Creature Art - 3D work and Illustration

Here's a piece of creature art I drew recently.

A Harvestman

The Harvestman is a creature drawn for an upcoming book “Deviant Database 2.0” by Tim Snider. Here’s some highlights from the author’s original description of the creature used to complete the piece:

“A Harvestman is a twisted, deformed humanoid with exceedingly long arms and legs. The Harvestman's head and joints bend in impossible directions, and the creature scuttles around on all fours…

…A Harvestman attacks with its long (10' long) barbed tongue, which lashes out to cut and maim a victim…

..it ties together scraps of vines, ropes, and cables into web-like structures that criss-cross through its lair. It will use these "webs" to travel quickly through the area..”

The published version will be in black and white/grayscale; the color version posted here is a 150 dpi version of my working copy. I did initial model work on the creature in Poser. The tongue and wall elements were drawn in Adobe Illustrator and the pieces were put together and rendered in Carrara before going back to Adobe Illustrator for editing and a tiny bit of Photoshop work followed.
