[ZrO-1]

How the heck did I miss this one so far. I've been looking for your thread too :shrug:

I really like this piece. The large head and stumpy stout body are both really great. The really weird thing is when I look at the last two pics of your I get this weird sense of de ja vu...it's the damndest thing. :surprised

Anyway I really like your work so far. It's definetly in my top 5 right now.

[Mr. Nice Guy]

ZrO-1 thanx for your top 5 ;) and was it a good or a bad de ja vu
:lightbulb

Here is a little update before I go to bed :scream:, first a screenshot of al views and then a new render. But that is almost ready.

[Roman]

ok, ik zou nog verduidelijken wat ik dacht over de voeten.
Kijkend naar de rest van het lichaam, groot, rond/gestroomlijnd, compact, steken de voeten naar mijn mening nogal uit. Ze zijn te plat en te gesperd. Zouden dus naar mijn mening wat hoger mogen beginnen en iets korter mogen zijn. Dus ook de rimpels en nagels zouden wat voller en gestroomlijnder mogen. Dat is in ieder geval wat ik denk, hoop dat je er wat aan hebt. Heb in mijn thread ook wat verduideijkt omtrend de HKU. Succes verder, ziet er mooi uit!:thumbsup:

[ZrO-1]

I'm not sure I like the extruding on the wheels. Right now it looks kind of like you couldn't decide if you wanted spoked wheels or solid wheels so you made them both. :shrug: Sorry but I don't think they do justice to your great BoB.

[Icecube]

Very good, i like the details and the design of your beast, simple, clean and strong, just amazing!



:applause:



Check out my beast here!

[Icecube]

how about the contraption?

[Mr. Nice Guy]

Thnxs for the comments.:bounce:

@ZrO-1 I will take a look at the weels. I am going to make new wheels. And I think they will be open.

@Roman Ok, I now know what you mean with the legs.

@Iguiniz.X. and Roman I will change the feets. I also wasn't happy about them.

@ Icecube Your BoB looks also very good. And the contraption will come. I think I going to work on that tonight.

Tonight there will be a new picture.:thumbsup:

[Clockwork]

Great little model, soft and hard all in one look. Are you going to add any more surface detail to him?

[Mr. Nice Guy]

@ Clockwork Thnx that you like him. Yes I will try to make more surface details to him.

Like I said earlier today here is an update with a new contraption (also new wheels). I will take a look at his feet this weekend.

Please tell me what you think about the new car. There will be more details in it.

[ZrO-1]

much nicer with the new wheels. i really like the new cart design.

[Clockwork]

Great looking cart, You've made the boards uneven which looks great, now perhaps try rotating them a tad so that they don't all look so even, or line up, would add rustic qualities to the cart!

[Mr. Nice Guy]

Haven't done much the couple days. Today I have worked on him. I still haven't done something on his feet. I'm not sure how I want them.

I gave the cart some details. And I gave my BoB a new harness. Tell me what you think about it.

[ChrRambow]

I really love your BoB.
The only thing i don't like are the straight wood slats on your cart.

[Bezerker75]

looking great! maybe you could have one of his horns broken at the tip...like he was pulling this cart and tipped his head down and it stuck in the ground and broke...it might give him a little character...:thumbsup:

[Mr. Nice Guy]

@ Bezerker75 Great idea. :thumbsup: I will do that.

@ KoRn_ART He he, you aren't the first who said that. I will take a look at it. I already did that, but not good yet.:p


And I am happy that everybody :love: my creature. Thanks everybody.

[Octop]

he would probably have problems walking with those big feet/big horns..he would have to take really small steps ;)
I still like it tho..great start on the wagon

[Mr. Nice Guy]

Yes he will take small steps

[ChrRambow]

I think that the reason why everybody love your creature is that he is looking very sweet ;) (in german we say: he looks "knuffig").

If i look at your creature i think that he is a friendly creature that cilds can play with. I am right?

[Mr. Nice Guy]

You're right. When I was modeling this beast I had a English Bulldog in mind. And when I see that dog I always think he looks cute.

[erilaz]

What's wrong with straight wood slats? Doesn't anyone in 3D land know how to build anymore? Personally, I think they're too ireggular at the the front... almost like the cart maker didn't have a saw handy!

That beast is really good. Simple always works the best.

[dmcgrath]

Come on man, the wodden slats that look a little irregular look better. There is nothing worse, or that catches the eye more, than perfect edges. If they are a little bunged up, they will look more like wood. I do suggest to everyone making any type of contraption to bevel the edges on their stuff a little, Nothing in real life is perfect.

[Mr. Nice Guy]

I have done something again to my BoB. :bounce:
And yes I know I am a slow worker :hmm:, but I didn't had much time to do something about my BoB.

So here are some new pics. There haven't change much. But give me some C&C.

[Mr. Nice Guy]

To bad, nobody has given C&C.

But here is a new update. And asking again for C&C.

[otacon]

awesome!:bounce: The harness doesnt look like its touching his skin. And i like the wood planks.:thumbsup:

[Mr. Nice Guy]

Here is a new update, :bounce: please, give some comments :scream:

[pascal_blanche]

nice tongue, really nice character.. the harnest fits well with the beast , but not the contraption (charriot?) the averall thing doesnt have the feeling that I was expecting. too thin, too big maybe? the weels could have more details, like a circle made of iron around it... yup.. wheels are too thin :p

[ilasolomon]

...love your style...:thumbsup:
& maybe he needs some harness in front, on the front legs & shoulder.

Amazing Shape and concept for the Beast But the Contraption is inadeguate,i think, for your original concept..

:thumbsup:
