Xeno Wook Series:



This was a SWAG request done for RedDragon Ripper.


This is the first of 3 pieces I've done for RedDragon Ripper, for his Xeno-Wook request.

For this scene, as per RedDragon Ripper's original request, he wanted an Alien aka 'Xenomorph' covered in Wookie Fur; thus an Star Wars / Aliens crossover for his RPG game. I took on the request because it intriqued me, a new spin on the old but favorite starwars crossover xenomorph scenario. I had detailed all the steps of the process in my SWAG blog linked above. It was a challenge, but really fun to tackle and complete. And it also spurned 2 additional images that I felt compelled to make.

In short, I did the fur first, then added 2 sets around the Alien, then just kept adding and adjusting as I saw fit. Including the final lighting version, the R5 astromech droid, the camera angle, and lastly the alien egg, and the eerily fog/mist on the ground that made its very own illuminative lighting properties to the scene that truly put the finishing touches and mood setting for the atmosphere...


Materials & Setup:
Intel Core2Quad Q6600, 2gb ram, Carrara 6.0
Original Resolution: 2048x1536. ~45 minutes render time
Models: Datapad - unknown, DLL-44 by Dodger, Stylus by Ellpro, Beret by HT3D, Level 19 by Stonemason, GFSC by Stonemason, Alien Drone by Antares (Franz Muenz) & converted by Virus, flask - unknown, R5 Astromech by JCHoagland & Mr.Sparky

Notes: No postwork save signature added to final render. Even the ground fog/mist and the glass control buttons are part of the original render process. Also used some custom shaders in lieu of the original textures: the Alien's fur, the coloring pattern for the Alien's fur, the fog/mist, control panel buttons, and metal parts of the R5 Astromech droid.

Thanks! Yeah, the majority of the D.A community doesn't bother to leave comments save for a rare few.
