Well. First of all. I dont get it. You draw pretty well. Were did you did this sketch!?!? In the bathroom?!?! Dont tell me.. Its because of the deadline!!! Suuuuure. YOu better star working pal!!! :shame: heheheheh But I love the concept. Or part of it at least. The front of the beast and the torso are great!!! :thumbsup: the back.. well... Its nice and all. That would make the beast's work a lot easier. buuuut. ITS UGLY!!! lol!!! But ugly dosen't count here. So overall its just a GREAT concept!!! Congrats man!! :beer: Cant wait to see u model that!! heheh

Hey Zardoz, welcome to the challenge, great to have you here.
I love your challenge entry. I think having the wheels as part of the beast is an awesome idea. it kind or reminds me of those cat or dog wheel-chairs that I have seen on TV. :D

Nice sketch as well. I look foreward to seeing your 3D work. :thumbsup:

Waiting for comments.

Hi Zardoz,
3D looks just like the sketch, well done. i like it so far, specially the eye area.
It's too early to crit really, but keep up the good work, it's looking great.

here goes a small update on the head (i'll try and start the body soon...i know this is a "beast of burden" challenge and not a "head of a beast of burden" challenge...).

there are some mistakes, like in the mouth but i want to give it more detail so that's why it's still that way...

Way to go Zardoz :thumbsup:

This is getting to be a very cool beast.
Just two crits. It lacks a bit of back muscle detail. And the muscles in the legs are to rigid, almost as mechanical. The rest is going great. I really like that metal joint in is torso. very cool! :buttrock:

Wow! Holy crap zardoz, that is looking really fantastic. I'm really sorry I havn't replied more to this. Somehow I've managed to overlook it since the last time I replied back in the middle of the month. I'm really sorry about that.

I love the way you have the chariot/rig shaw attach to the beast. I think the bio-mechanical bits rock! I also like your chariot/rig shaw design. I think the flexy axles attaching to the wheels are hilarious. Very cool :D The controls your adding up in the chair are looking Great.

Really fantastic work so far. Excellent craftmanship. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

ok guys, these are my last posts with final renders. Sorry for the size of the pics (small) but I don't have a very fast computer and i'm trying to post a few but time is running...tomorrow I'll post larger renders (no more modelling!!) I don't know if It will be valid, but it's almost midnight (I'm feeling like cinderela!:love: ).
I'll try to post 2 more pics.
