I thought it's common knowledge from all the BTS material and Scott interviews that they only settled for the human legs because as hard as they tried, no other solution has worked. They had a guy standing on his hands, they had ideas on using two people, and so on, but visibility was way too bad already. Also you were…
Very nice stuff Jelmer. Nicely polished reel editing and rendering too. The expressions on the first 2 creatures are really cool, the chicken thing looks a little odd though, like it's grinning in a dumb fashion - I preferred the look of the coloured painted head concept for it later in the reel. The poses are good too,…
Hey Polycounters, Im designing several creature busts in my evenings after work and thought it would be a good idea to see if i can get some feedback and try and improve as i go along as i am by no means what i would call a good painter. Anyway if you see anything as i keep posting that i could improve on please shout and…
Hi Polycounters! My name is Tommy and I jumped into the 3D world 2 years ago, haven't been having time to focus as much on it as I wanted to because of various reasons. Warming up again now before I start at CG Spectrum in November, in between that and doing project lead on my own game, I dive as much as I can into self…
The creak of the old door opening breaks the silence. It’s about as beaten down as the man opening it. The hunter lays down his weapons on the nearby table. He never keeps them too far away from him. “Another day, another dead end. One of these pathetic creatures has to eventually have some information that I need.…

I want to make a little experiment with this new workflow that I've been thinking of on the last few days, that is start with a simple lore as a base concept, and adapt my…
"The earth was a beautiful creature, her rivers flowed and her forests hummed, her beauty was hypnotic. No creature was more captivated than her guardian, a great mass of wood, stone and life. As long as he could remember the earth was their for him as he was there for her, until one day mankind appeared and changed the…
Yeah, so I was on google the other day and found a few illustrations from "Dinotopia: The World Beneath" and decided to do a little modeling. I'm trying to stay true to the source material, although I have had to make slight changes here and there. I likely won't start detailing the main creature until after I finish with…

I love this creature! It has so much personality and I kind of want to put a saddle on it so I can ride it around the city. The anatomy in the legs is great and the chicken flap wings are to die for. Are the toenails their own subtool? If they aren't I would consider breaking them apart because in the top photo it almost…
