creature i've been playing through a new game of spore with. obviously still early creature stage, i just wanted to share. the critter :)
i'm using the way limb flesh connects to the body as a sort of imitation of a patagium, which obviously is weird sometimes when walking but it looks way better than i expected
Got around to drawing my Spore creature that I’ve had since I was a kid, recreating it in my latest run!
Their patagium lets the glide short distances (usually between trees), and their large tail fin helps steer them in the air. The fin on their prehensile tail also has stronger membrane with grasping capabilities, acting as a hand.
Upon becoming a space-faring species, they rely heavily on alliances with other nations, usually in the form of spice collection jobs. They also specialize in purple spice in the trade.
I SPENT ALMOST 2 WEEKS ON IT BUT IT'S FINALLY DONE!
A handmade figure of my Spore creature!
THE CREATURE IS REAL!!!
Yeah I made an alpferd out of clay, why not? It was made partially because I wanted to have a 3D reference that looked closer to my way of drawing them, and partially because I just wanted to have an alpferd figure. I don't have a way to 3D print them directly from the game so I had to take matters into my own hands (literally).
Also my brother did the photoshoot so shout-outs to him!
Will I come back to drawing now? I'm not sure. I don't want to make promises. But I have a need for it now so I think some new stuff is coming soon. (No promises, because I promised something last time and disappeared for two weeks immediately after...)
Wow, I haven't posted about these guys in a while, Have I?
Anyways here's an Mspaint Xolian, I'm toying around w/ their design a bit to make them read less as generic anthro dragon aliens and more as their own seperate thing. They look a bit similar to a lot of other species i've seen but I honestly think that's because I just haven't really drawn out their body yet.
It fucks me up that these guys are my first ever spore species... They're practically unrecognizable compared to when I first made them.
