Description The updated river cow, as promised yesterday. the top one uses the body that I've drawn yesterday, the bottom one uses the body of the original river cow: [link] but I've changed the hind flippers which I am not sure I like now either...

Actually there are many images you have which should be in color.But it's not just about colored image,you have 3D designs.So as you said it's good to sculpt all your creatures eventually.That would look more cool.

well sculpting is about the only digital thing which I think I can actually do quite decently, so that's why.

KingsOfEvilArt In reply to PeteriDish [2013-01-24 22:54:17 +0000 UTC]

Yep. I prefer the body shape and the face here. [link] the eyes, like I said, shoudln't be looking that much upwards so I'd use these [link] And I have much liking for the coluring pattern of this one. [link]

That woudl be dream river cow xD

splicing ftw!

seriously though, I've tried a few experiments myself, like giving it a short muscular trunk like a breathing tube, but it looked weird, and I decided to give it beaks speciffically because the "original" one in the third link was beked too... would it be of any sense to cover the beaks under muscular lips? Or what if I gave it a somehow turtle-like head instead?

Well, there are only so many ways to make flippers look. Whenever I want to make something look different, I try making it a biological marker of health/reproductive ability with interesting extensions/growths or bright colors, like how the Birds of Paradise take their feathers to such extremes or Pterosaurs had such large flamboyant crests.

I like the lower one with the electrosensitive organs, and the fact they use their hindlegs as a tailfluke! Well done!
