Beast of Burden - Character - zusty

#12

The muscles are getting better and better. I think one thing that might look cool is if you gave him bumps (from the spine) along the top of his back. Maybe something like cross-shaped ridges could be cool.

#13

Interesting idea. I’d kind of been operating under the assumption that he had kind of a dorsal sternum, but there’s no reason I couldn’t put something up there, if only some rib protrusion. Hm, I’ll get on that.

#14

Oh…OK, well a comrimise between the two ideas that could be really cool if done right is having spinal ‘masts’ like on the back of a Spinosaurus, but instead of having them incased in a thin membrane have them incased in muscle. :shrug:

just my 2 cents

#15

hey i really like this idea! :bounce:

The way the character’s shape flows (i picture it as…hmm… a curved lower-case N shape.) is really neat. I like the concept, and the execution is coming along.

#16

Thanks!

ZrO-1, how about something like this?

#17

That is exactly as I was picturing it. Awesome stuff. I think the only other thing I might try is make 2 maybe 3 more foreward of the shoulders as well. Perfect design-wise though. If I did them that’s how I’d do them.

#18

So, like this?

I think I’m going to start in on the harnessing now…

#19

This creature is really great…far more better than the koweepe (or called something similar) creature of starwar episode 1 & 2…better LUKAS TAKES U IN HIS TEAM!:airguitar

#20

Hahaha… thanks!
What’s this episode 2 creature? I think i missed it.

#21

Is the creature that anakin ride and then fall down…remember?

#22

Oh, the creature in the field? Around Lake Como?

#23

Wait, is it this guy?

#24

Trying some harnessing…

#25

#26

Great! I like the originality of your concept and even though it is still early on, I like the harness design a lot too.

small crit: I think the muscle and bone structure need a bit more shaping to them, it seems like he has a lot of inexplicable corners

love to see more!

Good point, espaki.
Beginning working on some clarification.

#28

It looking really good zusty. The details are really starting to come together.

#29

:thumbsup: I like it! keep up the good work!

#30

Very original! I like. If the head didn’t look so cute compared with the rest of it, it would look really vicious! A ready-to-pounce sort of look.:scream:
