competition #14 - crazyfool

crazyfool · 07-07-2008, 06:55 PM

im thinking a honey bee used as heavy artillery. they fly in and bomb the bejesus outta everything. Im trying to push armour onto her frame in a sort of futuristic but still biological form but yet keep the insects original shape.

heres a quick concept i done. will update soon with a more detailed and final image

how i believe this has a lot of potential i loved the armor you made for her cant wait to see this in 3d

cheers, heres a low poly version at 975 tris, left some tris for alphas around the head but i think its coming along nicely. next up is the high poly and im gonna go quite intricate so could take a while but i will keep you all posted

low poly looks pretty good to me, cant wait to see what you do with the high poly.

crazyfool · 07-11-2008, 01:46 AM

High poly so far but i dont like the shape as its not as fluent as the concept. ahhhh back to the drawing board

. its gonna take me a while I think but will be worth it in the end. I plan to make most of it in maya and then zbrush in alcoves, bolts, scratches etc.

I like the concept art for this one, and the low poly looks good. I'm a little confused about its role, though. Artillery usually shoot projectiles from long range. Is he going to be shooting something? I don't see anything in the concept art that seems to suggest a large gun built into the bee somewhere...

Definitely looking forward to this one, though!

sorry I should have explained it better. the projectile will be the stinger which she can fire much like a rocket launcher. but I am still a lil undecided on whether to make her a bee, a hornet or a wasp. gonna look into them in a bit more detail today.

hopefully high poly will be back on track during the weekend, uh-oh back to work!

rrguitar · 07-11-2008, 12:15 PM

well if you wanted it to be a little more realistic then you wouldnt want a bee firing its stinger unless you wanted it to be like a suicide bomber, I'd say a wasp or hornet would probably more appropriate

crazyfool · 07-11-2008, 03:05 PM

yea I know I got them mixed up like an idiot hehe. but yea I am now making her a yellow jacket wasp which is a very aggressive type of wasp and as it is a wasp, MULTIPLE STINGERS!!!!!

but anyway heres my sketches and concepts, I did them at work under the radar so sorry on roughness. Im really loving the colour schemes on them so will probably do something with that.

final concept coming soon and then its high poly time ..........again. :s
