CC06 Ghost & Pumpkin

[Hobitt]

Alright back in action, the idea for the CC so far: in a haunted estate which at some point grew giant pumpkins, yet another brave adventurer was devoured by a unknown creature , legends say that it is a pet of the owner of the estate, but since he died a long time ago he is a ghost now.....something like that.

Mood/ref board



Designs for the creature










At this point i know more or less how the creature gonna look.

[neopatogen]

Love the creature ideas!
Not likely that you'll be showing its anatomy, but I still wonder how the 2nd pair of scapula and clavicles are attached to the ribcage.

[BadWoolf]

Love the pumpkin/primate mix, I think that will turn out really cool!

[Amit Dutta]

I need to see more boxes in these designs...or fail. hah
A box primate pumpkin...yes yes
Carry on!

[Hobitt]

@Neo Thanks! i think ill stick to a more simple design
@BadWoolf ill try to make it cool!
@Amit BOXES!

Alright the creature body design, ill stick to a simple version




Ghost design ill probably do some face designs too since i want to figure out what kind of ghost it will be

[Hozure]

Looking good so far. I'm interested in seeing how worn and torn you're going to make the creature (considering it's living long after it's owner's death) and how that contrasts with the person. Maybe think about the condition of the clothing-- that could draw up some ideas.

[Hobitt]

@Hozure Thanks

Some ghost face designs

[Einver]

I find it delightful that all the sketches are red, haha.

I'm particularly fond of pumpkin-monkey! The ghost is shaping up as well.

[Hobitt]

@Einver Thanks!

Comps, im gonna do color versions , liking 2, 4 and 7







and some giant pumpkin designs

[neopatogen]

Lots of exploration as usual!
I like the 2nd comp as well (I kept a goose face in the dead soul lines until I really tried to see smth more ghost-like, but I still like the goose more lol).

[Hobitt]

@Neo Damn it Neo! i see it now too

Values thumbnails, and abandoned color thumbs ( bad comp) picked the composition  now working on the actual color thumbnails.

[RottenPocket]

Dang, I would've gone for the 5th thumb in the top image but I know you'll rock your decision. I'm particularly a fan of demony faced vapours/soul sucking priests.

[Hobitt]

@Thanks! demony faced vapours/soul sucking priests are great!

Alright color thumbnails , i will most likely go with 8 or 7 because i think it has the best read

[Jeso]

Hey Hobbit! Nice sketches man, I like the color sketch no.8!

[Hobitt]

@Jeso thanks!

Studies.WILL APPLY ( some are a bit sloppy so need to to step it up). More coming up

[Hobitt]

Another one, did the last few quickly on paper, starting to work on the final.

[roguesleipnir]

Great studies there, totally different style from the sketches.
Looking forward to the final render.

[Hobitt]

@roguesleipnir Thanks!
Done.
