    Default Silincth - A Sneak Peak

    Hi Ho Z-Neighbors!

    I have been working on various projects over the past couple of weeks and I thought I would give you a glimpse of one of them that is nearing completion. This model is all one piece except for a couple of the bands around the elbows and knees, the tentacles at the ends of his arms, and the groin armor covering. It was all textured using Projection Master. I have a few more areas to work on yet. I want to add some texture to the armor and incorporate a few more pieces and gadgets. The boots need some work too. But here is a sneak peak of


    The Silincth

    love it , lonnie.

    The texturing is awesome , I really like the tentacle hands and the slimey feel of the material. The only thing that I would have as critic are the feet but you mentioned that already (gravity boots baby !). Maybe they could use a bit more work , or sharper edges , dunno really.

    And one little thing , his skin around his stomach area seemed to be on top of the armor. If I look closely I know the armor in on top really , but my eyes played tricks on me in that area of the picture.

    Terrific! I really like the contrast between the textures of the skin and armour. Very interesting looking character.

    That is really sweet!

    Very nice style... looks clean an simple at first glance; but then you begin to see the detail.

    Excellent work Lonnie! That skin texture is fabulous! My ony critique would be that you should add folds of skin to other parts of it's body, similar to the head.

    I definitely want to see what else you got cooking! Thanks for sharing.

    what a great texturing job! The skin seems highly realistic. I´m very interested in what the armor will look like later!

    Thanks everyone. Well the more I look at it the more I think I am going to do away with the armor and go with a more natural body. The armor just looks out of place. It was a cool idea at first but it doesn't fit with the subject very well. So it's back to the base model and I shall model it from ground up again.
