I love creature designs, especially the ones for movies. Austin introduced me to Iain McCaig's artbook,
Shadowline, which is extremely inspirational to me. McCaig is probably best known for his work on the "Star Wars" prequels, but he's done a ton of stuff for movies in the science fiction and fantasy genre.
Monsters and creatures will always have a special place in anyone who loves cinema, animation, comics, and anything cool. I like to add cracks , textures, and horrific elements to pump up the gross factor, and the sense that you can actually touch these things (and it would not be very pleasant to do so).

These guys have a calamari-like and even "rectal" quality to them - two things I don't find very pleasant.
gross...
ReplyDelete:D
Diggin it, rectal and all.
ReplyDeleteWait, let me rephrase that....
Excellent monster pieces, sir. There's an octo something or another that makes a cameo in Orion that reminds me of your designs a little. I think you'd really dig on that comic, come to think of it - has that Vi flare to the story and characters.
dude. what's this for???
ReplyDeletelooks creepy!
Uuuugh that first one with the little insect legs in front is so gross!! I can picture them twitching around and pulling stuff into its mouth.
