Latest Monster From my fps:

Made completely in Anim8or

I like it

He doesn't look very.... versatile? Arms growing out the side of his head? Two knees on each leg? Not sold, tbh... its a little too bizarre, and not very scary, really.

I don't see anything wrong with the design *i disagree with GfK* but the textures of the face/body (purple part) needs to be re-done IMO.

I think the purple spoils it. I semi agree with gfk, it looks very bizare, but not scary. It is modelled and textured well though.

it has something....

I think it has humour: a monster desperately trying to look evil, but he is laughable because he cannot control his gun-arms which are mounted too high.

Nice Work. The legs need a bigger angle, unless you want a kind of X-Legs look. And yes, the purple isn't scary and ulgy enough. I'd rather like to see Skin, Muscles, Fur etc.

You may get some inspirations from unreal engine 3 monsters:

Looks like a final fantasy 7 enemy!

The only glaringly faux-pas, move the arms down to meet his shoulders!

Double knee? No I think it looks like an animals hind legs, nothing wrong with that.

You model 1000 better than me so ignore the above ;)

Thanks,
yeah, the purple should have a skinlike texture to it, but i was trying to achieve something more like a matted plasticy flesh.
Having it arms there are part of its wierdness: its not really meant to be scary on its own: more mysterious: it should be scary though when it comes charging around the corner at you with dual wielded shotguns. Its more of a Beast of Power than Versatility. Saying that, i came up with the design when i was ten, so some revision wouldnt hurt....

The quality of the model and the texture is really really good, but, as you said, changing the design might be a good idea...

I agree with Gfk on the arms-from-head thing, but double-knee legs like that are pretty standard for images of fantasy humanoid creatures. Good texturing on the metal parts.

you could have the arms mounted on the back thingie? That'd look maybe more realistic and balanced.

I like it. The purple could work if you make it more like the color of a black eye, darker and more blood veins.
I like the arms coming from the head also, think about it.
If he looks at ya he's already in position to grab ya.
However I think it is the transition from the head to the arms should be changed to mussles so it looks natural.
At leggs I think, you could improve it a little by making his buttox look a litle more like a tyronisorous rex, and less human like. I just meen theye need to be a little fatter (is that a word?), from the side veiw.
Keap that basic design, its truly one of a kind!

Nice Ideas RiverRatt, ill definately be taking some of them onboard before i animate: mainly the spine and leg structures curving over and the Dark skin
