WIP: Creature - Coobah

[HyMz]

coming along nice :D

the transition from concept to 3d is good.

the only thing what "boters" me is the muscle on the upperleg but as you said its in a very early stage :D

what kind of creature is it? mix between a bird and a dog? :D

keep it up :buttrock:

[Yoshua]

Update! :eek:

I have just done a bit more work on the model. I still have a fair amount of modeling left to do still, I think. :)

Hope you like, what do you think?

Lol, I never actually thought of what type of creature it was. I firstly just sketched it onto paper, then because I did not have a good scanner or digital camera I just drew it with my mouse in Photoshop and used my sketch as a visual reference.

Im now thinking its a cross between a Bird, Dog and Bull, cause I plan to add horns, which I never drew in my concept.

Thanks

nice :D

you're staying true to the concept wich is really nice :D

the only thing i dont like are the toes :shrug:

are you planning on texturing it?

keep up the good work :beer:

[Yoshua]

Yeah, Im planning on Texturing it for sure. I also want to Animate it. I must admit I have done very little Animation and after viewing the Massive Animation (by Mattcioffi) I am really exicted to do so.

First I want to finish modeling. :)

I was not really sure on what to do with the feet, I did not put much detail into them in the concept. My plan was to have them as is, with Claws coming out of the Toes and Heal. I was also thinking of making them like a Cows foot.

What do you think?

Thanks for the comments :wavey:

[HyMz]

looking forward to see him textured and even perhaps animated :D

Animating is hard but its fun to do :)

I dont think a 'predator style' claws ( like a hawk ) would suite him mainly because i think he's kinda cute :D

perhaps small claws would look nice, dunno :shrug:

cows feet would suite him better i guess :)

keep it up :beer:

[Yoshua]

Update!

Firstly I modeled the foot better and also changed some other parts.

In this next pic I gave some more detail to the head, hope you like it.

Do you think I should keep adding lots of detail all over the model? or should I just do that in the Textures?

He is meant to be a pretty nasty creature, thats why I choose this style of foot. :)

Ive still gota add the Arms, Tail and all his Claws too.

Thx for the comments :thumbsup:

[Yoshua]

Another Update!

Finally he has grown some Arms, Tail and Claws, hope you like. :)

Ive still got a bit of modeling to do yet before I start texturing and rigging for Animation. :thumbsup:

Hmm, I have not had much of a responce from ppl, how do you think it's coming along? any pointers to enhance the model?

I might actually post the Wireframe pretty soon, let me know if you want to see it. But for now I will leave it until Ive finished modeling. :)

Thx

[HyMz]

sweet model :D

one thing that caught my attention is that you have a nice set of wringles below the eye but no real eyelids etc :D

and the amount of details in the body is to low in comparison with the body.

other then that no critiques, coming along really nice :D

cant wait to see it textured :thumbsup:

[Yoshua]

A small update, not much.

I just added a few details here and there, but I now find I need to clean the mesh up a bit.

I really do need to put eye lids or something around the eyes too.

Anyways I think I just need to add a few more details, clean it up and then start texturing. :thumbsup:

I hope it ends up as good quality work as others on the forum. :D
