Sea Creature

Phase1

Phase2

Phase3

Water has got to be one of the hardest things to draw I feel, but creatures that live in water are pretty fun to draw. Although the whale like eel thing was fairly simple to draw, painting it was a little tougher trying to blend various shades of blue. The waves at the end were drawing using that really famous Japanese painting as reference and are mostly there just so I didn't have to draw the rest of the body.

This being the first "living" thing I've created in 3D max I wasn't exactly sure where to begin, but eventually I managed to shape and reshape a cylinder in to something that resembled my painting and applied a modifier to smooth it out.
