S2-speedy - Horror Challenge - Zombie Dog

Hi Guys and Girls.

Havent been in here for a while. Glad to see another challenge is underway. I was looking back a few months ago and nothing ever happened so surprised to see this thread user added image

Anyway, Love the new idea and I was having a think about the horror genre and scary characters and one thing that always made me sh*t my pants, were those Dogs in resident evil 2.

The people were bad too but really slow and didnt scare u as much as you could just pop them in the head but the dogs were much faster and harder to get away from. I plan to re-create the image below hopefully in a dark alley (if I have time for a scene) but from the perspective of the dog lookin at you, as if to say - im coming for you! user added image

never done a realistic animal before so going to try it. I should probably also note, I havent touched a 3d program in about 8 months so glad get using it again.

good luck everyone.

This is the kind of horror monster I like to see! user added image
Those dogs in resident evil terrify me (even more so because I've been attacked by one before in real life).

Onya Speedy!!! bahahah yep...I absolutely s**t myself in that part of the game!!! I dont know what it was about the dogs?? Even (game 2 I think) when they chased you around a fountain or something in the garden. Had the same effect..though when they came through that window....ppwwwwffffttt..uh oh...my very young daughter at the time jumped and looked at me and said "Daddy are you ok...you spilt your beer"...bahahaha
