Chef Boyardee Monster

Hi all
It has been a very long time since I posted anything.
I thought I would post some pics of a character that I designed for a Chef boyardee commercial, at Stan Winston Studio.
It was a really fun Character to do because it was a whimsical monster for a change and not another flesh eating beast (nothing against flesh eating beasts).
the final models were all made from Zspheres and then re-topped.
The head, hands,horns and feet were all rapid prototyped in foam and detailed, molded etc.

here is a link to the finished commercial

All the designing was done in Zbrush and the comps

renders and hair were done in Photoshop.

Really cool, a nice whimsical monster you don’t see that often in media anymore. Also brings a nostalgic feeling from older films like Labyrinth. And I like the commercial for using a full size puppet compared to the CG creatures from their other commercials. And I always thought that when the commercial came on and enjoyed seeing the cool monster. So thanks for the great work.

Great Work Scott!

I’ll see ya at work on Monday!

Cool character, I really like the expression.

This is really cool. I just love seeing 3D Zbrush stuff brought to life with real world materials.
Nice doe eyes :wink: Thanks for sharing.

Ace character! -Has a real ‘Where the Wild Things Are’ feel to it. :+1:

Thanks guys!

Hey Johnny, should we show the Orkin stuff? Maybe a duel post?

Sounds good. I got lots a pics. We can ask Alan tomorrow.

That is just astonishing. Great character, and an awfully welcome change of pace around here! I simply love it!

The process is very interesting as well, I would love to see more from behind the scenes!

Very nice, I;ve seen this on TV and loved it! Great Character Design, Takes me back to something Brian Froud would have designed for the movie Labyrinth. Also somthign like a Jim Henson Design. VERY GOOD JOB!
