Great start. I want to do a production model of a prawn! i love how they look.
I see some proportion issues.
The eyes need to be bigger, that's how the animators caught alot of emotion with the prawns havin no mouth. His shoulders are too broad too. He looks too meaty, the prawns are very scrawny creatures.
I love it though, going to be watchin this closely
@Calabi: Screen shots from trailers and officially released pictures. In other words I'm kinda winging allot of it.
@wester: The eyes are half closed atm, they are actually pretty big if I open up the eyelids.
The shoulders do look a little wide. I'll push them in abit when I've put together most of the hight poly.
haha cool=) was thinking about modeling one of those but you got it first=).. really like it so far.. how about pushing the crouch area forward a bit? but leaving the hips where they are..
and yeah, spoiler alert^^ but hey, everyone have seen the movie right?
this is looking good- I recall distinctly while watching the movie thinking "God what a nightmare to model and animate"- there must have been 100 moving parts just on their friggin' faces! One of the nest realised aliens for a long while in terms of culture and behaviour
Didn't have the net for a while and got some more done on this guy.
Retopo + Bake
Sitting at somewhere around 10,000 tris.. can't be bothered to open up max to get an exact figure right now.
Got to add the strap keeping the jacket closed then it's onto the diffuse.
The Model looks good, but as for the texture I think everything needs to be desaturated a little, and as well as adding more small scratches to his carapace. A little variation in the the green colour on different parts of him would look good as well, like a slightly darker colour on his legs

More sculpting progress.

@Stertman: Go ahead and model what you want.. Don't let me stop you.
@Ihazard: Going for the whole shabang. Just a sculpt would be boring
Looking great btw!

However, I think he looks a lot shorter than in the movie. Or maybe it's just me.
Keep it up!
Awesome model!
