Hey everyone! Working on another skin, this time I'm working with a long time workshopper and friend of mine, Sparkwire! Been easing him into doing more skins for the game, and this competition seemed like a good time to work together on something! He'll be doing the sculpting and baking of the skin, while I'll do the primary texturing! We volley-balled a concept back and forth, I'll show you all that now!
The concept is built around the general idea of a space alien like John Carpenters "The Thing", something that takes on the appearance of things to blend in with other societies, but, we can't just make it the thing, and we can't make it purely a visual reference to The Thing, or else we're breaking the rule of "No References to other IP's". Gotta make a skin that services itself and not something else, y'know? Anyway, another blabbing, here's the concept so far!
First draft was much more 'Thing' like, was quickly axed with a less infringey paintover from Spark
which soon became
which then evolved into a more refined and sophisticated / readable version of the same concept
along with this, I did two different accompanying images so it's easier to translate to a three dimensional space and subsequent bake
and a close up of some super simplified greebles!
Alrighty! That's everything so far. We'd both love to hear some suggestions and potential criticism below! This should be a really fun one to do, should end up great!

sculpt is just a blockin ofc
almost done with the alien guy, might simplify some parts but pretty pleased with his character so far
