I really love the surface that Boglurker has in this . (am I allowed to link to Deviantart stuff? Apologies if not) so trying to recreate something along those lines is next on the agenda.
I also quite like the idea of a layer of water above the quicksand or trappy mud underneath but that's tougher to do.
Anyway, as this IS the drawings thread not the asking for advice thread, heres's Merrin from SW Jedi Survivor...
Oh yes the texture in Boglurker's piece you've linked to is amazing. I've found some success in playing with D-formers, but I've also cheated by creating a primitive, or using an environment that has a water body like a pond or lake, then using the right shaders to give it the appearance of a nice muddy swamp. I've also used Aiko's muddy skin tutorial to make my characters muddy, along with decals.
What's your DeviantArt username?
