Well, I've made a super heroine and a real guy so far, so I figured it's time to throw in my creature entry into my portfolio. I wanted to avoid cliches (grotesque, deformed, etc) and go for a more elegant kind of creature (hence the title deity). Partially inspired by the Cthulu mythos and Angels from the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, I did a rough sketch and started modeling. Base mesh around 5000, in about a couple hours, and started doing zbrush. I kinda want his surface details to look like the Heavy Metal character below (organic but armored plated look), anybody have any suggestions where I might take him? I'm also going for a semi-humanoid anatomy as well.
Btw, he's more of a space-floating being so pardon the odd legs. When he needs to land, I figured he'd impale the ground with those spike / tendrils as he moves.
