Just for fun

duncan · May 2012

Hay everyone. Probably shouldn't have created a thread for this but I saw a rad piece of art by "Ape74"

(His art page...http://ape74.deviantart.com/) and decided to put my own spin on top of someone elses ahhhhh spin.... Still plenty of work to go but....whatever just gonna have fun.

LAST UPDATE: I swear!

I Popped a bit of extra light on the sign and also dropped down the horizontal lines going over the whole thing which I hope helps

I swear THIS is the last update.

That's awesome, Damnit Duncan stop being so awesome

how did you achieve the facehugger inside? is it just in the texture or is there a mesh inside and some schmancy translucency going on?

jmiles · May 2012

haha awesome Duncan.. made me giggle a bit XD

STRIKER · May 2012

looks awesome man. really like the shadow of the creature on the inside

duncan · May 2012

Thanks guys

@ ScudzAlmighty: hehe thanks. Yeah, There is a little Facehugger inside and some translucency on the Egg. If I can ever pull my finger out I would like to do a little interactive animation on it.

Updated the lighting, some texture stuff, added a new Facehugger, added slime to the floor. Still gotta add the sign and egg slime.

cool beans!

Saman · May 2012

Cool! You should add more translucency to the egg though(almost glowing a bit).

duncan · May 2012

Thanks dudes.

@ Saman: do you mean you want to see it glow, or it currently looks like it is glowing?

Started playing with the sign.

I think you should make the sign more creepy looking, having the ultra realistic egg and then the sign like that it sort of looks out of place. Or maybe not even have the sign at all, the egg is awesome on its own, could just title the piece Free Hugs in reference to the original artwork.

The price went up

I really wanted a hug to

chrisradsby · May 2012

Awesome

I like the sign, it's the humorous side of the whole thing , that it's cute. I like it!

duncan · May 2012

Thanks everyone.

@ Bobbetybob: I get you but I sort of dig the toony sign. I will probably regret it though

@ Darkleopard: If you ask really nicely I am sure they could sort a free one out for you

.

@ chrisradsby: Thanks

.

Gonna call it done coz I am sick of looking at something that was just supposed to be a bit of quick fun.

Thanks everyone.

Lol Nice.

How long is was this quick fun?

Did you forward this to Ape74?

EDIT:
Instead of making a new post, I'd just clarify what I meant was if he enjoyed the "remake". Not for permission wise but It's good to know he was okay with It.

Also thanks for the fun time-frame I am just always curious.

dii · May 2012

Such an awesome piece! I know you called it done but I think popping the sign out a bit more with light would help the picture.

duncan · May 2012

hahahah ok.

@ $!nz: Thanks, I think it took about a week or two around work and extra. and yeah Ape knows and tells me he is fine with it so thanks goodness for that.

@ dii: Yeah thanks man. I Popped a bit of extra light on it and also dropped down the horizontal lines going over the whole thing which I hope helps. Thanks for the feedback man.

@ Jones1: Thanks, but forgive me, what is "Start slowly" I am not a man in the know

Well true to form I decided my last post was NOT actually my last post so here it is :poly136:
