Description The manager of the jungle-hotel was angry. Only a week ago he bought a watchdog named Hector, a expensive doberman, to protect the hotel-area, but now it was missed...
Missed... he won't want to hear this damn word again since the disappearing of Jennifer Langley ... but than he heared something about a famous photomodel, that disappeared a month ago too... only a few kilometers away from his hotel.
He remembered the photo that was shot by a security-camera of the hotel and what it had depicted. Was it this mysterious beast? But the new doberman was a very well trained watchdog... and when this beast killed his new dog...? The whole thing turned slowly to something serious to worry about...!

Only a month ago Sucuriju killed large prey... Naomi Carleton , a famous supermodel... but for the giant serpent she was only a good meal and now completely digested, so Sucuriju was not very hungry now and not on the hunt.
But the reptile let not passing a good chance by... and as he swam across the river, he detected this dog, standing in the water and snarling on him... slowly Sucuriju approached the doberman... and Hector was able to saw only the snake's head emerged out of the water... only this small looking head... a unknown, but small animal for the watchdog and surely not a opponent for a doberman, that weight almost 40 Kg...
The poor dog did not saw the well camouflaged and submerged part of Sucuriju in the waves and reflections of the water... 200 Kg of massive sinews and muscles!
On the last few meters Sucuriju increased his speed and hit the snarling dog like a torpedo and when he seized Hector's head with his fangs, the victim's snarling turned into a surprised and fearful howling... but only for a second. It was silenced instantly as he dragged the dog violently into the deeper water, and with a fast turning over and a constricting coil around the chest he crushed the doberman's rips... a second coil followed around the victims neck... it was over in less than 30 seconds for Hector.

The dog disappeared in Sucurijus throad in 15 minutes. It was a welcome but small snack... in two or three months the serpent will hunt on larger prey again...!

-------------------------------------------------


Yes, my scaly darling prey on anything that he was able to overpower. This was the next work of my Sucuriju-series. A little "cliffhanger", not one of the big hunts (on two-legged prey) of my large friend...!
It was inspired by a annoying dog in my nighborhood... yes, a doberman called Hector. He barking all the day without a reason. How many times i wished to kill this annoying dog... In the reality it was not allowed to do so, but in the virtual world, i give this tiresome dog his deserved end now!


Technical side:

Done in DAZ 3D and PSP X again. This turned out different as planned again, because i get a unexpected effect during the first testrenderings. First it was planned, to set the virtual camera near the dog to get a point of view (POV) from the dogs position... but something surprising happened in the first testrenderings... Sucurijus's submerged body get nearly invisible in the water from this POV. All other objects below the water-surface remained still well visible.
First i thought, something is wrong with my new render-engine and/or my settings of the water, the ground, Sucuriju, the lights, shaders etc... but actually all was allright, the render-engine did exactly that, what it shall do to generate realistic looking results...
And my selfmade UV-map of Sucuriju did exactly what it shall do in reality too: Camouflaging this scaly predator in the water!
My UV-map of Sucuriju worked so frightening well, that every change of the light-settings etc. did not change the results significantly. Sucuriju remained well camouflaged in the color, waves and reflections of the water. Only his emerged head was well visible (see 'Camouflage' in my srap-folder)... this is that, what the poor dog had saw, just before his end...! He had saw only the serpents head... and not the part, that was submerged.
So i changed the camera-position to a a different POV behind Sucuriju, and here i found a point, where the snake's body is (with the help of a little, shadowless spotlight below the water-surface) better visible... for you, but not for the stupid dog!

Oh, lets see if i found him... "Sucuriju!.... Hey, Suci!"
Oh, he's behind this ferns and... Oh, i see the typical bulge in his middle-part... 90-60-90 i guess...
"Okay, Suci, i see, let me help you... the bikini-top of your last meal ist still tangled between your teeth... Okay, i got it.... Greedy fella... looks like Cup-size DD... juicy!"
"Fssssschhhhhffssssssh!" (Parseltounge, rough translation: "Let me digest, i am too lazy for games noooow!")

