Yes 
Editor shots are the new things. From now on editor shots only. Bwhahaha. 
Yep 
I Jizzed A Little 
 
Oh Yes 
 
Fullbright Pixels, Begone! 
OMG !! 
Really impressive set of well done shots ! 
 
It has a certain Kinn flavour with the greens and copper colours. 
Actually 
I meant to say Kona not Kinn... 
Color & Brightness Correction + Light Dithering 
This is how vanilla Quake renders dwmtf.bsp:

And now this is how Retroquad renders it:

There's no colored lighting and no texture filtering on this screenshot. 
Vore... HD... Remake WIP! 
So yea... I could not resist starting on this one just as I finished up the Shambler. Might as well keep the momentum going right?

Vore Wip Screenshot!

This is the final mesh and unwrap with a temp rebake of the old texture with some quick cleanups that included fragments of the face from the GIB head texture. Same workflow that I employed on the Shambler. So get the shape done first and then work ontop of original texture as a starting point though ultimately that gets replaced almost entirely.

So like before I will most likely setup my animation rig with proper animations before working on the final texture.

I'll keep you all posted! 
 
It looks like a great model but (I probably won't be the first to say this) - the addition of ladybumps and a slim waist may not be to everyone's taste :} 
Was A Lumpy Thing :P 
In the case of the vore... It really was so badly constructed with zero lack of any sort of anatomy. We'll see how it looks like with a more final texture. For the torso I will be going for a more gaunt emaciated ribcage / waist.

Ha it wont be sexy when done I hope. That or folks are in to some freaky stuff on this forum.... 
 
Interesting stuff there Mankrip... is there a major performance hit with this? 
Voorrre! 
Whew, the vore getting a Skiffy job? Fantastic.

I remember first hearing the idle sounds of the vore and it chilled me to the bone. 
 
That's great Skiffy!

I always thought the Vore was female anyway. Looks great so far, can't wait to see how this progresses!! 
Fifth 
The only significant performance hit comes from the dithering, mostly because the lightmap uses a separated surface cache now, which is combined with the texture in realtime.

The color & brightness correction has near zero impact on performance. 
 
Resist the urge to add human tits to a weird interdimensional monster just because it's female. The lovecraftian horror that comes from unknown things from beyond our world is reduced when they have relatable human features. 
 
(other than that, looks good :) 
Relatable Human Features 
Like breathing. 
 
CZG told me that you need to add a vagina... which, I assume, is where vorelings come from?

Also make a birthing animation.

Screw all these guys not wanting a female vore ;) 
Skiffy 
can you make the vore really twitchy? like really fast acceleration of movements.

might make her seem more arachnid-like 
Vore 
I think it could make a subtle suggestion of female anatomy, yes. If people notice, it adds an even more twisted look. So far is looking great.

I saw Fifth's shambler video. Its movements are so well done, so smooth, it's impossible not to wait for all other monsters' revamp. 
Mankrip 
Man, this is some wicked render! Retroquad (I still love "Retrowheel", but anyway) is gonna be outstanding. 
P.S.: 
it's very clear now that you're not reinventing the wheel: this and other screenshots show what you're trying to achieve and it looks very unique. 
Agreed With Metlslime And Adib 
I always got a feminine vibe from the vore monster.

I think subtle suggestions would enhance the model but nothing further than that in my opinion.
