Just finished watching the program Alien Planet on Discovery Channel, and I really loved some of those animals! Very cool. I particularly liked the Groveback and that scythed arm carnivore that lived in the forests.
I hope someone puts together some resin garage kits of those. I liked the Unths too. [:p]
Some of the designs were sort of off, but nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Leo and Ike probes are awesome! I think I found my next project.
I haven’t seen the show, bu If I’m not mistaken, it’s based on a Wayne Barlowe book from about 15 years ago called Expedition. Great paintings in that book.
Barlowe was one of the consultants and apparently provided a lot of inspiration for the CGI. I didn’t get the impression that it was just an adaptation, though, as in the credits they didn’t list it as so (not that I recall). When they interview Barlowe, they identify him as the author of Expedition.
