Hey all. I am mostly a lurker. I work in games. Starting a new role at 343 studios soon as an environment artist but I have been trying to do more organic stuff in my free time so I am going to keep posting here. I am currently studying anatomy under Alex Oliver and also taking a workshop by Bryan Wynia. Anyways, here is some stuff…Crits would be great. Amazing work in these forums.
Here is so anatomy stuff and creature quick sculpts.

Thanks for the responses guys. These are a series of speeds sculpts im doing. I am going to make a bunch of thumbnails in photoshop, take the best one and go further with them. I should be getting to it soon. Here is the final one…a little more fishy

Played around with these last 4 some more. Messed with some rendering and lighting. Its all new to me. I think I am moving on from these for now, going to do paint overs of them and take one final one to finish.

Damn, all of them!
Well the entire A series rule, but Im a cephalopod fan anyway
B4 for sure is sweet
C1 and C3 rule

All are awesome though
I liked C4, it has a solid character imo

A4
B3
C1 C3 , but all of c all great
All of D, maybe D3

Chris amazing stuff! Love the creatures concepts ! Really great inspiration!
Alex Oliver
Fantastic stuff! I like all of those thumbnails. Though C1 stood out to me because he reminded me of predator. That’s my vote 
Happy sculpting.
Updates…not sure if I like the tentacles or not…opinions?

Your forms are lacking quite a bit on this guy, but thats to be expected, you cant be good at everything right away ;D
My advice is to swap clay brush for clay buildup, and trim dynymic. Sculpt wrinkles using dam standrad, and use alpahs only for skin pores ;] And smooth more ! i can see separate clay brush strokes you made, especially on the chest ;D
But still man, awesome job on concepting, you really could go places if you start doing a lot more of sculpting ;]
