My fellow Egyptonuts.... I give you the second part of Serpent Goddess. Except... less girly.... and now, with scorpions

Behold the horror!

http://www.daz3d.com/scorpion-god/

And much like Serpent Goddess, this one has an add-on too (which works with Serpent Goddess, to create a seamless render)

http://www.daz3d.com/guardians-of-the-dead-for-scorpion-god/

Disclaimer: No Locusts were actually harmed during the making of this product

Got questions, I got answers! Feel free to shoot, but not me... coz like, I wont be able to make any more cool stuff.
Got renders? Feel free to post em!
Got coffee, please bring some... lol

Coz Ive already been asked.... sadly, no the mummy does not come with the set. Its made up of Smay's Zombie and my own custom morph (which sadly, I cannot distribute, as it has DAZ morphs entwined within it)

    I'm probably the only one here who actually saw the He-Man movie. Skeletor stole the show. ;)

    Nice face-off with Anunnkai in that third promo. :)

    In Chinese mythology, there are 5 poisonous creatures: the snake, scorpion, centipede, toad and spider. I've been working on a card game based on Feng Shui mythology for a while, with a need for a "scorpion king." Ta da! And a "serpent queen" too! (Though I've had plenty of options in that area).

    Spider-themed items are also relatively easy to find, but I don't suppose you could be inspired to do anything with a toad or centipede? ;) (I might be able to do something with Ranaka for the toad part, but I confess to being somewhat puzzled as to how to make an interesting centipede character.)

    Hmmm... 100 legs, totally rigged. Soooo not it! LOL One of the reasons I wont touch Medusa either lol Ive been dying to tackle her for ages.... but to do it, the snakes would ALL have to be rigged, shed have to be naga-like and shed have to be truly hideous lol Rigging all the snakes would be an utter nightmare.

    But the card game sounds really cool, actually. I have a penchant for venomous and dangerous critters.

    Well... you didn't rig all the bits of the scorpion decorations! I just meant something inspired by a centipede, not an actual rigged centipede. :)

    Ahhh I see.... you mean, clothing with centipedes. That actually isnt that far fetched.... but the toad.. that would be trickier.

    Philosopher's Egg has a frog-headed M4. Since you don't seem to have transitioned over to Genesis, he might work for you. Might need to do a new texture if you're using the Ranaka legs.

    Speaking of Genesis. Has anyone tried putting this new outfit on it? Except for the sandals it looks like it might not give that much trouble.

    As far as Genesis goes I'm not sure how Well it will convert. Most of it should go fine but the only worrisome part is the loincloth since that's rigged w easy pose. I'm out right now so I'm actually posting this on my phone but when I get back I will see if I can run it through auto fit real quick and tell you all the results

  • IgnisSerpentusIgnisSerpentus Posts: 2,500

    K I gave it a shot in DS on Genesis. Most of the stuff works nicely, but the loin - no go. It would require being rigged to either cancel out the thighs, but more appropriately, also rig it to be like it is in this set (a many segmented chain)

    Also, the skant has some issues where the weight maps would have to be edited for the thighs (although, if it were me, Id prefer it not be attached to the thighs at all, and be rigged with morphs for movement, as its more natural) Most notably, coz of the way the skant is made (where it has a split in the front) its making a particularly yucktastic crunch there, coz the thighs need adjusted.

    I was gonna do a render to show you guys the results, but somehow my scene completely disappeared O.o lol I just installed the latest release of DS today, so maybe its some weird random bug. But yah, sadly, this one isn't gonna convert that nicely.

    Hm. Interesting thought. I use a mix of different generation figures-- generally I try to use anime morphs (e.g. Hiro/Aiko) to get a similar style with all the figures.

    Scorpion God is going to have to wait until I get a payment I'm expecting, then I can get him and post a sample card image. :)

    I actually have two different versions of this card game in the works-- one that's kind of contemporary "mahou shojou" (magical girl), the other in a steampunk/victorian theme. The mechanics work the same either way, so the "foe" cards (of which Scorpion King is one) could be used with either set. (Absinthe is already featured on another card, and I'm seriously considering Frostbite for a third. ;) ) No Olympian set planned yet... but I know where to go if I need costumes for that one! ;)

    I got into DAZ Studio because I lack the skill to create my own illustrations for these games, had several artists fail to deliver on contracts, and was dissatisfied with the quality and consistency I could get from existing stock art sources, even with heavy modification. Between the surge of creative products like this, the availability of toon shaders like those by BishounenTaurus, and my own experiments with custom cameras and rendering, I feel like I'm finally getting to the point where I'll be able to finish these projects and make them available.

    So, a big thanks to IgnisSerpentus for providing so many elements that may help get this project moving again!

    (Hm... I do have a Flame Spirit foe that could conceivably be illustrated with the Phoenix....)
