silverflame - Insect

silverflame · 11-09-2009, 08:00 PM

did some quick thumbnails for the insect. I'm quite taken with number 4 atm

eventhough i sometimes get scared of them, i think spiders look cool. im thinking of making one of my own to. cant wait to see what u make of it

I like #4 as well, but #2 looks cool also. #2 looks like it has a little dinosaur in it, especially the tail. Might be interesting if you can flesh it out a little more.

nr 2 looks unique, almost like it hatched in spore.

silverflame · 12-09-2009, 04:15 PM

did some more descriptive designs of bug 2 ... i'm thinking the pointy head makes it seem more agressive so will go with number 2 most likely

PainKiller · 13-09-2009, 07:02 PM

I agree that #2 looks more aggressive but there's something about #1 I really like... I think it might just be the fact that the rounder head makes it flow better with the rest of the design, at least to me.

He looks like the Seeder from Gears of War..

I have to agree that the head from #1 flows better with the rest of the body. 2 looks nice, but I like the first better.

silverflame · 13-09-2009, 10:46 PM

hehe i actually started and almost finished the highpoly for design 2 (shown below) but im having trouble as the normals and ambient maps aren't being created properly, full of errors so may go back and rethink it with design 1

mies · 14-09-2009, 02:36 PM

You sure work fast dont ya. i think its really nice looking and cant wait to see some collor on it! keep it up.

SR_6274 · 14-09-2009, 03:21 PM

Just remember you can't use normal maps for this competition

It looks great so far. Can't wait to see the color scheme you have for it.

silverflame · 14-09-2009, 03:23 PM

had a go at design 1 aswell really indecisive about the 2 designs, i think ill see which one converts to better light maps etc then decide from there

Novian · 14-09-2009, 04:08 PM

silverflame: He looks great so far. My only suggestion would be to push the mouth in more before you do the light map, just to get a bit more out of it. Not too much so that you end up with all dark though.

Great progress. Keep it up!

Cheers~

Can't use normal maps? Where was that at on the rules?

Anyways this is looking good so far, keep it up.k

silverflame · 14-09-2009, 04:27 PM

yeh i know i cant use normal maps but you can burn them into the diffuse to add extra detail but it doesnt seem to be going very well both are being generated with a ton of errors that i cant figure out
