CGTalk Challenge Concepts
Well! I have to get moving on my Challenge work so I started to sketch some small assasin/attack droids that would wreak havok by disabling enemy installations and ships before concerted assaults. oooo sounds flash. Here is some small sketches and I splashed some colour on one quickly in Photoshop to see what it would look like. Hmmm not bad but I need to further work on my concept.

Looks good so far. Would like to see thoughs updates.

Pony! Yeah I know what you mean about the updates. I am on it now as I had the old pre-competition jitters and could not get a good concept and I have been also stuck doing a website for a mate.
Will be uploading some more solid sketches tonight! :) :) Waiting for your next update with anticipation! |

Damn! Have you ever started a project and it just does not want to come together? I'm really struggling with this one for some reason. I will keep posting updates and I just have to work through the problem.
I am not sure if I like the droids head to be honest. Here is another (clearer) sketch of the guy I did last night. I wanna get onto the modeling but I want to make sure that he is right before I start. |
I think "Ant" when i see him. Is the look you are going after?
Thought of "Atom Ant" on the first one, only modernized if i am making sense. t3 Good feel tho. 8 |
Atom Ant! Ha ha! Yeah I can see that t3logy. I was wanting a little guy that is fast and black.
I like this guy and will develop him a bit more perhaps in another project but I have changed tact once again. I felt that I needed something more sinister and classic. So here is the concept that I think I am going to run with. I sketched this guy really roughly and then bought the sketch into Illustrator. Worked it up and then smoothed it out in Photoshop. The character feels stronger so now I will spec him up in profile for a tracing template so I can model him in maya. Will keep you posted. Feedback is most welcome. http://www.winteractiv.com/opera/deathdroid2_5.jpg |
and here I was rooting for the "odds against aspect/humor in the sitation" of the challenge. Didn't mean to slay my "hero" with the ant comment.
The lethal pauma oozing malignant intent is awesome too. t3logy |
Hey t3logy
Thanks for your feedback and you are not responsible for atom ant's demise. Heh heh! That is a good name for the little fella. I will be hopefully uploading the image plane reference tonight - Yeah I know it is just another pict but I have to get it right before I start modeling. |
Looking cool, surfer. :)

Hey thanks Mike!
Well here is the possible image plane reference. Here pussy pussy! heh heh! I have not decided if I like the "bat" ears or not. Any comments would be welcome. Now I have to work out how to make this sucker... Back to the T-rex Dvd by Kurt. If you don't have it, get it!!! (SPAM) haha! http://www.winteractiv.com/opera/deathdroid3.gif |
one question
How is this going fit in with the Grand Space Opera theme?
good luck you got quite a bit of work to do there |
Ahhh Grasshopper
All will be revealed... My philosophy is that everyone has seen the big spaceship and the grand space scene before so I am going to take a risk to try and be a little different. If it fails miserably, I still have a cool cat droidy thingy heh heh! You are right tho! Lots of work! |
ok, here is the latest progress with the head basically modeled. I am still working on it improving detail and proportions but I thought I would post this for some feedback. Cool!

Some really nice concepts, good start on your model aswell.
Keep at it :) |
Thanks Rubber Chicken
I'm working on the head a bit more. I'm thinking that it is almost there unless anyone has some suggestions... I will be working on the ear next. I have also included a shot of the wire if anyone is interested. excuse the seam in the middle. I'm to tired to merge the sucker. http://www.winteractiv.com/opera/testhead2.jpg |
