Really like this concept. Feels like these creatures are at different stages of development and are growing. The black goo/covering over the yolk feels like a necessary aspect of their growth like they're incubating within it. It could be cool to have the first 3d sketch have hands for feet to suggest a connection between them.

I noticed that, along the lines of the "unwanted intimacy" theme that you'd mentioned with the other creautres' symbolism, the standing neonate's shape oddly reminds me of a "flasher". The black part feels like a hooded cloak and the hidden arms seem to be braced to pull it open and expose itself. idk if that was intentional, but it's posture does give a very intimidating and almost pending threat feeling~ which definitely works, as the neonates are literally a pending threat. I love how this is all turning out! I'm having a blast watching the process!
@MortiePL2 жыл бұрын
It just occurred to me that you can make the goop of Neonates behave exactly like the ferrofluid behaves when there is strong magnetic field near it. Maybe it could be tied to the story, like for example John's presence could "activate" the entities.

I really like these concepts, and the whole series in general! This neonates gave me a Death Stranding vibe. I think it would be cool if the one that´s doing the "V" pose had more infantile hands? Idk, they feel like adult hands to me, they are fully developed. But anyway, loving your work!
@lezilyyy17502 жыл бұрын
Interesting thing you could maybe add to the yolk: a fertilized germinal disc/blastoderm. Since these guys are Neonates, I figure it could be fitting. It’s a white-ish spot on egg yolk in the shape of a bullseye. Some are really prominent and sharp while others are more on the soft side, but maybe you could add a touch of infinity to tie it in. Maybe it could be a central point to where some of the black goop is stemming from? And maybe it changes depending on which stage the Neonate is on? Regardless, awesome work! I struggle trying to make a lot in one day and I’m amazed at how you’re able to crank all that work out! Keep doing what you do!

May I suggest applying the "Touch of Infinite" to (maybe) every "infinite" material later on in Unreal Engine in order to make it procedural and animated. You can use a displacement map on a shader which slides on "fractal wave noise" texture.

As per usual....excellent content. The only thing I wanted to bring up was the head shape. I think the reason that the head was more pointed in the concept art is because it's a neonatal....softer....more malleable bone and tissue that can be squished into a more cone like shape during birthing.

What if you were to use the Neonate pods/flying ones as the sort of “worker bee” of the manifestations. Maybe you could have a “nest” scene where they could be seen flying around taking care of the pods/eggs and they might attack if John were to attack the pods/eggs! They wouldn’t be a threat on there own but around the nests/breeding grounds you would want to be very careful since there’d be a swarm of them!

Love it!! The only thing I can think of is that, to me at least, the "yolks" don't look like an actual egg yolk. I think that's because of how textured the surface is. I think to get more of the creepy egg look maybe the outsides could be a more matt texture and then the insides and yolk are shiny - so the outside is the "shell" and it's been cracked open to show it's shiny little innards.

1- You should turn on bool tools, you can create a cube and subtract to your mesh to “cut” it. 2- the first dude with the arm you can call him Beggar as we use his arm to beg for parental attention. He can use his hand to cover the face when he does something “wrong” (or good, depending the perspective) or to cover his shyness. I some what see him with some dead body on the floor and we just swinging he’s head with the “face” covered by his arm in a shy and proud way like waiting to be pet for the “good” thing (his view) he did. 3- that dude should be interesting if you multiply his head and create an translucid , shiny membrane, like in the eggs, in an more rounded shape. 4- I thought the dude would had just one harm that appears from the middle of his body, one oversized harm with oversized hand that could cover his entire face.

The floating one could be like a silent, slow thing that comes when everything has been quiet for a while, from above, so you’re not expecting it, and maybe it just comes close to you and explodes, doing a little damage. That would be pretty startling and annoying. And maybe it could emit some sort of faint noise when it’s around or when it has spotted you, just so it’s not impossible to kill them before they explode on you. I keep thinking of the sound of ghasts from Minecraft lol

Such a cool concept!! I especially liked the crawling one. Immediate thought - what if when not moving this guy “closed” his arms/legs and stood up still to protect the yolk (maybe he mimicks some sort of a plant? dk) And when the player comes closer to inspect he’d suddenly open up his arms and sprint away from John. That probably would’ve scared the shit out of me if I played the game for the first time lmao

In the beginning you could've used box trim with symmetry on to evenly remove the arms on both sides. But it only works when the origin point of the mesh is exactly in the middle.

Suggestion for the touch of infinity in all of your enemies: for the wittnesses, put a galaxy at the center of their eyes, or even just a small star; Daddy Long Arm is perfect the way they are; and for the neonates I think a 3d fractal in the center of their yolk with a transparent wall would look really cool

Im only half way through the video, but I’m big on biology so questions have been nagging me. How do they perceive the environment & the player? Wouldn’t there be a ribcage around the yolk if thats their most sensitive & precious “organ”? It could still be more a critical & fragile area to attack than the body, but the yolk being completely exposed is a very bad evolutionary design. Also, it would be creepier in a monster-like way to change the number & size of toes on the first one (maybe like an Ostrich foot). Though its creepy in an uncanny way to give it human feet.
