I am playing with creating some bugs/insects, then seeing how they will evolve, Starting from simple form, then adding/changing evolving.

I am not intending to be correct in form etc (I am not trying to create a specific bug/insect) just taking a form and seeing where it goes.

So to start, I just make body/rear (of a flying insect)



So, to see where it goes lol

Ah, this kind of bugs! :)

It kind of reminds me of this method for making kind of blobby-ish type forms:

Hi Michael,

Yes, insect bugs.

Blobby-ish, yes (I had not seen that post), I am following construction via typical nurbs builds, really to see what I come up with.

Just some more fun.

I keep diverting myself, but have added the basic shape of the legs. Will add more detail to those later.



Added outer wings (just to see how they look)

Who needs poly modelling when you have MoI?

Hi Brian,

Making insects etc is not something I have done before in a Nurbs only modeler, so it just a learning exercise for me.

I have re-made the wings, but I am still not happy with them yet.

(edit with small update)

My list of things to try gets bigger!
