WOW! Very nice modeling indeed!!! Itīs very hard to find anything to crit :) Maybe the muscle definition on the back legs look a little off - or is to flat - everything else -> :buttrock:

Wow that quite some amazing work in a short time. The muscle definition in your last wireframe pic is superb. Im surprised it hasnt been seen by very many people. Ill be keeping an eye on your thread and help you any way (if) i can. atm i dont see anything wrong.

heh after looking closer found something... i think the skin around the front claws has some strange angles especially the middle one

The creature DOES roll up and it sees with a large white eye that's difficult to see because his large brow is covering it into the shape of a small slit. It was the only way I knew to make him look like he's straining besides the posture. The only problem is its difficult to judge how to model the eye without making it too big or shape it so it doesnt kill the model (aesthetically). Thanks for all your support and good luck to everyone....more to come
(suggestions welcomed and taken).:bounce:

Balcides, your beast looks incredable. I didn't see anything wrong with the eyes. If you want to make it easier for the viewer to see where the eyes are you could always model a set of blinders on the sides of its head where its eyes are. Then they would sort of make the viewer look where the eyes are.
One question: What is that big thing behind the beast going to be. I can see that the beast is pulling it, but I couldn't tell what it was.

Great work on everything so far. That harness is absolutely awesome.
