RE: Remorhaz WIP

[Legacy_Pstemarie]

               

This is a WIP that I started today for Project Q. Is a remake of the CCP Remorhaz - higher poly, new texture, improved animations.

 

 

Head details - new skinmesh fins.

Some texture work laid in...

               Very nice. Can't wait to see final.

Looking nice so far

 

Gotta ask, will you modify the legs so they're more insectoid and not reptilian? The artwork I can find has them as huge ol' centipede likes

I have artwork that shows two types - spider-like and then what is attached now.  For now its got the original legs, but I plan on adding spider-like legs in a future update to the model.

Haven't seen any of the reptilian types! Huh.

 

Looking good so far all the same

These were my primary sources:

• Old School Remorhaz 


• WotC D&D Minis - Remorhaz


• Insectoid Remorhaz

Plus a few other images off Google search. All three images clearly show large frontal scales; hence, the reptillian nature.

Those all look insectoid/arthropoid to me.

Yeah, even as far back as the 1st edition monster manual they've been described as "ice worms".

Only worms I ever saw never had legs

Lots of worm-like invertebrates are commonly referred to as "worms" even though they are biologically unrelated, such as velvet worms, maggots, caterpillars, and various beetle grubs, all of which have legs. The fact is that every D&D monster book published since 1st edition describes the remorhaz as an insectoid creature. You're mistaking the arthropod body segments for reptilian scales.

 

However, your model would make an excellent behir.