You see, 90% of his life he lay lazy around somewhere in the swamps. The other 10% is occupied with inviting hot girls to dinner

Hmmm... when i took a look on him... Yes, he have a crushing force of more than 100 PSI in his massive coils, long, needlesharp teeth, keen senses, he can swim fast as a fish, climb high trees, slither through the densest jungles... a first class ambush predator, perfectly adapted by the ecolution to the jungle, rivers and swamps... But he can't shot deadly laser-rays out of his eyes, changing his shape to whatever-he-want, destroy a mountain whith a whip of his tail or shield himself with a indestructible energy-field... he even can be (and was already) badly wounded, even killed by normal weapons... but for him it's all the same if the natives see a deity in him... when they sacrify women to him, he did not refuse this offer

as for my character; Basically the Goku of the naku world
your guy is going to have his work ct out for him no snake has ever caught this elusive Fox and if they did theyll only find a tree trunk in their coils Star has the power to teleport in times of danger, he wields a sword powerful enough to kill a dragon in one hit. and to top it all off, his most powerful weapon: The Mazinger Beam(the equivelent of the kamehameha wave)which he uses when he's done "Playing" with his opponents. Just hope he doesnt go into "ultra Divine" Form.

so in short he's like a combination of Okami Amaterasu, and super saiyan 4 Goku.(ok maybe i exagerate a bit

Hmmmm... unfortunately Sucuriju have no hands, otherwise he would use this thing in a battle: [link]

Advances: Make everything possible: Building up energy-fields, death-rays, dimension-shifts, timetravel, transformings of objects/lifeforms, creating antimatter... in short: From warming up of cold coffee to destroying of complete planets.
Needs only three 3D-cells for operate (unscrew the bottom for changing batteries)
Adapter for connecting it to a ZPM (ZeroPoint-Module) for manipulating complete galaxies is in developement.

Disadvances: The Users-Manual is lost... you have to try out the settings to find out the function of the almost endless possible settings.... can be turn out really dangerous for the user and his surroundings.
No safety-lever: If the rings are set and you press the putton by mistake or it fall down on the button... Zero-Setting is all yellow buttons in line between the two markers; this set the function to do nothing.
Emitter-base can become hot (the reason for the cooling-fins) due running some operations.
Setup of the code-rings take some time.

It'd be interesting to see this battle as a picture.

My guess is it'll end in a draw
Seeing as how they're both divine beasts
Though I doubt Star would lose he cheated death more time than I can count. Though there was one moment where he was killed but came back before crossing over to the other side.

Hehehe... yes, in "The Enemy Below" Sucuriju was very young and take a fluffy monkey in his not so tender embrace. Normally he prefers...hmmmm... bigger food

Can you do a young girl next? Like a child.

ancestorsrelic In reply to senshi05 [2008-07-17 18:41:08 +0000 UTC]

The youngest girl that Sucuriju hunted down was Christine Van Dyke , 18 years old.
Sucuriju did not distinguish between children or adults or between animals and humans... he knows only prey, that he can overpower and devour, and other creatures, that are too large for him. But showing this beast hunting, killing and swallowing children would surely infringe the DA-rules even for mature content and is even for me (as a monster-movie freak) a little bit too much... I never thought about this point before, but according to the "behaviour-settings", that i give my favorite ID-monster... yes, Sucuriju would even prey on children!

So can you have Sucuriju prey on a little girl?

ancestorsrelic In reply to senshi05 [2008-08-16 10:42:11 +0000 UTC]

Even if Sucuriju really would do it without any doubt, such a work would surely infringe the DA-rules, even for strictly mature content. And for myself, even if i love monster-movies, this is really a little bit too brutal and disturbing, so i will not do such a work.
I know, that Roger Corman showed in in his movie "Dinocroc", how a little preteen-boy get eaten by his monster, and i am really wondering, why this is movie get not R-rated in germany.
The other problem is, when i really would do such a work i would not know, how to continue my Sucuriju-series.... what would happen afterwards? I guess, Sucuriju would then have no chance anymore... they would depth-charge the river miles up and down with bombs and grenades and hundreds of police-man from the city, armed with machine-guns, would examining every square inch of the jungle.

ancestorsrelic In reply to Jellaboom [2008-05-24 11:19:48 +0000 UTC]

Yes, i think this POV works very well too. My first idea was, that the dog saw the whole serpent in the water, and did not recognize the danger. But after the first testrenderings with the amazing camouflage-results of Sucurijus UV-Map (i used a lot of photos of real green anacondas as pattern for it) i changed the story: The dog did not saw anything except the snake's head... it did not saw it coming... So the process on a work sometimes changes the story too.
Even the new POV worked only with a slightly lower opacity-level of the water-surface than planned and a little shadowless spotlight set below the water-surface behind the camera.
Reminds me to a story that a friend told me: He is a RC-model fan & build a model of a german WW-II u-boat, painted it in the "cool looking and colorful black, white & brown stripes and spottings" that he found of an old WW-II original-photo of a class XXI-boat... he almost lost his u-boat in a pond! After a short dive of only 15-20 meters length & 1 meters depth, he emerged again and was unable to saw his own model (almost 2 meters long!) in the water. After hours of searching he found it stucking somewhere in the reed... afte he had passed this site countless time during his search & did not saw it.
P.S. Thanks for the favorite!!
