"has boobies" seems to be a popular theme this year... I can dig it.

today's early doodles, a chick with a rock elemental type centaur body... not sure if I'm gonna give her a weapon, or armor... just giving her some big rocky beatin' fists with some nice glowing power veins running through the rock might be more than enough to kill everything in the universe instantly.

    Haha! yeah man, you're not kidding. Great minds think alike right?

    Well I am sure we can make them sufficiently distinct. For one, I am either going shadow or vegetation with mine, and the emphasis will be on making her lithe and nimble.
    If you're going with elemental earth, it would definitely serve the design to emphasize the bulk and weight of her earthen parts.

    I'm going to play with more concepts too, perhaps I'll find something I like even better.

    thanks guys... yah, definitely starting to push this design a little further. Glad we chose different elements... might be cool to have a dual pose shot for fun if we both end up finishing badass centaur chicks.

    I changed some stuff around here... mainly added a blade weapon on her arm, and changed the lower forearms to gorilla-type appendages for maximum destruction potential. Also decided she was too awesome for just one sort of posture, and gave her the ability to stand fully upright and use those shiny new gorilla arms as another set of huge regular arms. Less agile standing up, but jesus... she'll kill ya, man.

    I probably wont give her any kind of a weapon to hold. between the 4 rock arms, the stabbers and the nipples, I'd say she's already pretty well equipped. I'd like to add a soul-stone thing or something somewhere on the rock part... she's intact, legs and all, inside the rock. The elemental parts of her body are essentially a "suit" that forms around whoever controls the artifact rune.

    workin? not workin?

    and a little diagram to show the two poses...

    I actually think the monkey position makes for a strong fighting pose as well smile.gif She looks like she could be tipped over pretty easily while standing up. Either way, cool concept smile.gif

    Bacon?



    Seriously, I like the idea of her as a hexapod but with the middle pair capable of either locomotion or manipulation - it'll make it even more distinct from the other centauress type being done here.

    Oh totally dig the new design, man
    Despite the extreme top heaviness I especially like the upright posture

    thanks dudes

    r4ptur3 - you're right about that, I'll try and work some more balance into the design to help with her upright stability. I might just be able to make the tail a little thicker and pose it so it looks like an effective counter-weight. Maybe.

    Updated the hair... who wants to fuck around with alpha strips when you can sculpt WICKED BADASS DEMON HORNS>!>??!

    Meh, not really digging the demon horns. The plain hair grounded her and made a better contrast to the rest of the design. Maybe just pull it tight into a bun with some sort of tiara echoing the rocky look from below?

    Love the ape shapes.

    Love the update. I agree with naruSol about the horns, the hair looks cooler in my opinion. Might be cool to make the intersection between the torso and the elemental form into a head, kinda like it half swallowed her...

    Very cool!
    I like the horns, but i think you should make them all in one direction. The big hands look strange because of the slim upper arms, you could make a bit of that rock material go up her upper arms to make it look stronger. Maybe... she needs something for covering her boobs? smile.gif

    thanks guys! Crits appreciated and incorperated. Decided to try a compromise between the hair and horns.. whadya think? I should probably give her a more interesting haircut...

    Also, I desperately need color scheme assistance. Crits in that category especially appreciated.

    how about adding in some more colors to the body, making it look more like a heavily oxidized metal of some sort.

    Example of colors I'm talking about. Those easily offended by bronze castings of genitalia be warned

    Yes, that is in fact a bronze casting of a vagina. Best reference of the kind of colors I was thinking of that I could find on google.

    Yea lol looks more like a heavily oxidized vagina. ooo.gif
    Anyways, sweet concept dude. I especially love how the front set of legs feel with those meaty hands. As far as color goes, im not to good on that stuff either. I would suggest though going with a lighter consistent color on the underbelly and then maybe a progressive tonal change towards the end of the limbs to a darker, dirtier, tone. You could have the spikes tipped in a deep red or black aswell, might seperate things a bit. Im sure someone with more experince with color can give you better advice on this haha. smile.gif

    very nice...i agree with narusol on the colors. it would be nice to tie some of her hair color into the rock areas to balance her out. either that or add blues to both her hair and the stone area. whatever u do, i'm sure it'll look awesome!

    Really nice concept so far. Iw ould suggest adding more muscle to the arms. Right now it doesn't look like she would be able to lift all that stuff on her arms.

    Geez man. Considering the publicity this comp will generate, I'd tone down the use of vagina's. Or atleast warn NSFW

    Lol... this cant be the first time a polycount thread has been hijacked by a metal vagina.

    Thanks for the comments guys... tonight's update is pretty brief, gonna be gone for the weekend. Hopefully I'll have a halfway-decent color scheme figured out when I get back, and can give a bigger update with a proper no-linework color concept. Took away the bra... she's goin bare-chested into battle, methinks. (unless I can come up with a bra that fits the theme and doesnt look tacked-on)

    and detailed the backside of her massive blade weapon

    Nice one, Ferg. This is looking very promising!
    Flesh it out and then smash the modelling!
    Your stuff is just getting better and better, man.

    cool concept, great size and weight ... the rules say stuff about nudity though, so i'd be careful of the bare chest - you can probably get away with it but best to check, I think... don't wanna get disqualified for something like that blush.gif

    You could always do two versions, one with a slightly different texture if you wanted to cover it up for the contest but bare the breasts to get it how you want.

    thanks much for the comments guys. Decided to go with a corset instead of the bare boobies. Equally sexy, and far less likely to get me disqualified smile.gif

    this is as far as the concept is gonna go. I'll probably end up changing a few things in the model stage, but I think it's time to move on. I tried to make her more badass lookin... dont think I succeeded like I wanted too. That's what I get for using photos of nice girls for my female studies lol. May give her a less human, more demonic face when it comes time to sculpt. Expect 3d action soon. Crits always much appreciated!

    Just looking at this again, and I noticed the hands are a tad masculine. It may be the direction you were heading, but figured I'd point it out just in case :P
    I also prefer the horns from the previous head a lot more than the new one, just for the fact that 4 horns seemed to be a nice number instead of just horns for hair. Also the shape and flow was much nicer. The head looks a little big as well.
    In contrast to the rest of your character, the corset seems a little out of place. It could potentially be the style of the corset that is making it look wrong to me.

    I'm not feeling the corset either much tbh.. the original design looked great and natural feeling, but the corset seems more clubber chick.. I preferred the rock bra eariler if you have to cover her up, or even some body paint might be enough to avoid offence..

    btw one of the machine entries last year had uncovered boobs.. maybe you could run the design past fred to be sure?
