The Giger Project

Alright! I don't feel like a complete idiot anymore! I got my pics to post! (Too complicated to explain here. PM me if you're having problems too.) Image 1: Me sculpting a roach out of chicken-wire covered with masking tape. All the detail is actually just masking tape rolled up or bunched up into body detail. Then I covered that with more masking tape. And finished it off with multiple layers of resin. I use the masking tape as the "poor man's" fiberglass. This is one of 3 roaches that help make up this piece. Image 2: Front view of roach. Image 3: The first roach is positioned behind a lower human mandible. The mandible and teeth are made with the same procedure as the roach. Image 4: The piece is one of my 13 "aural sculptures". They are sculptures that "sing" to you as you approach them. This piece (still missing the 2nd and 3rd roaches) is entitled: "Do the Roaches Really Want Nuclear War?" The first roach is the bartender, the molars are the bar stools, and the other 2 roaches (not yet pictured) are the patrons enjoying a toast. When you walk up to the sculpture, you trigger an .mp3 player that plays the tune I wrote (same name as the piece). The second roach is sculpted and skinned but not detailed yet. A 6 ft. ladder can be seen to the right for scale.

@ DB - nope, right click the image and get its URL that way and edit your posts

Thanks Snork. Heading to the desktop... stupid ipad.

Oh well, No luck on the pics. @Snorkelbottom: So those images you loaded absolutely rock! Did you create them for a game or something?

Db can you go back and edit your posts and just paste the link as plain text? Hopefully we could then copy it into our address bar and maybe see your pics until a staff member gets around to fixing them.

DB & Bio, I just checked the posts that Db put up and they're empty. I have found this to be a glitch that happens after editing your post and then updating. I will discuss this with Bughunter. Rick

@ Db, yeah they are for the PC version of Unreal Tournament 3, they can be downloaded from my filebucket account

love your work snorkelbottom some serious talent here as i thought some really creative people on this site take note hollywood lol

Biomechanic, those images are truly gorgeous and erotic especially the pointy tongued woman. The amber, shady creature ,the fifth, sixth, eighth and tenth pics are superb. Snorkel, your work reminds me a lot of Chris Foss, very impressive! Here's my stuff: [IMG]http://i751.photobucket.com/albums/xx151/Yipfat/Facehuggerpaintedwall7.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i751.photobucket.com/albums/xx151/Yipfat/GigerAlienSphinxheadface2.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i751.photobucket.com/albums/xx151/Yipfat/EpoxyAlien.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i751.photobucket.com/albums/xx151/Yipfat/SpaceJockeypaintedupper.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i751.photobucket.com/albums/xx151/Yipfat/SpaceJockeyfirstcast2.jpg[/IMG]

My old profile pic, we meet again

here you go Starbeast. rather than post link to many pics, here is one link to all my works, you need to click here >[url=http://www.bluecanvas.com/gomodernart]my artworks[/url] and you can look thru the gallery that is labled "FUTURA" , and another gallery that is labeled "DOODLES" sorry, there are no direct links to individual galleries available on the Blue Canvas site that has my art you can click on the image page, and see each piece in HI REZ i must say, after seeing all the GREAT Giger-esque artwork on here, mine looks a lot more Ron Cobb inspired, and my work is traditional, rather than the great 3D digital renders, and Photoshop images that most of you fine folks have posted on here my artistic insecurity is on HIGH ALERT right now, but i thought i'd share, since you all seem to have the moxie

checked your work out shardy splendid stuff really liked it just more confirmation of great talent here.

Really nice work everyone! Snork you truly are a Renaissance Man... Dude; great artist, great writer... What else you got up you sleeve?

LOL, thanks DB, I write, I can create retail quality multiplayer maps with relative ease, naturally gifted artist (drawing not painting), scupltures (though not done any in a long, long time), oh yeah and a street fighter king and a gears of war veteran.

@alteresstate, glad you dig it!, i dig your ALIEN works too! =0) @ZetaReticuli: wow! really great work! @Snorkelbottom: really cool work!
