MERBman 3Difies your Tiny Little People!

Post by MERBman »

I'll admit beforehand I have an ulterior motive for this, but please, do look at it as simply a little art experiment.

First off. Lemme say I've always been attracted to modular characters, either based off or directly founded from some kind of template. And from this, you get:
Image
GASP! Tiny little people!

Yes, they're tiny little people. But various kinds of people, indeed.

Now, I figured since these little guys are so fun to play around with, I'd invite the rest of you to take this handy little template, here:
Image
And see what kind of tiny little people you can come up with!

Rules are simple:
Stick mostly to the template. Use it as a base image, draw over it, whatever. Can be varied in appearance, obviously, but should match the basic form pretty closely, though some deviation (horns, ears, big hands, whatever) can work, of course.

Go crazy! Lemme see what you got.

Very nice-looking. And cute, too.
Though the hair is a bit... complicated?

I have a strange attraction to the tiny people!


Must draw one of my own!

These are all fascinating, of course.

Don't you think yours is a little complex, Orion?

I didn't figure he looked that much more complex than some of the people in the beginning like the glasses dude and the zombie. Besides, if cthulhu doesn't get his props he would have devoured this thread and all within it.

No, I mean, it's kinda out from the template. What with the wings and tentacles and all.

And now, to reveal my ulterior motive!
I've already done all my examples, so:

(Before anyone asks, yes, custom face textures, custom from-scratch 3D model, and customized bone systems, all original material. I'm not stealing off anyone. Fully poseable.)
