[voodoomonkey]

Hey BuendiaCG...
Nice work, I'd hint at some more bone structure on the back,
Spinal column, ribs that sort of thing.
Great work though!

Ahhhh! Only a face that a mother could love... or the devil :confused:

Very Awesome! Great job :tu:

I think I would get rid of the base, but it's your call ;)

Buen Trabajo hermano

[Enigma]

I can't begin to voice how awesome this is! I love pickled punks. :lol: You should model a glass specimen jar for him. Truly outstanding. The concept the, modeling and the detailing all work so well.

Could you post up a picture of the level 1 mesh as well.

[BuendiaCG]

hey guys, thank you for all your replies,jorge thanx so much, Im working on a colormap right now, I fixed that spine thing vodoo monkey, just a bit sutile,, lol, yeah traped door, I guess it'd be good for an antismoking comercial, and yeah thats what I was gonna do elarcano and enigma, Im gonna put a base of something like a jar or an exibition specimen kind of thing, like he is a lab experiment, here is a capture of the fetus wireframe, thank you

[Dickie]

A cool design, well executed! The third image is my favorite. Can't wait to see him in his bottle...

5 stars...

[troy1617]

hey i really like your concept could you post your light settings for the shadows that you have acomplished and love the detail and feel the alein portrays in the image its self you should do a z-script some time if you can i wuld love to see how you work and also what size tablet do you work with to acomplish the great amount of detail you portray in your models?

[- FoOD -]

wow - awsome - I love it - very cool :tu:

[Sebcesoir]

Another great pic from VFS!
Cool job!

[rasmusW]

that's every pregnant womans nightmare...
great work.

[3Dean]

was the base mesh made out of zspheres?

[lovisx]

awesome work alvaro, really like your skin !

[calum5ZB]

Excellent little dude you made here,I wouldnt fancy dating his mum especially if she breast fed lol!Compliments:-)

[alexleia]

great! i like it!

[Scott Spencer]

Thats a great little creature. I agree he begs for a glass jar and some mood lighting.

[BokoWar]

Top row Model. Great model, from concept to texture:D :tu:

[Koke]

Dude the model is looking awesome, the color work is coming along very nice.
As I told you earlier before today, I think that giving the veins more of a bluish/green color would benefit the model, making it more.... well disgusting hehe.

Great source of inspiration as always.


JK.

:D

[Dan-Burke]

Love it...very well done! :tu:

[KarimZ]

Great pic!
Nice details and creature design.
I find that the third from top has the best colors, and the regular gradient background looks way better than the one with the pattern. The pattern doesn't fit the creature imo.
nice work

[Frenchy Pilou]

creepy indeed :D

[gpepper]

Sounds like a top row stuff ! :tu:

[yazz]

What I need to do that?

What kind of pc you have?

Specifications jajaja,

I tried to do something like that but my pc failed.

[KrakenCMT]

Really horribly beautiful!

I like your second color image the best. After that, it has too much specular highlighting IMO and makes it look more computer done.

[chindian]

Great work as usual man... Very creepy... but me likey... lol

All the best!

[BuendiaCG]

here is how it looks, hope you guys like it, Im gonna do a couple more stills, maybe a closeup of the head, :D ah, and karaken I tried to lower the specularity, but without it it looks like is not a wet creature, this was polymodeled in xsi, textured in zbrush and photoshop, and rendered in mentalray, I was gonna give him a jar, but it'll b to much trouble and Im short of time, and I'll try to make another piece, hope I dont disapoint to much, thanx everyone, I may send some more images soon.

[FilthUponYou]

beautiful!

[Leshiy3d]

need some SSS :D but overall good work

[Drummer]

love it !!
congrats

[lovisx]

one thing that stands out to me, considering it's a baby... more sub surface scattering would help on the skin and teeth. The teeth needs sss turned up for sure.

But yeah this is looking pretty sweet.

[kevphil]

Amazing! Repulsive! Amazingly repulsive!

[SLegrand]

As the others said SSS all the way!
But i think that, if you feel like adding a few bits and pieces, a slimy mouth interior would add quiet a bit. Since the mouth is open. But i guess that means editing the base mesh, and relaying out some UVs, so you may not want to do it...
I love it!

[KarimZ]

why isn't this on the top row btw

[saltapiedras]

Muy bueno. Me encanta ese feto.:tu: :tu: :tu:

[doron]

excelent composit :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:

[capitan_popo]

love that model looks amazing really cool

[frogspasm]

Ohhhhh, he's soooo cute! He's just a wittle snoogy woogums, yes he is!

