I love how the frontal snout is given a bone look to it giving it a savage primitive look. Great Art!

Lovely (if that's the right word to describe this creature ), I can almost feel those spines...youch!

Thanks, you wouldn't wanna rub up against him.. I imagine even his skin texture would be like a rough scaly hide/shark skin. Somewhat of a reptilian/marine mammal mix.

Love it! I guess it wouldn't be something you could ride on, though.

MIKECORRIERO In reply to Vivienne-Mercier [2012-04-12 04:02:39 +0000 UTC]

He's more of an aquatic mammal anyway.. in cold climate seas..so I don't think you'd wanna ride him if you could

Really brought the sketch to life Mike!
Was the overall design inspired by any outside source or was this all done by your marvelous mind?

MIKECORRIERO In reply to BrooksLeibee [2012-04-12 04:01:19 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I just used the basic silhouette and rough sketch by Katie.. and rendered the rest without any reference, just using my own knowledge, imagination and previous creature and animal design experience.

BrooksLeibee In reply to MIKECORRIERO [2012-04-12 16:03:23 +0000 UTC]

As expected. ^ ^
I swear its in between you, Neville Page, and Michael Kutsche that are my favorite modern creature designers.
Seriously.

MIKECORRIERO In reply to BrooksLeibee [2012-04-12 21:21:10 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for pinning me up with such great talent. Michael Kutsche is just insane.. his rendering ability is almost higher than the CG models.

BrooksLeibee In reply to MIKECORRIERO [2012-04-12 23:04:37 +0000 UTC]

It is, I'm always baffled by his work.
EVERY SINGLE TIME.
I would say the same for Neville, only he makes the CG models. XD
