Hey guys,
I have been keeping track of the last 3 competitions, and thought it was about time I join one and have a crack at it. Once I find a scanner I shall upload my concept.
I'm going for an insect like tortured being. Easier to explain when you see it. And by that i meant evil giant tortured insect +1
Good luck everyone.
So here is the concept i was talking about.
Going to make the head thinner so it fits with the body more.

I'm going to redo all these as part of an Introduction to drawing assessment for Qantm. So i will upload them next thursday when they are due. Critism please, i know the legs are to be bulkier, but any other critz?
Also that hole in the chest will be a place for the creature to store spare organs it finds inside other living beings. Its way of survival basically.
Re-concepted. Also have the side and back, but wont put those up. This demonstrates his look enough.

As you can see the face has been altered dramatically legs are bulky like suggested (Great suggestion). Will being modelling soon enough.

Nah those lines are all done in Ink. Though the program i'd use to get lines like that would be StreamLine. Its a marcomedia program, really good for vectorising lines that have been drawing.
I didn't want to make this guy too scary as i was thinking of him (it) as a playable character. Your objective to survive by collecting organs from living beings to shove in your chest so they can degrade into nutrients. That is why the ribcage is currently empty. *He'd be pretty hungry at the moment.*
Think of Abe in the Oddworld series as a good example of weak that people relate to. As odd as the character is, he still makes for a good playable character.
Maybe you could make it so he is a baby monster in a world full of major monsters, trying to get to his Mother :) Each monster you defeat you take a part of and add it to your own abilities or something (like taking an arm from a big monster you kill and add it, so you have an extra arm to kill things with :)
Because it's a little kid (in essence) you can do the whole fright thing (kids are scared of the smallest things) so you'd play on the whole fear of the unknown, eyes in the darkness etc.
Yeah but i've already shotguned big giant evil zombie insect!
