Beast of Burden - character/contraption - TJViking

#21

yup!

thanks a lot… they were crossing over…
corrected now :wink:

#22

OK

I sketched out the legs…

will add more details later

now moving to the head

#23

really likin your beast… the only thing I would make the feet in the back a little bigger or some how different from the front feet…but they do look great!:thumbsup:

#24

yup! I thought the same… I will change the
back feets somehow… but I am closing the shape as the whole and I left that concept for some time…

Today I will post the head and try to reshape that ugly feets - really do not like them :wink: they look awfull…

#25

ehhh! no gums, no teeth… no idea how to finish
that ugly doggy style head :wink:

any ideas?

#26

your dog is fine (hes cute)
just make ut sade not happy :wink:

and for the character make some mice that sits on hem
:slight_smile:

#27

he,he,he… nope!

I will go toward making him more aggressive… but
coz I’m very silent person… my characters always are
so cute , lazy and patient … so I am :wink:

#28

Nice modelling :slight_smile: you use povray ? what do you use for modelling the beast ?

#29

yes, I am rendering in POVRAY 3.5 - because it is increadibly fast
and got GI on the board :wink:

Modelling done in Metaseqoia, small japanese software,
very robust and simple - it has mirror modelling, subdivision
surfaces.

#30

Metasequoia ?!? Ok google here i come ! :wink:

anyway that’s the proof it’s the artist that counts, well done again. :beer:

#31

baby got its teeth ;

tomorrow will fix legs and proceed for adding more details

#32

i dig those hands/feet…
those teeth looks kind of harmless tho…dont u think?

#33

yes, legs are not too good … will fix them

and about teeth… yes… too white :wink: and too stright - will skew
them a bit :wink:

thanks for suggestions!

#34

because we cannot use textures… so it will be no tar on teeth,
but some kind of paradontose and directional weakness :wink:

#35

OK. Say goodbye to Mr Low-Poly Control Cage…

Please welcome Mr Fine Control Cage :beer:

Today proceeding to refining shape and adding details :bounce:

#36

changing the shape lightly first

#37

I really love the feet you made. That’s a really incredable job you did on them. And all of the twisted cables on the sled look great as well. To be honest I don’t think I really like the head. I think it’s because it looks too soft in comparisson to the rest of the body, and it doesn’t really fit with a beast that has spikes running down it’s back.

Just my 2 cents though. Great technique overall. I like how the piece is coming along. :thumbsup:

#38

Yeah, thats really a great character - he has loads of personality already :thumbsup:

#39

Thanks for the comments Leigh & ZR-O :wink:

I will remake the head a little…

But now assembling the beast/contraption… it is time to
add some lines inbetween…

#40

oops! no that render :wink:

GI is a must in nowadays :slight_smile:
