"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.

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.
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...
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.
Despite the extreme top heaviness I especially like the upright posture
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>!>??!
Love the ape shapes.
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?
Also, I desperately need color scheme assistance. Crits in that category especially appreciated.
Example of colors I'm talking about. Those easily offended by bronze castings of genitalia be warned
what if your second pair of hand would have some kind of horns or bones sticking out oe as a plate, so it could slam with them, the others to dead?!
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.
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
Flesh it out and then smash the modelling!
Your stuff is just getting better and better, man.

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.
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!
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.

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