WHAT'S THIS???

[Mentat7]

I have no idea what it is but I sure know I don't ever want to find one of these crawling in my bed!!

Just some experimenting. I created a face on a Plane3d, rendered it then MRGBZ grabbed it and applied the texture to a sphere. I then edited the sphere a little by moving and squishing it around. Then I used the alpha that was created from the MRGBZ grab to inflate it a couple of times. The shading of the grabbed object really makes a difference. I am going to experiment with this a little more...I have a few ideas.

VERSION 2 USING THE SAME MRGBZ GRABBED TEXTURE AS MAPS IN THE THE GDI AND GSI SETTINGS (SET AT 25 EACH)

This is a new one on me lonnie!Whatever it is it is very well done creatively and imaginative. I agree it is not something anyone us us would like to become aquainted with especially if it is hungry. :D :D :D :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :D

This is very slightly like an experiment I did a while ago where I imported a face texture from the sims and put it on a sphere, THEN did some low-polygon modelling. I am definately going to experiment with this technique you came up with, considering the image you were able to make with it ;) :D :tu: :tu: :tu:

I saw this earlier when you posted it first, but had to run out of the house to deliver some contracts to be signed...(long story) but I was going to tell you how much I liked this creature...version 1 especially....I wrote a section of my ongoing manuscript where one of my characters was attacked and "implanted" by something that resembles your creation. I have a sketch six years old around here somewhere of it...but when I saw your version I did the jaw drop thing....you nailed my character almost perfectly...though your appendiges are a bit more meatier than mine...it still suprised me...this day has been full of suprises...thanx for adding to them...

You have done it again...
THIS THING IS COOL!
I would want one of those next to my bed...Guarding it!! :)
I love the second image.
That dangling slim..or what is it called?..hehe...if you don't mind telling me what brush was that..fiber..snake hook or hook...or is it a 1.5 brush?

Thanks!

Very creative technique Lonnie and the results are a testament to the fact.....
I'm going to have to give this one a try.
thanx.
