What about death?

you take the classic death (skelleton in robe) and create a creature that explains all this like: something that uses dead bodies as host for hunting and wears the robe so nobody can see it. Why do people die when death touches you? thats for the creator to figure out

I have 2 ideas i would like to throw in with some thought

Mans New Best Friend - Dogs as good of mans friend as they are may be replaced by something better in the future world

Mans Enemy - I played Resistance 2 and the Chimera are a great creature made intelligent. Mind you im not suggesting them but what about a creature that is like the enemy of man kind?

Evolutionary line of an animal, you have to come up with an animal and its ancestors, showing how and which way it evolved. Evolutionary lines are a basic concept for all animals - and I haven't seen a topic like this yet. Since I am studying to become an evolutionary biologist I thought this would be a good topic. In this topic you really have to think through what you are going to do.

Some classic examples of evolutionary lines:

What about a vinyl eating loop digger, a pig vomit scum sucker, vampiric rabbits or a Long Fang Walrus Rider.

Atrophy. (Not "a trophy".)

**Reinen** · November 30th, 2008, 08:01 PM

farmer- some sort of creature culturing others to further its own survival.

post nuclear food source- creatures as we know them are mutated or extinct, what fuels mankind's survival now?

bio-fortress- a stronghold or tactical strong point that is a creature in of it's self.

angel-beast- anything there really, a beast like angel, an angel like beast, or the angel of a beast...who knows.

frontline bio-weapon- the ultimate army doesn't want to risk expensive machines or fragile soldiers, what can they use?

Shiny cave dweller...

thats all the ideas i have right now

i also think this is an AWESOME idea, like you show us a picture of an egg, and we go from there,
or on a similar train of thought...

a creature that is huge but super-primitive in its evolutionary state

**Elder-Of-The-Earth** · December 7th, 2008, 04:49 PM

Hey everyone.

To me concept art is always about new ideas and creativity. Something that's amazing to work on and also hard to create. For example, creating a new night creature, a new night legend. I mean something fabulous except Vampires and Werewolves. I'm talking about a new race that doesn't come out at night to drink blood or to change because of the moon. People also can describe their own new species, are they changing or what, what's the reason that they come out at night. It seems a great amusing concept, but it's hard. I think these kinds of ideas can take attentions and can be motivating.

**Fenster** · December 19th, 2008, 02:12 PM

An evolved form of deep sea bird.
A hive complete with separate types of the same creature that perform different hive duties.
A creature that appears harmless to lure in prey, then has a vicious surprise.
A large creature that performs the same flower pollination that bees do.
a whale sized insect
a space insectoid/crab that lives on asteroids
A creature that uses the wind to travel on the surface of the water
The ultimate predator.

I'll shoot some ideas they might help.

~ A creature that feeds on other creatures or maybe a specific one ( like a tick sucking on a dog's blood or a leech for example )
~ A hybrid that is created for a specific function ( it would have to have a purpose, how and why it was created, all the basic fundementals and reasons behind the creation)
~ Some monster that has been terrifying some a area ( the monster itself has to have a purpose why he is attacking it, and maybe some of his anatomical a fisionomical apearence has something to do with it)

If something else occurs to me ill be sure to tell ya.

Everyone has such good ideas!

How about an animal that isn't a threat to humans suddenly becoming the size of a horse? I'd hate to see what a monster-sized shrimp would be like.
Or maybe a creature that has the ability to blend in with furniture. What if there was some kind of alien that could look like a lamp? Scary.
