WOW!

Great reference drawings and great 3d model so far.

I agree, you model as well as you draw.

#42

Waw! Really nice work!!!
Great idea! A mixing between Planet of the ape and lord of the ring! This character is really frightening!

Your sketches are very nice! :thumbsup:
And the 3D model started very well!!!

#43

Odrakir : thanks !

totich : merci beaucoup :beer:

some early smoothing… just to see how it looks like…

#44

That’s looking awesome! :thumbsup:
Regards

#45

bravo m@.

it looks great!
I imagine it with big theet!

#46

cocoknight : thanks…:beer:

Magnusv : thanks. But I still think I will go with an ape. I think it fits Tolkien’s world very well:p … I don’t think adding horns or whatever will make it better.

NANONEEN : thanks! t’inquiète, les grosses dents vont venir…:wink:

updates to come soon

Update :

(the thing in the mouth is the start of the gum…)

#48

#49

This is looking great so far, nice concept and it looks like you’re on you way to pulling it off in 3d as well.

#50

#54

That is looking very cool, and very accurate against your concept images.

Vertex

That’s fantastic :thumbsup:
You could possibly make his teeth a little bit bigger though - even the gorillas we have in this world have slightly larger fangs :slight_smile:
You could also maybe make his brow slightly heavier… Just a thought :slight_smile:

Otherwise, a fabulous model! :smiley: Looking forward to seeing some ears…

#56

#57

very cool model

#58

Nice to see someone my age pull off drawings and 3d the way you are. Great start thus far, and a nice clean mesh. This one will be one to watch, ill keep my eye out for it, hopefully you’ll finish though, Ide hate to see a good idea placed on hold… Keep up the good work.

vertex : thanks. Sketching doesn’t need to be accurate, it’s meant to have a style… I’m not fast enough to sketch in 3d though…

Leigh : :beer: yeah I don’t know why I did those teeth so small… Even in my reference sketches I did much bigger fangs…:shame:, I’m going to correct that.Thanks for your crits :slight_smile:

Koma : thanks a lot :beer: I’ll try to detail it even more… wrinkle wrinkles wrinkles

BladeFX : thank you!

TheSEL : Thanks ! I’ll try to finish though it will be hard work, fur and texture will take time… And look at
Koma 's work, he’s younger than me…

updates to come soon!
