Dominance War II - ChazM

ChazM

Better late than never. Had the flu over the weekend but now I got to git da party started!!

Wanted to do a stealthy, tracker-type dealie-do so here's some thumbs:




more to come, need to nail down proportions and front/side views.

Japhir

cool! I like the right one better. It isn't really far in the future, but who knows, maybe we will all live in some kind of middle aged alien world by then :P
cool stuff.

The idea behind this guy is that he basically resorts to low-tech means of finding/hunting his target. While he will have some high tech gadgetry i.e. grenades, stasis mines, etc. His armor is mostly natural (tough hide from a extradimensional reptile thing as shoulder pad). That way I can have a nice blend of futuristic and tribal origins for his species.

And I fully intend on his main weapon, the glaive, to be appropriately "techie" with built-in weapon systems and doo-dads. Just need to explore it a bit further.

Cheers!

Hey, cool to see you're joining the game. I know this guy is in his early preliminary stages, but I noticed the neck might look even cooler if it was shortened up 1/3. Here's a quick pic- I hope u don't mind a paint over. Besides that, looking forward to seeing more goodness

word, I'm still working on final proportions so I will definitely throw this into the mix and see how my goulash turns out. Thanks!

Dusty

If you shorten his neck then you have to make him longer in other places. =================D

Ok some updated images. I wasn't happy with my initial design so I took it back to the beginning and went somewhere different. I think this is more suitably "dominating" so yea...

The idea behind this guy is that he's a big magma lizard and burns things with his magma-ness. I did one version with the sleeker, more agile body but ultimately favored a more hulk-like approach. Weapon thumb to follow...

Pizza Explosion

Mmm... magma-ness...

I like the magma-y look and how the black pieces are like formed shards of armor. Much cooler than your older concept. Kepe up good work!

Sage

looks great

Theres a nice fire salamander in the "Arthur Spiderwick's Guidebook to the Fantastical World Around You" art book, which would make for a good reference for this guy if you can track it down. I'll try and get a scan of it if you can't find it anywhere.
