I mentioned Terryl Whitlatch before, but didn't showcase any of her work.
She has been apart of many major motion pictures for all the huge names out there, such as George Lucas, James Cameron, Steven Speilberg etc. Her work can be seen all over, in games, movies, books. Her process is like the one mentioned earlier, although I think she came first. But I think it would be hard to find any artist in the industry that doesn't trace some line of inspiration to Terryl.
Here's an example of what she likes to do; notice how the aquatic creature on the right resembles a horse in real life? She does countless life studies of animals before creating a creature from her imagination. Here's a full view
During her demonstration here at UVU, she showed some popular creature designs that she did, such as Jar Jar Binks
She then began to imitate an emu, and said that his walking mimics that of an emu. It was really cool and funny to see.
Sebulba, from that same movie (Star Wars) has a head that is based on a camel. You can see very clearly her knowledge of real animals affecting her creature designs. I will try to emulate this by basing my designs of Mr. Toad, the Rat and Mole on their real life counter parts, but still going an imaginative route.
