Default Drawing Jam #55 :: Man Eating Plants




Man Eating Carnivorous Plants

Deadline: 27th of June 2011 at noon GMT




Lets get back to nasty monsters now, your challenge these next two weeks is to create a plant species that has evolved a rather unfortunate habit of eating people. Think carefully about how they would go about snaring their prey, deception or speed?


More information::

Canrivorous Plants
Triffids

    Cool topic. I really appreciate the variation between environment kind of topics and also the character ones for those who would rather do Environments or characters like me!

    This is my first time thinking about doing the challenges here on CGHub, and it looks like a really awesome way to enhance your 2D Digital skills. I hope I can participate in this one, but we'll see with all my exams coming up. Thanks!

        My plant so far, pops up in tropical climates and releases an hallucinogenic so people think they are going to paradise if they climb into its center.

        Needless to say. They don't.

            I'm a 3d character animator looking to improve in painting(long time lurker, and 1st time poster). Heres my initial concept.... a tree/plant w/ a seductive woman(possible made out of plants) to entice men. I still want to add elements of a venus fly trap, cactus, and a vileplume(pokemon).... and possibly a ginger root ala pan's labyrinth.

            Solo: Heh, you have to be quick with these things

            Tumtum: Nice start, looks like you've got the right shape for luring in men there lol. Just don't go overly pornographic on it or I think it will detract from the concept as a whole

            Cornelius: Nice sketch, not seeing how it lures people in but as a first idea it looks nice

              you guys are shocking!

              My idea for this challenge was a plant that exales a narcotic gas, that puts the victim into a stupor. Then, the plant attacks with her tentacles, holding her victim. Her digestion is made by secreting a strong acid juice

                  Default A couple ideas.


                  I thought this was sort of a silly contest, so I came up with some silly ideas. Either way I go I'll add a bit of a narrative to the image so the plants are in context and the viewer can imagine the story.

                  The first one lures the unwary with lollipops.
                  The second makes pretty music with it's bells.
