Rikti Rescued

Some of you may remember this Rikti head I did a while back. Well, through the course of 'hitting the wrong button' I though I had trashed the model.

I'm glad to say, after a lot more experimenting in ZBrush I was able to recover what I thought I had lost. This render is in Maya and clearly shows the project isn't toast.

Rikti Recovered

More to come.

Wow, I thought I said something before. D: I'm really slipping lately...

But, that's one cool and creepy little bit, mang! I can see why you'd be upset at it's loss.

Seeing them like that reminds me how much the Rikti resemble Species 8472.

maybe in the head,, they both have that wedge shaped head and the snout/nose thing, their body shapes aren't anything alike, nor are their ship designs.

Well I have to admit this Rikti is based off the old Rikti designs...more alien, less armor/tech. When I first created the model the new Rikti weren't out yet.

The ID4 aliens were snoutless, but yes, they do look similar. Even the ships.

Awesome work 8Baller.
