My Absylonia Conversion

[Asmoridin]

Admittedly, I'm not a great photographer, but it should be clear enough what's going on. Basically, I wanted to do a better job depicting flight (I think her wing arms are just 'ok'), and I wanted to give her a way to have reach. Solution? Wings and Tentacles, which are especially fitting after Proteus came out.

From behind:


I'm still not sure how exactly she'll be painted, but I'm thinking some sort of grayscale.

I'd love to hear any thoughts or suggestions

Thanks!

well the wing on her back looks ok but it is hard to tell from the size of the pics. Personally i think the tentacles are a bit too thick... just take s file/knife and thin them down, possibly add some additional detailing to them, like either suckers on the underside or a spike from the tip (like the ones on the throne). Also the 2nd level of the stone on her base seem just... odd... it blocks sight to what should be a major view point (where the tentacles are coming out of)

Hmm, okay- I can work on making them smaller. I wasn't sure what to do for texturing them, however. I could try to sculpt suckers, I suppose . Could be a fun challenge.

The second level of stone is there to basically cover up the fact that the lower half of her dress-thing is pretty much unused. The tentacles all come out from the top portion of the dress (where they would attach to her leg/torso, but there wasn't anything to do with the lower half but hide it some. Also, they provide something for one of the tentacles to actually do!

(Thanks for the advice, btw!)
