Hey folks, it’s been a while. But we’re here today counting down to the release of The Predator, the newest entry into the eponymous franchise. So, to do so, we are going to look at the previous entries in the series to both refresh ourselves and to see how they’ve held up. Today we’re starting with the one that started it all: Predator, from 1987. Since this film is over thirty years old, I’m not worrying about being spoiler-free.
Great job this week folks!
Honourable mention this week goes out to Sam Heness.
Very effective use of colour and shadow. Good job!
Runner Up status thus week goes to Kellkin.
Nice use of the flame effect, and the body looks absolutely molten.
And the win this week goes to…

A few years ago, a contest series ran on the HM Forums where the goal was to design a chess set – piece by piece – so I thought I would give it a try as a CDC. (Above are my entries for the black and white pawn in the original contest.)
So your challenge this week is to create designs for both the black and white pawns. Entries may be submitted as 1 rendering or 2 – it is up to you.
The winner this week will receive a HeroMachine rendering of my version of one of their winning designs.
