  • Hersh's last lizard character added to my lizardman army but could do with a frogman (slann) with sharp teeth to lead them , need a skaven army (ratmen) oh and various chaos beasts/humanoids those you can really go wild with 

    Image result for warhammer lizardman

  • I have a question about your characters and if anyone else here can answer this, now obviously clown has to be clothed but what about the monsters/demons and aliens. In a lot of classic scifi and grey aliens and their kind they are always shown unclothed as they are sexless and in some themes the "skin" is actually their clothing like a body stocking so if I or anyone did a render of them like this would we get into trouble? Also your female alien even more so other than her chest bumps there are no nipples or anything so same again there. And again same with your monsters/demons. All of these are shown in Josh Crockett's promos front on unclothed and shows they are basicly sexless not sure how plague wolf would go though but think it also depends what mod is going through galleries at the time as I had two test images of male characters testing other hd morphs on them that were removed because they were wearing only the underwear from Vinnuth Kriegor Battle Mega Armor and topless  again these were male characters. Which also makes me wonder about the male horses/male centaurs what to do there can hide behind leg sometimes but some poses you can't. So anyway while in some scifi/horror/fantasy scenes you may yes add clothing and fit the scene in others a lot of others it just would not look right so opinions are these all ok safe to do minus clothing or what again some gallery mods may look at things differently

    Look here for more wing inspiration...

    so again showing with the v4 creature wings base then with the bat texture from the cc wings texture addons found that if you tried to use a made pose get heavy distortion but if you manually pose each body part works ok though harder with the hands as they operate the wingsalso those arrows don't appear in prerender but do in render

    have you tried using the wings from this figure?

    What I woiuld love to see is a winbg fully integrated into the arm and hand like a bats "fingers" are all actually part of the wing.

    Here is a little better break down into what parts of the arm and hand go where in a bat wing...

  • Antfarm has the far superior "bat" figure in my opinion. And with the awesome finger wings to boot. Just sayin LOL

    Good question about the nudity standards on creatures. Not sure how that works here at Daz. I know other sites make you cover stuff up. I do a lot of "naked creatures". I'm assuming because they aren't human and "sexless" as you say that they are passable. You'd have to ask the Daz staff about specifics though.

  • I will say this about the Dweller. The concept behind the Dweller is a creature that has dwelled in dark places and feeds on vermin and has mutated over the years. Perhaps human at one time... so not necessarily a "bat" per sey, but with characteristics of creatures he may have fed on over the years and just a general overall creepiness and nastiness.

    HOLY CRAP! WHERE DID THAT COME FROM! I wants it! must haves it, my precious! I just wish it was a morphed G3M or G8M figure with Geo Graphs. I would love a "Manbat" figure for my Gotham Series.

    I am out of funds this week cause I just bought Hobgoblin, Orc and Robbus of ya, Josh. No fair! :( ... :)

  • RKane_1RKane_1 Posts: 3,037

    BWAHAHAHAHAH! IT IS A DAZ ORIGINAL! It's on sale and I used my coupon and got it for under $4. 

    *evil wringing of hands and cackling*

    *cough, cough* Sorry... I get.... excited. :)

  • RKane_1RKane_1 Posts: 3,037

    BTW, I run a role-playing game and I use visual aids. Guess what the characters are running into next week? :)

    Josh, I am becoming a big fan, not just because of the various creatures, but also because of the detail in them and how easy they are on resources also, I was working with the Orc HD last night and he was a pleasure to work with. keep up the great work!

    it needs more poses :) 

  • hopefuly this'll appear was looking at my memories on facebook and this video with pictures of some really weird looking sealife came up might give you a few ideas

  • How about the Mugwumps from Naked Lunch?  Those were some freaky dudes. :)

    That's a cool idea actually 

    Thanks, that movie is a total acid trip without any acid required.  One of my faves. :)  The giant homosexual cockroach was quite trippy as well...egads!

    first time seen that

     

  • Another possible idea: a slug / worm / human kind of like Jabba the Hut, but possibly with variable amounts of useless appendages (arms and legs).  Dunno if you've read "God Emperor of Dune" or not...but the human transmorphed into the worm is kind of what I'm thinking about....but maybe with a bit more Jabba...LOL
