Primate RPG

This was a doodle I was messing around with on Substrata.  I took some of the archetypes in fantasy rpg games and made them different primates.  There's a gorilla barbarian, a orangutan sorcerer, a chimpanzee knight, and a lemur archer.  Its done in pencil and ink.  It didn't really come out how I envisioned it, but was fun to do.  I'd totally play a goofy fantasy game like this, maybe they're fighting against the evil human horde or something.

Star Nosed Mole-Man finished

Finally finished this guy and submitted it for the Substrata art book.  This was supposed to be a quick sculpt, but I ended up spending a long time on it.  I polypainted him in zbrush and then did some touchup work in photoshop.

Star Nosed Mole Posing

Did some more sculpting work and then used transpose master to start to pose him.  I had the layer button checked when I did this so it created a new layer on each subtool.  This way I can always go back to the unposed version.


 polypainting....

added a new shoulder pad and other stuff.

Star Nosed Mole Sculpting

The deadline was extended for the Substrata book so I'll try to sculpt my star nosed moleman for it.  I also threw on some polypaint really quick on his face.  Its fun working on the slimy face, but its gonna suck to sculpt all that hair...

....edit
originally was just gonna do a bust, but ended up working on the whole body.  i'll also try to do the shovel/axe.  here's a little update.

Star Nosed Mole

Here's a drawing I'm working on of a star nosed mole creature that is a guard for an underground mole civilization or something.  I started this for the Substrata book, I'm also working on a sculpt of his face in zbrush.  Hope he doesn't end up looking like zoidberg.

edit..........
another wip, updated his armor to be made out of insect parts, including a sexy centipede skirt.

Vermicious Knid Sculpt wip

I spent some time at a coffee shop sculpting this guy this weekend.  someone left a wacom tablet there a couple weeks ago and one of the people working there tried to give it to me, but i don't really need another one.  what kind of idiot loses a wacom tablet?  i can understand losing a pen.

this guy is looking pretty rough, but i wanted to get all  4 of the willy wonka monsters started, before i really finished one of them.  i'm also working on the oopma loompa sculpt.

edit.... didn't like the look of his face so i did a paintover of some changes i might make.

edit #2..........  after i did the paintover i thought it would be funny if he was giving the finger with the hand on his tail.

Substrata

I'm taking part in Paul Richard's fantasy art book project called Substrata.  http://www.autodestruct.com/substrata.htm

I'm working on a lost, old man with no memory and a big hole in his head.  I'm thinking he was a spelunker and found something underground that lead to this.  I'm just making it up as i go.  I did a sketch of him and his mount and I'm starting some zsculpts and paintovers to refine the design.  i'll also work on his weapons, his arch enemy, and some creatures hopefully.
