I love this model.
The realistic aspect of the model is really at most. It is to realize a "cartoon" movie ?

Great character! :cool:

It is supposed to instill fear and horror in the viewer :D I just don´t want to fall into the stereotypical "deamon with great big horns and lots of teeth" category.

A friend over at another forum made a killer comment: "It looks like ALF with rabies" Does anyone remember that cat-eating alien from the TV show? well this is his MOTHER! :eek:

Going to post the normal mapped beast later today.

Hope you like her/it.

She'd be ideal for part of a Rat Queen - read "Rats and Gargoyles" by Mary Gentle.

You are talkign about Alf...lol....Alf was kewl. I like your character as well...Bionic Alf's Momma from Melmac or something like that.....great job on the character. :tu: :tu:

[Chanchito gordo]

Thanks for the kind comments everyone!

Alan: I think I´ll take a look at that book. Might give me some more inspiration, thanks for the tip.


I´ll just post the pre-cybernetic concept work along with the normal mapped result so far using a Zbrush generated normal map

nice! :tu: I would extrude the tube areas on the low res model and add some polys here and there so it matches just right, looking great

[Abyssis]

yaaah, it looks very, very good :tu:

[simonkandah]

hi, (my first post) your character is great! I was wondering how you got the screenshot for the normal map version? I am working on a character for school and want to normal map it. I'll post it for feedback in it's WIP state.
Thanks.

Thanks for the pointers guys!

Simon: I did this in max so for this to be of any help, I hope you use it too. Download GNormal for max, put it in your plugins folder, open your lo poly model in max, assign material, in bumpmap slot, assign gnormal and put the normal map in gnormal´s normal slot.tadaa, there you have it.
