But only if you squint, really, really hard.

I think that Lord of Worms  had a good savannah tileset....

I never saw that one, only the unfinished CTP savannah. Winterhawk was (is?) working on the CTP one.

@ Zwerkules: I didn't know about that "unfinished CTP savannah".

However this is the "Lord of worms" savannah. Actually the tileset is quite basic and don't have anything else than what you see in the picture.

WTB tileset expansions for the Drow Interior. Anything, even just a large doorway feature so it's possible to have even a half-way imposing entrance. >.<

  I am working on a sort of tribal mask, with inspiration pulled from multiple sources. One of which I can't remember the name of unfortunately, but I remain fond of it nonetheless. I am not yet certain how I am going to implement it, either a VFX or a helmet. If I go for helmet, I have to make some obvious changes.


 


  I may do another mask design (less raaoound) if I feel so inclined. Of course, no promises though. I have yet to finish this one first of all, and I am not entirely sure what obstacles I will hit when making this one. That will influence me whether I want to make a second one or not.

Werecrocodile.jpg


 


My werecrocodile uses 1 skin, some non skinned geometries and a custom dynamic tail.


This is not the typical lycanthrope creature, first of all it does not uses lycanthrope animations, it uses the OC, ancient lizard-men, animations. I have chosen them because of their jaw animations, and because of that my werecrocodile can use weapons and shields. I have made this in part , just in case some one wishes to use my werecrocodile as a 2nd Ed version of the minion of Seth, Al-qadim Segarran, or any other crocodile humanoid

It's mainly built from a free Model of "killer croc" at tf3dm.com, from "DC Universe Online"....

I don't suppose you would release and link me that early so I could do a Khumat based on the model/texture?

               Going to try and get a zebra in for this month. May do both creature and mount if I have time.

As I had done before with my "black lagoon creature" in a previous challenge, I have combined my werecroc model with the animations from "Flying NPCs, Succubus, Erinyes, Vampires, and Kobolds" MOD by StoneMonkey, in order to have a swimming version of the creature; And once again the results are far to be perfect, however I think that this is better than nothing....

@ MerricksDad: Don't you think that it could work for the Khumat as it is Now? No matter, anyway, I'll send you a message with a link for that....

Sure it could, but I'd prefer my own Khumat to be larger in the torso-head and more muscular. After after all it is a shadow creature and likely mutated by dark energies to be something more than naturally shaped. I would expect something more monstrous, misshapen, or otherwise not right in its anatomy.

Edit: This is the crazy stuff I am talking to my friends and family about -- I go to look up some textures for variation between alligator and crocs and I end up reading for 2 hours about the Therapsida and Synapsids. I love dinosaurs and ancient mammals.

After examining Shemsu-Heru's model, I do feel very interested in doing a Khumat shadow creature. In addition, I would like to find a good gorilla animation set so I can make a realistic NWN gorilla and then modify it for various other forms, including 4-armed. Does anybody know of one that is already done, or could be made to fit the NWN animation scheme?


 


NM, I already rigged this one. With a few tweaks, it should do nicely. Now, to animate an actual gorilla!

Thinking about using the ghoul/ghast animation from baldur's gate. That way we can use it for a multipurpose animation series and give those undead more options.

Those werecrocodiles are great, Shemsu! Could we maybe get a variant without clothing?


 


And that gorilla model looks fantastic Merricksdad!


 


I feel like I should do something, since it was my suggestion, but I can't make models. Anyone know how to make soundsets? I might try tinkering with that. I've been wanting a proper hyena soundset for Mecheon's awesome hyena model from the Animal challenge.

Zebra is done. I got one model to work for both normal animal and a mount. Working on Giraffe now.
