I understand this one is not going to be up to everyone's liking, but since I make these for my personal satisfaction and I absolutely love this one I decided to post it on youtube. So I hope you guys like this too.
The reason people won't like the Forest Spirit is because it won't function well in the game and because of this I'm not sure I'll be sharing it on Sporepedia.
Now, heres the thing about this guy, the vision I have in my head of this creature is much different from the end result in Spore but that's the best I could do with the editor. My biggest grip with this creation is that I couldn't texture the vines.
I was in Cyberpunk/Futuristic mood and now I'm in Medieval/Fantasy mood.
So heres my latest creation, a badass Medieval Warrior.
Now, this guy doesn't animate that well because the maces tend to stretch and stuff, however I really don't care, I did my best to make him as good looking and as functional for the game as possible and that's all that matters.
At first I wasn't too happy about how he turned out since as usual I ran out of CM, but after some fiddling with various parts and the CM I got it right and now I think he's awesome.
Apparently the hind legs were no good on my first bear mount, Mr. Ultima96 from LUElinks pointed out this mistake so ol' Kiba decided to fix it right up.
Unfortunately in the game this won't function as a mount, but even so it's still a damn awesome, badass looking bear.
I didn't quite get its head right, it was supposed to look like this:

But it had some terrible clipping when moving so I had to resort to this more simplified version of it.
Still, it turned out great and I hope you guys like it as much as I do.
Species 029 - Arthuria - I wouldn't call this a species, its a single, powerful, highly intelligent entity. She appears to be a part of a much more complex system/machine but due to the limitations of the CC we can't see the rest of it.
--------------------------------------
First and foremost I have to thank NinjaPengui from GameFAQs who linked me to a topic on the official forums that explains in detail how the complexity meter is affected by different parts and covers some glitches and such.
The guy who figured it all out and made that topic is Dhraconus, so a big thanks goes to him as well.
Basically without these two, this awesome "creature" wouldn't have been here now.
Truth is, in-game this creature would be practically useless, but TBH I don't care I just want to make awesome looking aliens :D
Appears to be a highly advanced race, wonder if I should make them the male versions of Species 025, that'd be cool . But, since you can't make different male and female versions of the same creature in Spore in-game that'd be kinda dumb.
Guess I was inspired by BioShock and HALO for this one :)
Species 025 is a humanoid species, but similar to the quarians from Mass Effect they never go anywhere without their suits which they need for survival so we don't really know what these people look like.
