    well, a japanese scientist just made some photos of an Architeutis (Giant Squid) in the deep sea...it were the first shoots of a living Architeutis ever...

    So i think this sensational happening deserves a topic for our activity...we should all be in the mood to create something huge, beautiful, mystical, amazing which lives thousands of miles down in the abyss and we aren't aware...

    Something's down there...I KNOW!!!

    Monstrous Sea Terror - The water world of Cygnus III seemed like the perfect place. Lush beaches, warm waters and perfect weather. It was only after small boats and submarines started disappearing that the colonists to this new world realized something was very wrong with their paradise. Lurking deep beneath the oceans, the Monstrous Sea Terrors roam the oceans as undisputed kings. These cunning predators feed on anything that they find, including the colonists who mistakenly venture into their domain.

    Good entries. Yeah... I don't know what I'm gonna do yet. Tons of ideas and none of them are convincing me.
    The topic is exhilarating and I can't think strait : S

    Hurricane, I really like the effect of the submarines lights on the creatures underside. Looks great!

    Thalassiosaur - forgotten through the aeons, this creature has remained undiscovered by man in the darkest depths of the sea. Being the largest species in the water, the thalassiosaur has nothing to fear from other predators, but its equally large feeding requirements have limited its numbers to only a few.

    Edit: Sharpened up the pic - thanks Hanuka!

    DEEP THROAT

    Deep Throat is a mammal and often classified as whale. It's intentions however are much more vicious than your average whale's. He means ill. By all means. He will kill you. And your mother. Just out of spite, because he can and because he has those cool yet sloppily rendered teeth. Look at his eyes. He will get you and he will rob all your worldly possessions. He is just planning the PERFECT CRIME! Back in the day, when Mr. T and G.I. Joe were still around, Deep Throat and his gang often went to the Korova Milk Bar and had a milk-plus; milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what they were drinking. This would sharpen you up and get you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.

    edit: this is not completely done yet, but i'm posting it anyway... just in case i don't find the time to touch it up till deadline.

    Wow, some really top stuff already! Huge deep sea creatures just aren't my thing (as opposed to shiteaters??) so I don't think I'll be submitting anything this week. I can tell the voting decision is going to be hard this round. Nice work all

    hurricane, your creature is just fantastic! Really eye catching. I love that lighting.

    you bring the extreme into the word rendeEXTREMEring... the detail is awesome, i like the color palette, that eye is nasty and you really know how to focus.

    hurri

    rock-solid hurricanism. nice touch with that submarine's light

    possessed

    unique stuff - clever texture-work.

    Nefarious

    if you sharpened it up a little, making it a little less blurry, this would be top-notch realism. i love how the flipper is rendered.

    Giant LobsterSquid Years of toxic waste have been slowly seeping into the giant squid's spawning area and eventually they start to mutate. Now the DNA from the giant squids has mixed with the DNA from a deep sea spiked lobster.
