Comments, critiques welcome if you can muster one up.
Not sure where I'm going with this doodle so I thought I'd ask the hive mind.

They kinda look like a cross between something technological, & some sort of snail. RoboSnail? :)

Added some other things to the first things.
They do bear an unfortunate resemblance to that silly transmorgifier from 'The Fly', although it was unintentional. They are actually parts of the fresnel lens out my old lighthouse scene.
Volumetrics, depth cue, and projector lights are features along with an high poly ground object created with a Coolpowers plugin and then warped with the bend tool.
See the new image below (or above) depending on how you have your thread preferences set.

If you don't need them for anything, they would be ideal for my next pepe movie poster; David Bonenberg's The Sty...:rolleyes:

I'm sorry but are you giving us the finger?:confused:
Was it something I said?

In the 60's I had a "Peace Sign" candle made of wax. A hand with 2 fingers raised for peace, however the index finger broke off and apparently you found it........

I think everyone who had one of those things 'accidently' broke off the index finger. It symbolized 'Peace *and* Love' that way.
I wonder where it's gone... probably melted into a formless wax blob in the attic by now.

They should be emitting low level light.

By now we still don't know what these uh, things are ;). Any story behind that ? (you know, every picture should tell a story).
