Confection #6- Evolution`s Misfits. ~open to all~

[Chuck,mate.]

Hello boys and girls, once again.

This here challenge is a nice and fun designing exercise I had the pleasure of running for quite a while now at another CG forum.

The rules are simple enough, and the possibilities are Endless (well, no. not really, but the possibilities are quite vast...)

in a nutshell -
We give you 2 animals - you combine them into 1. you got about a week.
sounds easy, right? well, yeah. if you go the tomato route.
but keeping it unique and somewhat fresh is harder than one might think.

anyone who feel like giving it a go - is more than welcomed.
come the deadline - a public poll will determine our winner.


confection #6 :


deadline : July 28, Monday.

that`s it basically.

good luck ppl,
cheers.

[Chuck,mate.]

couldn`t resist. here`s a quick idea (for now)

[Chuck,mate.]

wow. really? no takings?

okey..

[ibbo]

Just in case people wern't sure, thats a Macaque (Macaque wiki). Having seen your entry Chuck, Mate i'm now wracking my brains as to come up with something origional (i was going down the armored monkey route too!). Thats a fantastic sketch though, cant wait too see it finished.

I'm in, I'm in. just won't be for a few more days. Like ibbo, I too had the same idea when I first saw the topic. I'll do my best to be as original as possible.

see you in a few...

[Chuck,mate.]

deadline is 3 days away, and no participants.

[Hybrid_75]

OK, I don't think I have the time to polish it, but Chuck,mate. sounded so sad due to the lack of participation so here's my Macadillo couple.

my color wip:

[ibbo]

Hoorah for magically extended deadlines, hopefully i'll post some of my sketches tomorrow! Some intresting work so far guys, keep it up!

the tough thing about this is not doing the obvious, i guess just go crazy then you can dial it back if it is rediculous.

exactly. well put.

Chuck, I really like your Macadillo. I can imagine a bunch of these in different shapes and sizes perched on tree branches, staring at us.
Hybrid, your design's looking crazy =) I'm not sure what's going on with the hind legs, but I think they look a tad too short.

Here's my start.

[Hybrid_75]

Chate Noire: it's so cute! i wanna cuddle it..... i wonder what macaadillo would taste like?

Funny that you mention the short legs cause i kinda did it on purpose, still playing with ideas. was thinking along the lines of long arms that he would walk with the stocky looking claws of the armadillo as the feet. and then short little hindlegs/arms. why you ask..... cause i can

[Jockemon]

I decided to draw my macadillo in Flash CS3 and ended up with this big mess hahhaha VOTE 5 XD

[Chuck,mate.]

Jockemon - this is actually really good. I like it. the design is real nice and the expression is hilarious. well done.

chate noire - yours is absolutely fantastic. I just LOVE the feet and the pose... awesome.


P.

[S.C. Watson]

... almost done ... I swear! I'll have some time tomorrow to try and finish it off - otherwise I'll end up posting an incomplete

[Chate Noire]

My final.

[Chuck,mate.]

Oregano - no sweat. sketches, WIPs, etc` are alright as well.

chatenoire - brilliant. just that. you kept the initial flow and energy of the sketch, and rendered it beautifuly. really great color scheme.

one extra day for you guys,
deadline is now 28/7/08, Monday.

[Gib]

Thats awesome Chate Noire. More a person than a creature but who says Macadillos are not intelligent, maybe a bit lazy but clever.

Thanks to magically extended deadlines I found some time to push my version too.

[artiphats]

Chate Noir... great one! O_o

almost done with mine, up tonight or tomorrow
