Description
Me and a classmate have worked on him for quite a long time, and finally, 80 metres tall and 16,000,000 (yes 16 MILLION) polygons heavy, BEHOLD! CTHULHU!As Björn had nothing else to do, I wanted to learn ZBrush, we just happened to have a school project that was pretty much "make whatever you want", and both Björn and I likes monsters (who doesn't?), we decided to team up and make something huge. So we made Cthulhu. Because he's big and cool. Enjoy!
Maya, ZBrush and Photoshop were used
Breakdown: [link]
What have we done?
David (me): Matte painting, rough mesh of Cthulhu, two different wing alphas, the cliff, the lighthouse, base concept, sculpted both hands (of wich one is a bunch of tentacles and little else)
Björn: Major muscle groups, lots of Zbrush sculpting, face and head, comp, rendering, lighting, texturing, also some concept

Not bad at all but he looks too lumpy and muscled in my opinion, everything i've seen and read suggests he'd be more smooth with relatively intact wings.
Very good for what it is but I (personally) don't get the Cthulhu vibe from him.

Yup, this isn't the original Cthulhu concept at all, I've personated him to be more "undead" and athletic ^^
Thanks for the comment!
