uhhh havnt checked the poly count yet

well 530 triangles total

 

[tee.dubs]

lol i love the tail, and at 530 the poly count could be worse.

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

lol yeah
just the paws left, going to be real simple

 

[SasuhKun]

Join_Spectating: Sorry, but.. I never saw a flying skull spirit as a critter before. On Zelda, they're actually a enemy. Hmm..

Edit: Which means your model would be a good contribution to zelda maps, since it is really similar. Only a detail or too are not. If the fire was brighter...

Tbh, I never saw a flying skull spirit before

 

[SasuhKun]

Well, I did.

 

[tee.dubs]

they can be a critter and an enemy at the same time. as long as they arent menacing in any way, it's fine. isn't it? i hope so.

 

[Killabong]

my submission to the contest is a bat. yes, i know there is already a bat in the hive, but this one is not one of the giant bats, just a normal bat flying around in caves and so on.

 

[D a w n]

the eye area of your bat should be a new geoset without any transparancy and the material of the wings should be twosided.
Oh and the unwrap of the body could be a tad better( the light side is at the botten right now, but should be on top, because the light comes from above aswell.

 

[Devine]

Needs a horn... maybe I should redo the face to get this right, idk.
Also, polycount.
Edit: looks best from the side.

 

[Mulgrim]

heads up, might not finish the texture and animations in time, but im motivted enough to keep working on it until it's finished for you hungry mappers. hopefully after a lot of practice il be faster.

 

[Just_Spectating]

i was going for the harmless ones, hence the eerie spiritual energy that surrounds them rather than some blazing fire, which i can do for a different version.

 

[anarchianbedlam]

lol here it is almost done with mesh needs ears tail paws and some minor adjustments :

)

Make it talk in a gruff new yorker accent, and call him frank
.... maybe make an alternate version with a suit and sunglasses

yeah

 

[Kuhneghetz]

uhhh havnt checked the poly count yet

well 530 triangles total

Baron Grunwald is (C) of Olofmoleman.

Count me in. Here's my WIP:

(There's going to be quite more than just this in the final model.)

 

[Just_Spectating]

harp playing critter?

 

[Mulgrim]

you know what, i'm just gona make a dog or puppy that takes me like 3 days to do, because it's a sure thing my whelp won't make it in time, but i'll finish the whelp either way

might even make an adult frostwyrm in some time after I'm done with it.

edit: baby warg (or warg cub) it is. or wargling? hmm..

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

its a warg pup

 

[Deolrin]

Just_Spectating, not exactly.

 

[anarchianbedlam]

:/ i would like to join, but i dont know if ill have enough time... ill see what i can do

 

[Mulgrim]

nvm a worg pup (or warg or whatever) but now i got a sweet idea to make a worg later on, I'm just going to try and finish that whelp

 

[Devine]

almost done... got a lil problem.

 

[skrab]

Here are my wips.
As you can see it's a Mermaid. Nemo style.
326 Faces
I have to finish the texture on the hair, tail, hands and few other parts. Then its ready for animation. Maybe I'll make a new hair mesh.

 

[chilla_killa]

I will enter, too.
Still thinking about what to do.
BTW: I already made a harp and mine is much more low poly

I make this animal:

How is it called in English?
My WIP has 74 polies

 

[Pyritie]

Armadillo!

 

[tee.dubs]

wha oh, mine is really similar to an armadillo... though it probably shouldn't be a problem. i'll just make mine a little different if need be.

EDIT: yeah here's another whip.

 

[D a w n]

decided to create a custom texture for my walru because I did not find suitable ingame ones :/

will show a pic when the head is modeled.

oh and you got some nice models so far guys

the brown magnataur skin didnt work?

 

[chilla_killa]

Here are two WIP's with two different textures on the back. Which is better?
88 polies FTW

 

[D a w n]

KotoBeast for sure

 

[Deolrin]

I remember there was a nice texture for Armadillo scales. Either way, the head seriously needs to be improved(aka have more polies).

 

[chilla_killa]

No it's an ultra low poly critter, it doesn't need moar polies.
Where was this texture?
Anyone ideas for a fitting animation? I thought about Skink, but the walk anim is ridicolous, maybe sheep anims?

 

[D a w n]

maybe skarab??

Edit: made some progress. The mesh is pretty much done, only the tusks are left. The texture still needs some changes ( like the eye, the fur of the stomach area, the color of the neck) and I'll have to rig it

 

[Malcous]

Wow , nice WIP DonDustin =)

 

[skrab]

Small swim wip
Water should be below her breasts.

 

[Mulgrim]

maybe skarab??

wow really good job on the texture



and now with 6 days, i don't know if I'll get it all done in time, so bai, i'll upload my whelp (which will remain a critter) before the end of february. good luck to all contestants!

use rat anims
or even koto beast (riderless) anims

 

[Kuhneghetz]

Or maybe snap dragon?

 

[Just_Spectating]

bear, then remove the attack anims.

 

[Mr.Goblin]

maybe skarab??

you should change the moustache color.. change it for a dark brown, or a grey color.. because white stands out too much, also I never seen a picture of a Wallruse with a white moustache.. D:

the model is really nice so far.. good job mate!

its not a moustache lol

but it should be a bit darker. (the beard im assuming)

i also think the arms should be a lot smaller

 

[HappyCockroach]

I wanna make an otter, I just hope I have enough time.

EDIT: WIP

Head mesh has 128 polies

 

[Mr. Bob]

lol I didn't see this..

Anyway I join. I'll work up somethin' quick.

EDIT: ok is 20 minutes quick enough?

here's my WIP for my new pumpkin monster.

 

[Just_Spectating]

pink panther!

that part is still from the tuskarr, but as it already looked ok it wasn't really on top of my priority list

 

[Amigurumi]

Finally I used the Sheep animations because it was easy and I never used ingame animations before. Thanks to PyramideHe@d who told me how attach Vertices to Bones in Vertex Modfiy.
But the animations are not perfect, but ingame it looks nearly okay.

oohhh, nice :>
haven't tested it ingame, but in magos, all body parts aren't together.
don't know if it's because magos, but you should fix it

+rep

@ DonDustin, lawl, like that one :>
