low gravity beastie inspired by Salvadore Dali and my daydreaming of what animals might look like having evolved on a planet or moon with less than earth's gravity, expect more of these guys from me in the future

yes he's amazing! i love the colors you used. i was showing this to one of my coworkers (also a dali fan) and he fell in love with it. he's a 3D artist. he said wants to make it in a 3D program he thinks it's so cool you should check out his stuff

oh yes, he has so nice stuff there
love the one with the heron, had to it...
and tell him that he's welcome to draw (or render, or whetever you call it in 3D ) this guy if he wants to
of course, giving me credit as the creature designer, and showing me when he's done so i can see

i told him. he said he really wants to, i think he will as soon as he's done making trees for some other project, lol. i'll make sure he gives you the credit and stuff... and i'll keep harassing him to make it cuz i wanna see it in 3-D also. that would be uber neat cuz it's a beautiful design
beware the llama

Simply gorgeous. I adore the creature, very beautiful. it reminds me of a famous picture of elephants that are all elongated like that. But this is prettier<3

This is wonderful! Very imaginative and surreal - I love it! The starscape looks like it coulda took a while! XD
The creative is really something though, I'm totally in love with it! Especially the legs and frills. Lovely colours too!

beautiful and elegant- great creature design
My mind instantly flicks to how I would go about sculpting this The legs would pose an interesting challenge

thanks, glad you like it
yeah, i've thought about ways to sculpt this, and i think i'd like to do it one day, but the legs would maybe have to be reinforced with some heavy wire or something. i guess it depends on what materials were to be used.

pessimistic-orange In reply to thedancingemu [2006-10-10 16:17:25 +0000 UTC]
you're welcome
Personally I would go for a polymer clay with a garden wire and tin foil armature attached to a base

That's a great piece of creature design. Very different, so you're not likely to have seen anything like it. Brilliant.

I'm sitting here trying to school Teresa on what a low gravity beasty is, it's mating habits and it's habitat, all while she injures me and stabbs me with pens. this is made increasingly difficult because i have no idea what i'm talking about. though it is a beautiful creature, and a very well painted one.
