A nuew pair of arms for him… But… may be they looks too human?.. I’ll fix hands and pose him with a cargo… and then may be will be more beast like…
What do you think???
thank for all your kind words… They make me work a little more every day… and learn… learn learn…
The modeling is looking great. I love all the little details. I think the new arms are definetly too humanoid. But the beast looks cool overall.
Too humanoid ´(I´ve never been called that 
) and somehow I don´t agree. Does a beast need fangs´n shit ? - don´t think so. It could have a beastly personality which you then would have to illustrate through his (the donkeys) facial expression.
I think that you should put some bumpmaps on him/her to show some scratches and wear´n tear - I know that it´s a WIP though.
Otherwise you could but some replacement parts on him. Put a mechanoid arm or something else on him.
If you decide to keep the teapot, which I hope you do, be aware that there´s the line between being original and just being plain old kliché is hairthin.
Otherwise super modelling - keep rocking dem polys.
Thank you, this help me moreee and moree…
GReat idea Bump maps… The wire in the arms is not very good… I’ll try to fix it if I had time… I’ll put some bump maps and some elements more: Harness, Emblem, some more little things…
I’ll fix hands a little more too…
May be you could see an animation soon… or not soon…
Thaaaaaankssssssss
Wires in the arms ??? Do you mean veins, muscles etc…?
If so I think you should forget about it. Ok you could add a little. But I don´t think that yor character lends itself to adding tons of little details - it´s too cartoonish.That´s actually a compliment in these photorealistic days. Doesn´t he look a little too pleased and relaxed considering he´s dragging a teapot that big???
Well its your model - just sharing my thoughts on it ok?
What about the cargo ? have you made up your mind.
My advice would be to be careful not to start rigging/animating before your model is (almost) done - actually that´s just a waste of time in an image competition - right?
update…now :buttrock:
Yes you’re right… I’ll finished it before rigging…
I say wire (the Wireframe, the polys… are not very regular…) It’s not very good in the arms… not ordened… Do you understand? my english it’s not very good ;-(((( I supouse It’s doesn’t mater at this time…
And you’re right, the pose it’s too relax right now… that’s whay I want to rigg it, to pose and make it tired… or tension… :-))) (Grrrrr I can’t express myself :-))))))
I hope you understand me ;))))
I’ll make some facila expresions too… to give it more life…
Thanks Anyway… Don’t be shy and tel me everythig you want or you think… I like it… C&C… Good for learning…
Everything you said makes perfect sense. As english is my secondary language too, I was thinking in other terms when you said wires - my fault.
Hi, I think I’ve almost finished the character model… Now I’ll pose it with cargo and render final… What do you think?
first time I saw this post…looking real niec…great modeling job!!
the only crit I have thus far is that the ears seem to be attatched really low on the head…maybe just move them up a bit!! can’t wait to see him posed with his cargo!
Well, they are not ears… they’re ponytails… :-))))))) But may be you’re right they could be higher on the head… I think I’ll keep like they’re now… I’ve not time¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ HEHEHEHe
Would I keep the teapot??? With wheels??? HEHEHEH
Yo DK, the model looks great all detailed up. The harness is really cool as well.
I thought those were it’s ears also. I think if they ar pony-tails they need to be moved back on the head, and up a little. Right now they are right where I would imagine the ears would be.
he he he. If it´s ponytail I want ´em forward and down. If it´s the ears I would like them put back and up a little - confused
Actually I think it´s just the opposite of the current model…Lookink really sweet though - and you know I love the teapot. nice work…again
Where are you going ???
I think that your image is near perfect.
Facial expressions really gives the impression of a heavy burden
Lighting setup is neat and I notice that you kept the chrome teapot eventhough textures will not be judged - great…
I thought that you´d abandoned your model as updates where a little slow in the end but was it worth the wait ???
Hell yeah:buttrock:
Thank you… I love to read your comments… I’m going to Ireland on holidays… So I’ll be off OFF OFFFFFF… I’ll be back¡¡¡
here’s a new render of the same thing…
Again,thank you… I have a lot of things to do and to learn…
