I really loved CHUDD but i think you have a problem with his legs, may be it needs more detailing :)

Nice work. I just have a problem with where to focus on the creature as there is just too much going on.

i love this art it is fantastic, but i was just wondering... how does such a large creature have a mouth so tiny haha. he must spend lots of time taking small bites out of huge monsters and stuff.

This character is huge! At the current camera zoom I can make out all the detail, so you did a good job there, This would truly make a good game asset. Good concept and entry as well.

iKAL; muslemwazer; mindrot - First, thank you , second your comments together express the difficulty I was having in the modelling and composition. The full character really has a lot going on, having to balance how much to show and not show in one image was tricky. If I didn't have the time restraints of the contest, I think it might be a little different. But taken as a whole I am pleased with the result.

eTWONG- Thanks, I intend to :)

freeduke; pum; JokerMax; koolnits; alancamara; Kerem- Thank you everyone for the comments.

yellowworm- Thank you for following it on both sites yellow. I appreciate it

Posthaste- Someone actually asked that very same question while I was modelling it. I guess the idea that he is constantly stuffing living things in his mouth adds to his grotesque nature.

The Don- What can I say to that? :)

REBECCAK- Thank you lots. I'm glad you approve.:)

Hello Alex my friend! I must admit, when I first saw you start this piece I thought it was going to be too over the top BUT! I was wrong you executed this monstrous Creation terrifically well. You are definitely a force to be reckoned with. Hat off to you my friend!
Cheers to Progression!

Nice texturing and good job rendering to capture all the detail.

I am not a fan of 2 things:
1. The big glowing ring on his belt which is distracting and looks like it serves no purpose.
2. The staff. Between his pure size, many legs, hand of a hundred tentacles, does he need a staff too? I could think of enough cool animations of him attacking/defending, that doesn't warrant it. I guess it just seems very cliche to throw onto a non-cliche character.

This is an entry for Dominance war, I am quite sure all characters had to have weapons that reinforced their power. So with that said I think he had to have the staff. I think he broke through the cliche of the staff with that awesome design that it has. Cheers.

First let me say, excellent work.

When I first saw the thread title I thought it was gonna be the actual C.H.U.D.D. character.
As in "Bud the C.H.U.D.D." from the 80's, and I was really hoping it WAS that character.
Oh well, excellent job regardless.
