Hi all

This is gonna be my first competition at all.

Im going with a sidescroller shooter boss, inspired by r-type and ikaruga.

something about his bio:

The monster is keeping an area inside a huge space station under construction, this area is called "sector eight". He is something like a robotic giant squid equiped with lots of cannons and rockets, he also possesses four giant tentacles who can melee attack.

Still working on his name

And here the concept/mocap... still a wip, but the overall shape ill stay like this.



Hope I can handle this in time

thank you all

Very interesting, it's like the Matrix meets War of the Worlds.

Like the concept, look forward to more.

Hey that's pretty dope man. Gotta love the side scrollers. I like the design you've got going there. It would be kinda neat of when you get around to texturing there's scorch marks and stuff on the wall from previous challengers who have fallen before it's might.

It's kinda like a big floating mechanical Man-o-war jellyfish

[BloodRobot]

yeah I remember this guy from the Matrix.

[cox]

ssup guys!

I've changed some stuffs on the concept, due to similarity with matrix's sentinel and war of the worlds tripod .

Model is almost done, still have to clear simmetry edges... 40% is already unwraped, and polycount is something about 1300 tris.

Colors and pose are totally wip!





Hope you guys like it!

Damn. Nice lighting, nice shapes!

Looks very cool so far dude

[Codeman]

Very nicely done.

[Natace]

Woh! that's saweeeet!

Looks good. Only thing is the tentacle closest to the camera looks a bit harsh as far as curving is considered. Could you get away with one more edge loop?
