hey Fetus,
great concept it’s going to be very cool. Only one very small crit, the wart things are all perfectly round, you might want to randomise them ap a bit (you probably were going to anyway)
Look forward to the next installment.
Cheers.

great BoB you have. I like the design and proportions. The size and shape of the house on its back is awesome too. great work.

its commin along nicely, great proportions, clean mesh, and i really like the wrincles on the feet, looks sort of birdish, i think i would almost give him a beak(like a steggasaurus) instead of lips and teeth, dont stop

good modeling, the wire looks very clean. the sketch\concept ain’t bad either
BUT: I would bevel the “warts” out from the mesh instead of just cutting\pasting “balls” onto it. it ain’t hard, just bevel and tweak. it will look MUCH better I assure you. at least if you’re going to make closeups.
take care

wow good job on that head in just 2 HOURS! Its simple and i dont see any triangles. Do a smooth/subdivided render. An Overall appealing shape to the head… looks great

latest render (unsmoothed)…
thank you for the compliments!
fellah: thanks! …Im lazy :wip:…but i’ll do it because i know it will look ALOT better…
rizob: yes indeed, he does have a bird like head…I’m working on riging the mouth and a jaw full of teeth but a beak is a good idea…a beak can have teeth i think

dehm 
love it.
don’t have any crit really… i really like the look of him… look a bit evil… and that’s gooood
i guess the “warts” give a bit of the “mean”-look.
and those teeth… ah… it’s coming along really well.
and by the way, i just got my BoB’s jaw right an update will be along soon.
keep up the good work.

haha, yeah, pounce pounce… <lol>, you’d better watch out or he’ll crush you with his mighty paws

Sorry three, no WWII going on anymore :)…took off the hat to make way for a throne…

wow thats really kick ass! I love it. I cant see any problems besides something quite minor. That leather strap might fall off his head if he leans forward Maybe another strap around the back of his head would secure it

crode: thanks man, I’m glad you like what I’ve done so far. Good point about the strap. I didn’t notice that one. As you said another strap should solve the problem.
I have all week off work so I should have no excuse for not finishing this guy on time. Still have to make the tree, add some trinkets to the hut (satilite dish, antenas, lanterns, more clutter), and work on the beasts body and legs which i haven’t really touch so far. Also, rigging and posing at the very end.
more fun stuff on the way!!!

Allright, allright… a throne will probably look cool, i really liked the little helmet tho
and i love the hut! it will look goddamn hot with a satellite dish. i mean, who doesn’t have one of those these days? eh, i don’t have one, but hell, i use cable
gimmie more updates… this one’s cool.
:applause:
