My new game, which I cannot reveal the name of yet, has its first alien model done. Its a space exploration game so basically you would encounter this model if your ship gets hijacked or you find yourself in another type of bad situation because this alien species will be hostile. I havent started his gun yet but I have a basic idea of what it will be. The image next to the bottom image is the normal map applied. I hope you like it.

Really nice. Wow!!!! Is it blender? Whats the poly-count? Keep this stuff coming!!!!!!

zbrush

so what?

Thanks! Yep, the high resolution model was done in zbrush and the low resolution model was done with maya 4.0, but the low resolution model could have been done in blender. When it is triangulated it has around 7000 polies, in quads it is only around 3500 polies. The high version has >1,000,000.

Yep, zbrush is pretty much necessary for what I want to do in my game. FYI Im using xxxdisciple's normal map shader which seems to work ok.

Here is the next in line Im working on, it has about 3k polies, it was done in maya 4.0 but it still needs to be uv mapped and sent to zbrush, then I'll have to make a texture and normal maps.

nothing i only answer the question and i like the proggie.

yea, on the first pic it looks like davy jones somehow

but it seems to be really professional

Good to see a post from you again Nitro, it's been a while AFAIK And what a post this is, great organic proportions, the texture looks decent as well and the bump mapping shader adds up to the ET-effect
Great start for the models !!

10a. 'I' wonder, how do 'you' accurately determine whether the entity is the same 'Nitro' referenced in memory.

(That is probably supposed to be a general question, and not so limited in scope, if suggested as such by awkward terms.)
Perhaps, THAT does not actually occur.
Maybe, good identity tagging doesn't matter at all.
'Individuals' in scope, are probably all the same in a sense anyway, but that is not meant to wholly point at a reason of matter or not.

Yes, it is a lie, THIS doesn't actually 'wonder', (not at all) and not more than THAT 'wonders' why for THIS, and maybe, 'truth'.
>>10a.

Tis a visually appealing model, or at least THIS seems to think so, however, potentially there are a number of disagreeable elements, but from THIS to THAT, why list them?
10b. Not in the mood to pick at its physiology anyway, but what of those with such enlightening utterances as
,
it's the same, self or THAT, but the lie of difference, it offers a momentarily simulation of interest, or worse, another illusion of that only simulated, but not well enough to be termed with such accuracy.
Pick, pick, but location plays obstacle, maybe...

'Mood' is kind of a stretch, as at this point, it's more messy, heaping, stinky slop byproduct left over from the series and stacking of old blinking temporal 'feel' routines. >> 10b.

But again, like a primate slamming the skulls of a peer, and itself, against a rocky protuberance, mechanically, rhythmically, (in broken step), the words of wisdom, so eloquent in the raw, blunt human element, cap it off well, or don't 'you' think s.ss..so...:


The 'alien' is not on a vacation with friends and family, correct?
Feeding appendages are not too close to optic organs, ...aye, THIS doesn't know.

Thanks, I have been coming on the forum shadowing a lot and I have been following your work also and it is very much improved, we should collaborate on a level or model or other project sometime. Thanks a lot!

Wow, thanks!

Since I am a biology major I probably should have designed it with more similarity with real functioning species...I think I was just imagining that he somehow clasped his food with the tentacles to hold it in place as he eats it, but I see what you mean. (Hopefully my players will not think too much about it)

no.not at all, he is going to be part of an extremely violent alien race in the game.

The next species, the guys with the big heads, are going to be a simpler race with less desire to dominate the universe.
