Made a quick ref sheet showing some of the skin textures and crystal formations I'll be looking at moving forward. I've been doing some research into particular crystal/mineral formations and learned just how many forms the same mineral or crystal can take when growing. In particular the mineral, Chalcanthite. It really…
I was thinking they could be secretions from the skin that sort of built up and hardened on the surface over time leading to the crystal growths. Certainly something I need to think on more. Once I reach the texturing stage, I'd like to tinker with a multitude of color palettes. Earth tones with amethyst colored crystals…
This looks amazing. You got some really nice transitions from the rock to the grain to the crystals. Only thing I have to say is that the area around the nose looks at little low res compared to the rest of the model. And that a lot of your crystals look like they have the same amount of roughness and could use a bit more…
This looks awesome. The only thing I'd say is that you should make the crystals on the legs look more integrated into the skin (as you have on the shoulder area).
