That lump on the right side of the face? I did do that to emphasize an eye would have been there, nice job picking it up haha. I also went with a female clicker just to go something different, as the Kai one seems to be the most common. It is a nice sculpt, but I like variety.

I actually was talking about the remaining eye on the right side, not the lump on the left. I thought those Clickers were the creepier ones. And yeah, the Kai one is very generic. I prefer a more versatile look for a Clicker.

Oh, there is no eye on the other side. The fungal split starts at the top lip, so by the time it got up to where I had marked the eyes it had completely covered them. Might just look that way due to poorly lit photography etc. On the left side of the photo I made the lump protruding out to make it look like prior parts had been pushed up but not fully consumed by the fungus. On the right side, which I don't think is very visible, I did the same to have the fungus blending into the ear as well.

Here are some of the early working photos, when I began painting but before hair etc. They seem better lit.

So that bump which looks like two lids on the right side, was that the eye you said that got swallowed over from the Cordyceps?

I think we might be talking about the same thing but mixing up lefts and rights as in I might interpret the wrong side of what you mean.

3rd pic, Right side of the face, left side of the picture, yeah that thing that looks like 2 closed lids is supposed to be a messed up eye lol.

Yeah I think we were getting turned around

Like I said, I thought the Stalkers were the creepiest thing within the game since they still had a little bit of their face still since they weren't full Clicker yet. So partially having an eye makes that sculpt great.

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

I agree, shame they weren't used very much. I have considered making a runner and a bloater eventually as well. But they will come after this is all finished, Ellie and Joel are finished and I finish my other customs lol. Maybe by then we will have word of a sequel.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

Bloater would probably be a real chore. And yeah, sucks Stalkers weren't in the game more. They seem to be only located within the sewers section. They even had the creepiest noises.

Good example of a Stalker's face. The teeth you did are pretty spot on with this.

Is marlene related to Riley somehow? i kinda see a resemblance? if i remember correctly marlene is close to ellies mom right?

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

I didn't even see this! So the DLC is about Riley huh? That's pretty cool, we had backstory on Joel but not Ellie first hand.

Quite possible, maybe that's one reason why Marlene took care of Ellie since she was close to her daughter.

Oh wow dude, great pic. I am now going to sculpt a male Stalker just because of how epic that photo is.

I forgot how cool they looked, in game I rarely got to see much due to unloading shotgun fire into them as soon as they show themselves.

They were the most difficult to kill since they were unpredictable since they prefer to run back and forth to hide and run out after you randomly. I liked the Clickers, but Stalkers were my favorite infected in the game, obviously.

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

Was the only part with them the bit in the flooded basement? Trying not to spoil anything obviously, but that was the only part I can remember after the generator goes on.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

Oh crap I forgot about that. Yes in the hotel basement there was Stalkers. When you get the key card, or turn the generator on they start coming out. And it's nerve-racking since they just don't outright attack out.

 

[Willywilto]

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

I didn't see any between getting into that area, and turning on the generator, then they all kinda came in single file and I shot them all in the face before mr bloat came trudging in. I think I must have fluked not provoking any earlier on let alone seeing them, or maybe its because that playthrough was just on normal lol.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

You can just go right to the generator and then they come out with the Bloater. Or you can go to the security office first and just the Stalkers come out, maybe 5 of them.

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

Ah see, both playthroughs so far Ive gone generator first, then keycard. That makes sense then. I found the little generator area to be a good hold point for fighting off the hoarde there.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

Yeah it's the best spot, and when you think about it you don't really have much choice otherwise. You can run upstairs and avoid them altogether if you got the key card already.

You should try next time getting the card first to see something different.
