  • I love Eastern Dragons, their faces are always so iconic yet hard to replicate. I particularly like Japanese-drawn Dragons as their expressions always seem more... serious? I went through Google to get some inspiration and see if I could try to capture one of these in a model, the result is not quite what I had in mind but I am enjoying it so far!

    Hey darkedgetv,
    (or Rebecca if im correct) Your sculptris arts look so amazing to me. I wonder if they are actually 3D printable? (im just askin because we have 3d printers here my university, and under 1year or 2 i should be able to access them, that would be great if i could learn to develop such things like you)

    This is very impressive work and a very good Part One. One can't reasonably ask for more due to the fact you are transferring a 2d image into a 3d model and the stylized nature of the image. However, I would have taken more inspiration from the natural features of real life animals and incorporating it more into the model. For example, I would have taken the whiskers of the dragon in the original image and found a real life counterpart, in this case, most likely a catfish. Catfish have a little buildup at the base of their whiskers to the point where there skin is stretched into the whisker. I say they are whiskers instead of hair or feathers because of the nature of the dragon being Japanese.
    I would stay away from stylized depictions of eyes and try to sculpt them the best you can akin to real life analogs, mostly because I am afraid you'll get into the habit of undermining your own art with realistic scales and teeth but cartoony anatomy of eyes. I would sculpt the base of the eyes with the buildup of eagle eyes, mostly because they have binocular vision, but detail the pupil and iris with that of a crocodile. Never forget to sculpt the eye lids and some dragons have a nictitating membrane.

      Apologies for not replying to this sooner, but thank you very much for the brilliant advice. I'd seen this comment a while ago and tried to use it for my more recent sculptures, especially the eye-tips for my Houndril and Deathwing models. I feel like my eyes have been improved, although a second opinion is more than welcome. Your point on catfish whiskers is something I hope I can remember next time I decide to do whisker-like protrusions.
      Again, thank you for the feedback, and to point out that the clash between realism and stylized depictions can be problematic later on, it is incredible helpful!

    Make a Zerg :D (your original desing based on starcraft)
    Design Process
    According to Samwise Didier, the zerg design process can be summed up as follows:
    1) You start with lots of teeth.
    2) You choose a troop type:
    a) Melee attacker
    b) Ranged attacker
    c) Flying attacker
    d) All of the above (game designers don't like this option, as it's too multi-purposed)
    3) Pick a form:
    a) Decapod
    b) Hexapod
    c) Octopod
    d) Serpentine
    4) Add 2 or more of the following:
    a) Poisonous spines
    b) More teeth
    c) Barbed tails
    d) Jagged claws
    e) Spiked back plates
    f) Insectoid wings
    g) Venemous tendrils
    h) Bat wings
    i) Acidic glands
    j) A lot more teeth
    5) Choose a name prefix:
    a) Rage
    b) Omega
    c) Spore
    d) Ravage
    e) Blade
    f) Destruct
    g) Terror
    h) Any other word that sounds violent and exudes overall nastiness.
    6) Choose a suffix:
    a) -ling
    b) -lisk
    c) -tor
    d) -zor
    e) -etc.
