Actually I started this 4 days ago, so I have some wips, I'll post beneath. This is because I could'nt get to a scanner, and wanted to post my sketch in the first post. Now I've made the skcetch with a Wacom...


Amu Rash:
This creature, the Amu Rash, lives at the edge of the forests. It's nocturnal, rather shy and about 1.5 meter high. The forests near the Shire has been clear of them for several centuries now, but it still happens, that a hobbit is hunted down from time to time in the outer edges. The creature lives and hunts in packs, and is allways on the road to ensure a steady stream of prey, hence the design of the legs, which permits it to travel long distances as well as sprint. The creature has an IQ of a Cave Troll but has but has strategic abilities, when it comes to hunting in packs. It is neutral.

just wanted to say that this one is looking promising,
so far i like it very much. :)
i like the head and back. cool.
just a couple of suggestions: i think the area where the thighs join the body requires some more concrete definition: its a bit vaque at present. perhaps look at how big cats legs work....
other thing is the pecs: they come to a point at the nipples that makes them look a bit femenine.
aside from these two little things i like it lots: keep going
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

And another update (click for large version):
http://www.andromeda9.com/cgtalk.com/beast07_small.jpg (http://www.cgchallenge.com/entries/6804/20_large.jpg)

Adjusted about everything, still needs to adjust the area where the thighs join the body though. I'm just about to call this one final, and to try to figure out the UV mapping in Maya; This is my first project in Maya ever :) The color will be in this tone, perhaps a bit more light grey. The eye texture is wip, still too low detail. They might get more yellow...

@cakeypigdog:
Thanx. :)
About the nipples - it was suposed to look like it has a bit loose skinn on the breast muscles, but i guess I can see your pont.

looking good, but you should change the eyes, I like the catlike pupil but the green should be more blurred :shrug:
