I finally got around to working more on this model: https://mywebspace.wisc.edu/vandeweghe/web/monster1.jpg

Here's what I have so far on the front arm/hand. I'm pretty happy with it so far, but there are still a few places that need some refining/reworking:

Hey I remember this project. Looking great so far :) Aren't his arms a little bit skinny though, or were you going more for a T-Rex arm kind of look?

Looks cool to me

I hope textures will make it more organic as well.

Update:

(Larger version)

Working on connecting the head to the arms. It's been through a lot of changes so far, but it's slowly getting to a point where I'm happy with it. I haven't put any detail work into the upper shoulders/back yet, just shaping it so far. And please don't mind the ribcage/shoulderblades...they're mainly placeholders for now.

Damn you Massassian guys, I read that as MANTRAIN instead of Martain. Also had to write an email to a guy named Martin today and wrote ManTrain instead.

ps, I really like that design, cant wait to see the finished version
The tips at the end of shoelaces are called "aglets". Their true purpose is sinister.

Sweet deal, nice job so far. Get any inspiration from a rancor? ;O

Grismath: The whole alien thing has been stuck on the back burner for quite a while. It's something I'd love to work more on in the future, but between a job and school I just don't have enough time to get anything worthwhile done on it.

Echoman: My current plan is for him to have 6 limbs, his two front arms and then 4 back "feet". Look at the link in my first post for a better explanation.

money•bie: I actually didn't think about the rancor at all while making the head, but it just naturally turned out surprisingly close to it and I was too lazy to change anything.


No updates for now, but here's a better render of what I have:
