Here’s my wires…

Good modeling… can’t wait to see it textured

#37

Thanks, Betooo. Looking forward to that, myself.:slight_smile:
I’m still getting on with modelling bits and pieces for this and will be updating soon:thumbsup:. However, do any of you challenge enthusiasts have any suggestions for extra equipment I can give my creature?

Enough?

Because you ask so kindly, I’ll pain my mind some more:

-Amulets/Wards

-Another big weapon. Two big weapons, hung crossed on his back should look :thumbsup: IMHO

-Ranged weapon: cross bow, bow (think Lurz!), etc.

-A buckler

Well, that’s it for now, but if you still need more, just ask :wink:

#41

Amulets, hmm… Excellent.:slight_smile:
Crossed weapons on his back? Well, he’s got cross-belts on his chest - it’s still a possibility though. It would look:thumbsup:. I’ll see about that…

Wolvy, where would I be without ya?:cool:
You think of anything else, let me know.:wink:
Not sure how many extra things I will be able to handle now (since the challenge will be over in a few days), but ya never know!:thumbsup:

#44

Mage, thanks for the comments.:thumbsup:
I have to work on those toes, yeah. I’ll shape them and add some claws too.:wink: Tell me if your beady eye spots anything else that needs attending to. (Even though the challenge is coming to an end, it’s still worthwhile taking feedback into account, since I’ll continue modelling on it afterwards.):cool:

Patience is a vitue, like knowledge is power, and yet ignorance is bliss.

In other words, I want it know: first come first get, the fast and the furious, the faster the better.

Keep going! :cool:
