Beast of Burden - Character - Danko

wow!! great idea!! I love the mix between these exotic animals!
I’m impatient to see the reptail-tail ( :smiley: )
Don’t forget post a human to see how much big it is!

I think you can start to think in the colors… maybe the brown (lion’s color) is too much evident… what about black and white like a zebra?
The armour color it depends of the social state of it… so could be gold or dirty material :rolleyes:

I wish you keep us updated! :wip:

Excellent Super-Duck you have there Pabbloz! :applause: hehehe Thanks for the comments! I agree about using less evident colours, will work on this at the end. I’m always forgeting the human for scale comparison so thanks for remind me on this! :slight_smile: I like the idea of the social status armour, I take it! :thumbsup:
Ok, some more screens of the BOB as I’m going with it now. I’ve noticed that related to the human it turns onto a MEGA ULTRA HUGE beast and not too sure of this… but anyway… :hmm:

Ops… remade the back thing and add the human… :rolleyes:

I really like the neck when you stretched it in PS. I might even try stretching it a touch more. That helped bring out the lion aspect to the model in the profile. I really like the new modeling you have done. As I’m writing this I thought of one other suggestion: Gorrillas and lizards are both sort of barrel-chested. Maybe you might want to try expanding the ribs a bit more to give your BoB a bit of a barrel-chested look as well. It should fit with it’s big bulging front legs.

Thanks for the comments Zr0-1! :slight_smile:
I’m thinking on stretching the neck as in the PS pic and will also work on the barrel chest idea. I think it’s really a good apreciation and will maybe fit better to the gorilla and lizard shape. I’ll be on holydays in Dublin for 10 days since today so won’t do anything until august. Is there any irish by here? I guess I’ll be out of time for the challenge… :rolleyes: (again) but will continue working on it and will try to post the progress althought in another diferent forum. My intention is to finish the body at all (chest, neck, hands an feet) and continue doing the armor and details once the anatomy is fully finished. Anyway, that won’t be until a couple of weeks. I’ll try to keep an eye on the challenge somehow to see how all that great entries end up. Meanwhile here I left a last side view render. C u soon :wavey:

Oooh! each post I like more this beast!.. but I’ve not thought it was soooo big!! :smiley:
Now… the humans looks like they were small… so when you do a scene you will have to add trees and a lot of references of the scale to indicates the big is the beast :smiley:
Just a suggestion… maybe you can do a longer “chest”… in other words… separate a bit the back-legs from the front ones.

much better render!

That’s a pity you stop the thread during two weeks or so… :annoyed: anyway… enjoy in Dublin! :thumbsup:

looking good good good!
but, I don’t like the red eyes… the eyes are the passage to a characters soul, they need more attention!
that’s just my opinion though… red eyes has a tendance to look evil, might me what you’re going for. but you can make eyes that’s both evil and “alive” if you’re cleaver :wink:

keepin’ an eye on you! :thumbsup:
