You're being very brief and Twittery tonight. You're not on the peach cider again are you??!!?

[Arbinn]

Good.

Hopefully I have time to participate. I'm moving tomorrow. :/

haha no alcohol for me tonight - just in a funny mood. home alone, no man to torment

[MikeBurns]

No set direction I'm going in just yet, but I'm playing around with the idea of a pet that desperately craves attention so it gets into all kinds of trouble and it torments the other pets out of spite. Here's a quick sketch I just did.

I'm not even sure if I'll have a finished entry for this week cause I'll be moving back to school tomorrow and I might not have the time. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on everyone else as they post. So many awesome ideas show up with these things

[acb]

hmm...what do you mean by lean ? and MJ i think Team Cow will be AWSOME?!

[MikeBurns]

How exactly would a team COW work? i don't really know how team chow works, i've seen the threads but i'm not sure i understand how it works :/

[NickTrip]

acb - lean means without a lot of fat. So a body builder would be lean, but so would an emaciated person.

This should be fun!

[evolvingeye]

Here is my concept so far. Its gonna be a tree-dwelling type creature that feeds on unsuspecting campers.

[PowleyMan]

Im diggin it evolvingeye, certainly mean and lean

Just screwin around with some ideas. Team COW would be intense any ideas on subject matter?

last wip of the night, gettin sleepy...

[Ironhead]

Hi there, after a long time i will give it a try.
Happy drawing!

[Ederic]

Heyo, this is my first try at C.O.W or anything similar.


This is my first sketch for the creature, a dragon-thing that likes to terrorise innocent kite-fliers.

Feedback is accepted.

Nice starter, but it looks a bit too 'ordinary'. Keep up the good work!

[Lege1]

It starts.........

[Dorkthrone]

Throwing my hat in the ring.

I'm going for a praying mantis sort of look.

[Yor]

nice, i'm in! here are some quick sketches.

[evolvingeye]

Great concepts so far! PowleyMan, I'm diggin the perspective you have goin on there. I'll post another wip soon.

[acb]

i like your ocncepts Yor
no 2 looks really interesting and also no 4 but it looks less stable on that pose like its about to fall

im still sketching although i think i have a good idea but i dont wanna jump on the first nice idea im getting will post something soon and will post some more comments too ^_^

[Yor]

@ Acb, thanks man, i think i' m going for n2. here's a wip of n2 and n4 but i won't be using that one

[dwinbotp]

Yor, great sketches & ideas!

My initial idea after reading the brief. comments and suggestions are welcome
It's a dog, made of plant/root, that came from a seedling, grows underneath and rises from the ground after maturity. Not sick enough of an idea but I'm tired. Can't wait to see more from this round

[Coxaman]

So, this is my first time here at COW, and my creature is an alian worm that feeds on blood, so for the firsts years on earth the worms was only killing rats to live, but it was a hard work because the rats was faster than the worm. Now this creatures lives inside Ball Pool biting and drinking blood from little kids in the pool.

[wanwan]

nice work, coxaman but so far all i can see is a shark with a moustache

[Coxaman]

lol, its not finished yet. Ill try to do improve it, but im kinda out of ideas...

[Yor]

Dwinbotp, ncie idea, curious to see how ot will turn out!

ok here's my final i think, if you think that i can change still something please tell me.

[JakkaS]

Yor I like you sketches, but I am afraid the one you have choose looks too humanoid. But maybe I am wrong...
dwinbotp - I like your sketch. It reminds me one of my creatures I have started few years ago but never finished. Check the attachment.
MikeBurns - nice start... I like the greens... and head design.
Lege1 - nice start!

Here are my sketches. I am still not sure which I should choose. Also ...still don't know If I will have time to do this one

[Yor]

JakkaS, those are really nice sketches, nice values and really dynamic! if my entry is too humanoid, i won't post it in the finals thread bien entendu.

[Lege1]

Jakkas: Thanks broski! Means alot coming from you. Your wips are monsterous no doubt, I am beggining to think that you are a creature yourself,lol, don't take that the wrong way but you and Scorge are both monsters of COW. You've both inspired me alot throughout the years.

[dwinbotp]

Jakkas LOL, my man! Those look great!!! Similarities aside though, please allow me to finish what you've started, I have such a one track mind, haha. If it's too close, I'll do another one different Again, great great stuff dude!

[mobius-9]

Hey fellas, this here's my first ever cow, its an honor. Here's a couple things I've been messing around with.
