Description
In parralel of Artrage, i do some tests with Alchemy, i really like the feeling of this software, and the possibility to break the habits and automatism we all could have. This is the first concept of a serie of creatures i have in mind. The next one very soon.Related content

Ah...
This is a gorgeous creation. I don't think I've seen a similar style before. The high contrast between the white highlights and the black really make the whole piece jump out.

I didn't get the see-through parts first, but then i looked at it for some more time, and it hit me!
This image is something new, something higher

That is just... VERY cool! Reminds me of Wayne Barlowe's stuff, but more latex-ish

ouioui je l'ai essayé, je l'ai meme adopté, c'est super interessant. au début c'est très déroutant aussi parceque ca casse les habitudes qu'on a prises, que ce soit avec photoshop ou painter mais finalement c'est pas plus mal. je trouve que ca permet d'aller un peu plus loin.
en general je fais mes rough sous alchemy et aprés je les importe dans photoshop pour retravailler mes formes de bases aléatoire. l 'ennui c'est que il existe pas la pipette encore ...un peu comme les début d'artrage héhé
see ya

We je fais un peu comme toi, maintenant je passe de plus en plus de temps sous Alchemy et artrage, et je finalise sous toshop, pas de jaloux

le seul truc que je trouve dommage qu'il n'y ai pas avec alchémy ( ou alors je l'ai pas trouvé encore) c'est qu'on ne puisse pas revoir la taille du pixel, histoire de ne pas avoir de perte de pixel une fois sous photoshop car quand j'agrandi mon format ca fini par crenelé et c'est dommage car on se remet a retoucher le tout sous photoshop et parfois je me rend compte que je bouffe toute la spontaneité du soft par les retouches...faut trouver l equilibre

Ben quand tu sauve ton image tu l'exporte en PDF, puis tu l'importe dans Photoshop, a la resolutione que tu veux. En general je le fous a 6000 par 6000 en 300 DPI c'est deja enorme. Tu eux meme aller plus grand, tout depend de la limite de la ram de toshop.

Nice man really digging these fast pieces you're doing - shows just how well you have your lighting/texture theory down pat.. if thats the way to explain it 
Whats this Alchemy program?

Fantastic. I see some Barlowe in here, too (which is an awesome thing in my book) but the weird latex feel makes it all your own. Looking forward to the next one!

Hi Anthony, and thank you for the words, i'm a big fan of your work, stunning... Yes that is true i looked to Barlowe's works for the design, Pascal B and me worked on some creatures at the job and our main inspiration was Barlowe. But yes i had to find something different and special like this shader, to make it personal, hope i did it well. Cya

Hey, I'm a huge fan of *yours*, sir! Your Naruto environment shots are a benchmark for what equals excellent concept work, far as I'm concerned. You're a monster painting machine!!
You definitely took this beastie in your own direction. I think one of the reasons I thought "Barlowe" right off the bat was because you've done such a great job making it feel genuinely strange. Barlowe's one of the few artists (in my opinion) who can regularly make critters that truly seem "alien". Since he's such a good touchstone for the outre, when anyone hits that same spot, it feels natural to invoke his name. He's gone from being an individual to being an adjective!
It's a hard mark to hit, man, but you did it and then some.

You totally right about Barlowe, he creates the faintness so well, breaking all the codes.
Thank you Anthony for the compliments concerning the Naruto stuff, you really glad me

You absolutely earned every word, sir. Full stop. I love your personal work, too.

Bloody hell, loving it; never seen an idea like that before, could change people's idea's forever - even if that seems like a bit over the top, it's changed the way I think in an instant.

Oh, wow, that is one rad creature design! I love the 'liquid' body shape and the glimmering effects!
