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 :} 

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? 

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!! 

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 :) 

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 ;) 

can you make the vore really twitchy? like really fast acceleration of movements.

might make her seem more arachnid-like 

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. 

Man, this is some wicked render! Retroquad (I still love "Retrowheel", but anyway) is gonna be outstanding. 

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. 

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. 

You guys hang out with the wrong women. I never got the "vore is a girl" thing :/ 

you haven't met my ex. 

According to the Quake manual, the vore is male!
I concur with metl's statement. 

Oh god this is the new "Fiends have eyes" / "Shamblers have fur", isn't it? :( 

You know, it's� "there". You know� 

Hands up for skiffy! 

Vore idle confirmed 

Both of you, unbridled geniuses. 

Awesome vore! Tho I'm also not a big fan of humanisation of creatures from another realm. It should be more unhuman that human.

Madfox: this is so great! You made my day!
