:bounce: :wavey: :drool:
good thing it´s a wip…belly needs ALOT o work…i´m saying this as your friend damn it…gimmi your 19" lcd allready…f00’ or do i have to come over there n steal it ? 
Very good features! What’s up with his stomach? Too much soup?
I love the detail already put in to this!
w00t that’s an awesome more, Sir Manfred! 
Oh, and a great concept too!! Looking forward to seeing the back story too 
Are you using Lightwave? That looks a bit like a LW render. If so, you should check out that FIs_wrinkle plugin to add cool details into the body 
I love the ears!
What might be cool, and to add some extra detail to that very cool bent neck, would be to add the spinal bones sticking out - I’d imagine that the spine would be taking quite a lot of pressure from the weight of the head, and it might be cool to show that by having the skin pulled tight over the spinal column
Thanks people!
Leigh: Im not using LW… its Max all the way I have thought about the spinal thingy you mentioned and i thought that i would come to details like that when the general body proportions is done Thanks again for your reply.
Heya very cool character like I said to ya earlier. THe only thing I would work on right now, is giving that gut some gravity
Looking forward to more
salud
Thanks lil D’
Here is an update for you people, not a big one, but a fair one…
Thanks for any replies and stuff like that.
The background story:
These are the Murdûk people They are a constant travelling people. Althou, they sit all the time. They sit on the backs of giant lizzard like creatures. (Wich i will also model) Its common for this race to have rather big bellys, thats because they dont move much and doesn’t have many eating breaks. Since they sit almost all the time, they have developed these odd crooked backs. That is for getting them a nice and comfy sit.
Looking pretty good, the texture is gonna play a huge part in this. What ya got planned??
Nice work as usual manfred
All is good for a start of a begining good thing that your just putting the basics in first then deal with the realism later. as long as you get your basics down on that model then do what ever u can think of
Keep it comming don’t give up man
Thanks mates.
Please! More crits. I would like to hear if you have any ideas for stuff to add to this charater
Anyways… here is a test animation i did

Enjoy
And regards!
youre getting good bro…!!! it shows…you’ve come along way …keep it up and I want to see this guy finished!!!:bounce:
That’s looking good I like the addition of the spine bumps - very cool Although they do need some tweaking in terms of their shape - at the moment, they just look like warts or something. Spinal bones have a very specific shape, but I’m sure you are going to do that anyway
Cool stuff though, looking forward to the next update
Looking awesome…such detail from one post to the next…great job Sir…you’re really kicking ass on this one…keep it up:thumbsup:
Allright… only one more last render. GI this time… but then i gotta go to sleep!
Remi: Thanks alot, man
I must hurry, hurry, hurry! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
