DWIV - 3D - Renaud Galand

Renaud Galand · Mar 2009

Just reserving my spot. Didn't choose the race yet. The only think I know is that I'll go for a stylised / more cartoony character this year. GOGO POLYCOUNT !

BoBo_the_seal · Mar 2009

Renaud Galand · Mar 2009

Very very first rough batch ideas. I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna use one of these. Next batch soon !

System · Mar 2009

2 Looks like super regal dignified demon! As does no.4

Definately loving those 2 and id love to see something less brutish more subtle!

Enderstaley · Mar 2009

Numbers 3 ad 4 get my vote! you do that in Alchemy?

Renaud Galand · Mar 2009

Enderstaley, yeah it's pure Alchemy. No photoshop yet

ThatDon · Mar 2009

Loving 2 man.

Slipstream · Mar 2009

2 looks really cool. I also like 5

Mezz · Mar 2009

Nice, I kinda like number 7, cause he's chillin' there, in between all the scarier and bigger ones :P Same with the one beside #4... which doesn't seem to get its own number.

And what is this Alchemy everyone is going on about? It looks pretty sweet, but I've never heard of it before today... is there somewhere I can get a hold of it?

peppi · Mar 2009

2, absolutely

EVIL · Mar 2009

2 rules!

Ged · Mar 2009

2 is nice but definitely a demon stereotype, Im looking forward to your next batch of thumbs

heres alchemy http://al.chemy.org/

FAT_CAP · Mar 2009

'Nother vote for 2 here aswell Renaud. I'm looking forward to seeing how this one fleshes out and how it works out if you decide to go with a more stylised approach to the modelling.

Belltann · Mar 2009

#5!

AimBiZ · Mar 2009

#2 I like!

Muzzoid · Mar 2009

Id say 8 as it presents forms that i cant link to any stereo type yet its visually appealing

.

leslievdb · Mar 2009

ah another Belgian ^^

2 and 5 look the best to me.
keep it up

Renaud Galand · Mar 2009

Just to show I'm still alive. I edited the first post with a few additionnal thumbs. I'll slow down this week (some freelance work) and re attack next week ! Still not sure where I am going, though

indian_boy · Mar 2009

2 and 10 kinda stick out to me

mat · Mar 2009

no. 11 has some fun potentialness

Xaltar · Mar 2009

I'll be different, I like 12. Good luck dude.

haZe · Mar 2009

4! Wouldn't mind seeing some monsters with a Maurice Sendak vibe.

Ged · Mar 2009

10 and 12 are interesting yeah

Belltann · Mar 2009

#5!!

Jeremy Wright · Mar 2009

2 and 11 are my favs. I like 2 more, though.

kite · Mar 2009

I like 2 but maybe do a few more thumbs to clean out the pipes

wretchedgoat · Mar 2009

i think it would be funny to see a few of #12 flying around #4

StJoris · Mar 2009

Nice use of alchemy Renaud, I especially like #14, he's much more elegant than the rest

He would make for a great scout.

Kamui · Mar 2009

updates please! Just checked out your other thread and you have some really good looking sculpts!

kendo · Mar 2009

I like 10 but wonder if it would look alot better if the pilot was situated lower down inside the cockpit also the glass bubble enclosure doesnt look like it will work.

Sir Gimp · Mar 2009

Love your work man, 2 and 11 for me

Renaud Galand · Apr 2009

Hi all,
after a couple of weeks of hesitation, no ideas, etc. I came out with the idea of a little demon who is too shy to show himself/fight because of his enormous Hornes (he should even get some sort of "crutches/stands" for his hornes

). He's not as strong as the other demons, so he decided to build up an exoskeleton from another fat demon. I removed the head and a part of the chest to create a trone/cockpit made of bones 'n skull and will control the big guy using his own tendons and some chains. The big guy is still in the design process.

This time he won't miss the party !

Brain from "Pinky and the Brain)" was also an inspiration for this little guy.

Anyways, we'll see how far I can go with this idea

Zsphere concept !

Rough sculpt (still veeeryyy WIP) :

*updated image below*

nrek · Apr 2009

Very cool Renaud, I like the little story behind the idea just as much as I like the sculpt :poly121:. Only thing that kinda bothers me is that hard vertical edge in the pec muscles, it almost makes them look more like shoulder blades. Keep it up, I cant wait to see the rest of the model.
