Alien Strogg

ZBrush Artworks
#1

Ok, I started another Strogg, but this one is an alien. I messed around with his anatomy, so I know it doesn’t look real. Also, He’s far from finished. Since he’s Strogg, there’s gonna be some mechanical sutff going on with him. This is just the fleshy bits I have so far. There’s also a lot of things I’m gonna be changing with those fleshy bits, so hopefully it’ll look a lot different by the time I’m finished.

Anyway, enjoy. :smiley:

Oh, and yes, I was VERY inspired by the interview with Kenneth Scott. I made my design before I read that interview, but still, it’s quite obvious the influence is there. :wink:

[EDIT] having trouble uploading images here, let’s hope this works…

I don’t get an error, it just stops. Very weird.

Thanks for the comments, I’m gonna up the pics as much as possible. I really wanna learn how to do some of the stuff Kenneth Scott did with his models. I wanna get those crisp looking edges in there, and it’s not quite working yet. :wink:

Oh, and it’s great to be back. Thanks

#5

Alright, more of a real update. Small, yes, but an update none the less. I’m getting some of those crisp edges, but there still nowhere near what Kenneth can do… Oh, well, I’m really not surprised by that, considering the fact I’m NOT Kenneth. :smiley:

I’d really like to up some pics, people tend to check the threads that have pics updates, and avoid the rest till they’re bored. Hopefully this’ll be fixed soon.

Ok, I thin I’m starting to get the hang of the crisp edges thing now. They obviously need work, but seeing as how this is a WIP, I don’t see a problem with it.

[finally got the pic to upload. Ron, you might try shrinking the resolution a little bit if you’re still having that problem]

#7

Looking like a really cool character Great Job :+1: :+1: .

Thanks, Solid. There’s still got a lot of work left to do on him, all the mechanics and things. I also need to design more of his lower half. :smiley: And in case anyone is wondering, his stomach is hollowed out for an engine to be placed inside.

More updates tomorrow.

#9

Ok, a little head update for ya. Hope you like it. :smiley:

#10

That is gonna be one bad dude. :wink:

#11

cool! what’s going in the stomach?

#12

Thanks for the comments. I’m thinking an engine will go in his stomach, ot maybe some tubes, and cables and things. I’m working on his mechanical right arm right now, and I’m hoping I can get this gun to look decent. Mechanical modeling is one of my weakest areas. But I’ve got the design, and I don’t see there being much of a problem.

more updates later. :smiley:

#13

Sorry for the lack of updates, I’m working on the gun, and trying to learn as much about mechanical modeling as I can while doing it. I will be updating this when I get that bothersome object finished.

Thanks for looking. :wink:

#14

Ok, I’ve been doing some experimenting with my mechanical modeling, so I didn’t really have anything worth posting till today.

This is a render from Max of a lower poly version exported from ZB. That was done so I can make sure all the mechanicl stuff is in proportion, and in place. There’s still a good amount of work to do on it, but I wanted to post this update now.

Hope you like it. :wink:

#15

Looks nice… the shoulder seems a bit weird perhaps :+1:

#16

Oh yeah, I forgot to comment on that…

I haven’t done any size editing on the shoulders yet, I’ve been concentrating on the rest of the arm…

I’ll fix it, I promise. :lol:

#17

Replica,
Nice work on the gun bro…

#18

Thanks, odhinn. I’m currently trying to come up with a “backpack” type thing for him, that will have some cables that go from the arm to different spots on the pack. I really wanna change his feet too.

Anyway, I should have more updates by tomorrow. :stuck_out_tongue:

#19

Ok, a small update. I changed the shoulder armor, I’m still not sure if I will keep it or not, so I’m treating it as a place holder for now. I’m also going to be adding some mechanics around the shoulder.

I gave it a 3-second lighting treatment, just to add a little something to the pic. Hope you like it.

#20

hey!! i adore this latest render!! and also the model… but i think the anatomy isn’t very realistic…was it in your intentions?
