I kinda can imagine just a jumble of eyes being held together by sloppy flesh :P

[Ojah]

Thanks! A bit of a sloppy update for today, will probably start 3d now while refining the concept. Made the image a bit wider and removed some of its teeth to make it more "readable". Also removed some dumb stuff and tried to make the anatomy a bit better.

About eyes, the idea was to keep him eyeless, but i'll give it a shot in my next concept update.

Let me know what you think about the changes :)

[hulahuga]

Very nice man, really dig it :). Think the many small teeth were almost scarier though, but that's me ;)

Looking forward to see what you do!

[Jera]

Dude!
Awesome concept so far! :D
I really love the asymmetrical style of the monster and the scars & stitching all over the place. The arms look really cool as well!

I do agree with Hulahuga that the earlier version with more, smaller teeth seems scarier and personally im not a big fan of the teeth on the tongue..

I'll be curious to see what it looks like when it comes into 3d ;)
Keep it up!

[Neil_F01]

this looks really cool by the way..

[Ojah]

Completed the concept and about to start the 3d after some dynamesh tests. Not sure about the colors yet so help me decide please :). Dark or light head? (also added a version with eyes, but i dont think i'll go that way)

[Fynn]

the dark head it looks more like a hungry creature

[Neil_F01]

i'd go dark.. and whats wrong with the eyes.. they look cool.. (maybe the wrong colour.. i dont know).. :D

[MemoNick]

Dark here :)

[Kaiune3D]

Dark no eyes

[Jera]

Same here, dark & no eyes. The eyes look gimmicky for some reason..

With the dark head you could go for a style of almost rotting and disgusting looking flesh :P

[tasic]

Ojah how is it going? Concept looks great and scary. I'd like to see how it looks in 3D, especially with the eyes.

[Ojah]

Thanks for the replies, took some time before i started on the 3d because of a big sprint at work. And with 10+ hours of 3d at work it's hard to continue at home...
Should be able to post an update when i get back tonight.

[Ojah]

Just finished the basemesh, tomorrow, sculpting :)

edit, self-crit: It seems like it could do with some more volume in the shoulder, the big arm and its legs. And i could take the piece of its mouth on top of the head a bit further.

[Ojah]

and a small update.

[Fynn]

looks great :)

[Neil_F01]

look cool mate..

[tasic]

As I said, looks scary. Just keep going. :)