He's great, man. I love his shiny black eyes. The color and texture are both well done, and the design is great. The umbilical cord kinda looks like a big extended schlong, especially with his little sack just below it....not a crit, just an observation. And, yeah, he totally needs a jar/incubator!

Nice work!

[Adam Muratoff]

This is fantastic! Love the concept and the delivery. Cheers.

[jclepev]

Nice composition and attention to details. I think that part of the concept (or the character at least) is inspired by Jordu Schell (phantasm).

Nice one

[BuendiaCG]

oh man!, its awesome, frontpage
hey jclepev, I didnt even know about Jordu Schell, but I searched for him on google, wow!... my fetus looks like the unborn version of phantasm, wow... I guess we both have similar nightmares in our minds lol

[Frenchy Pilou]

Charming baby :D

[Blaine91555]

Congrat's on the top row. Well deserved. Great image.

[womball]

Awesome little beastie! I wonder what its mother looks like?

[thegrub]

Love it! he looks like a fierce little B*stard.

[LIQUIDSNEEK]

thats a very eerie and creepy looking which means to say thats aswome
the style reminds me of those comix:tu: :tu: :tu:

[xiaoys]

Very!Very good! I like.

[doron]

:tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:

[tokaru]

[AgentSmith]

I am never having children...

[3Dean]

Top Row! Great work and congrats!:tu:

[Mossotti]

[WoodyLWG]

Top shelf! Congrats. :)

I really like the look of this one and would love to see it comped into a doctor's office or museum setting. Beautiful work - I really enjoyed it.

[Agamenon]

WOWW:eek: excellent work....

[chindian]

[xvampire]

[cdubs8600]

It's works like this that make me want to continue the laborious process of being a bad ass like you! Such good work, man!

[directorjoshharris]

Oh... my... god...

[pumeco]

He'll be popular with the ladies - that's for sure :D

[javalabala]

you have a beatifull babymonster, cool design

[lovisx]

awesome, front page!
well desrved

[phrEEk]

hello
i like the model but i find it is hard (...well, for me...) to believe in the creature itself,
fetus dont have teeth, have closed eyes etc..

also the final image could be alot better,
seems like hes in the sea right now

[3Dean]

wouldn't that depend on the type of fetus you're talking about, phrEEk ;)?

[AgentSmith]

Sharks, crocs, piranha; I believe are all born with teeth. I'm sure there's more.

[billrobertson42]

And demons. Don't forget demons.

[kevin_meo]

so fantastic ! well done

[boozy floozie]

I really like the way you've given the finished piece a retro sci-fi painting feel.

[giad]

Nice model and concept!

[skinnybonez]

:tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:

Born of a jackyl...where's the number of the beast?

AMAZING WORK! :eek:

[ktryan]

it so great.... I lov that...
excellent work. how many hour u take for this project...
Can I know ?
You should make tutorial about lighting...

[Psionic]

If Im not mistaken, this is your model being used in his image, no? And I highly doubt you would put it up on the web as freely as this guy is claiming. Or as he says "The Baby are free on the www."

I also love the message on the bottom of his image description. "Please respect my Art copyright by Guido Leber."

Let the ripping begin.

[industripop]

*sigh*

why oh why do people think they can get away with this crap? seriously!? did he thing he's get away with it and just get the kudos? looks like somebody taking liberties with the wonderful tutorial materials Alvaro provided in ImagineFX magazine. i'm surprised nobody there busted him sooner.

this guy has no idea what "respect" means.

[chindian]

Man, that is just sad... and totally a load of BS! That guy needs to take that thread down...
There's no excuse for ripping off another artist's work and claiming it as your own.

Big up and respect to my boy - Alvaro! lol.
Hope that guy does the right thing.

Peace.

[piz]

C O O L !!!

:tu: :cool: :tu:

[XxDarkMessiahxX]

I love the replies I just got from this guy trying to defend his plaigerism... which it seems like he'd rather do than just take down the image.

Thanks for your comment. This Model have I found in a Tutorial Zip in the www. ........ without a copyright and a signature. And I have nothing write thats the Creature in the front from me. And so I have nothing stolen this Creature. When I have a Name of the creator from this creature I give him credit , no Problem.
Thank Guido Leber

and then...

hello
and I have look at the link: and it is right this is feto. I have found this Creature in a TuT Zip with no Signature and copyright (bad). And so I give credit to Alvaro Buendia for this Creature. And please I have write that this creature is nothing from me I have found in the www. sorry. The same words comes under my Picture in the Galerie.
Guido Leber

What a dirtbag.
