Default 3D Jam #2: Nightmare - Mindrot


Hi all.

This is my entry. I'm not sure if I'll be able to finish the competition or not as I'm kinda limited by time , either way I'm hoping to have some fun

I'm really not sure what to call this, so I'll stick to "Nightmare" for now. I was kinda inspired by Cthulhu imagery, the occult and some other random monster stuff.

It might get a robe and more tentacle goodness... I have a bunch of ideas floating around it's just a matter of sorting them out as I don't want to throw everything I think of at this...

I'm looking forward to sculpting this soon. I'll keep posting... hopefully



'til later...

Very cool concept/presentation. I found it from my experience that the model never get's that good as the original sketch. So I'm looking forward to seeing how you tackle it! Good luck!

Thanks Bad_Koala...

I've actually had something like this in mind for a while now (perhaps less grotesque though) - so this jam was kinda ideal.

An update on the concept.

I'm thinking that I'll probably do a 3/4 version of this character, instead of going full torso.... anyway I'll see... tentacles to come....

Crits and suggestions more than welcome

Thanks JeremyKohar. That's what I was going for

I'll hopefully have a bit of an update to this soon and then it's on to the sculpting

Okay... concept's not 100% finished, there's mostly some clean up and such to be done. I think I'll leave it at this for now and get to the actual sculpting this weekend.

As usual, suggestions welcomed



...'til later

Though it's quite rough in areas, I'm happy with the concept.

I'm guessing more tentacles or some dark doorway to some void... or perhaps a maggot infested decaying body

Been thinking about how I'm going to sculpt this beasty... should have some modelling progress posted over the next couple of days

the concept is very cool.
don't add to much tentacles though, it will district from the very cool face and hands. Or perhaps just the tip of few ones coming out of the bottom of his coat?

Thanks... I originally planned on having long ones fanning out from under the coat but it seemed like too much when I roughed them in... I'll play around with the tentacles... erm... that just sounds bad

Roughed this in last night. Hoping to get more done today. Not going with any strict topology as this is just going to be a sculpt. Things like teeth, eyes, extra horns and tentacles will be added in as separate geometry once I've sculpted in some detail for placement.

I started roughing in some anatomy in ZBrush today. Will probably carry on for a bit more tonight.

The anatomy is still quite rough, so I'll start fixing that as well - though most of it will be hidden below the coat/gown thighy.

Comments welcome
