Awesome update! He is really coming along! I especially like the color scheme and the drum is a nice touch. Have you though about adding any war paint or head dress to his face? Just a thought. Good stuff!

#23

Unleash your inner Giraffe!

Thanks again for your comments!

I’m Moving on to 3D…
Here’s the base model in quads. Not final in any way (forgot the tail too). Next will be sculpting, then back to create an updated base.

The first time I see your giraffe, it hooked me completely! Nice concept! :thumbsup:

I love this giraffe. I really like his outfit, it has a lot of asymmetrical appeal to it. The drum looks a bit prefabricated though, maybe make it a stretched hide drum? But I’m not sure what a giraffe would think about that. Shin guards are fantastic as well. It is a very well put together concept.

I’ve been working on the initial sculpt for the last couple nights.
Here are some screen shots:

I still need to go in and work the fine details and refine a few areas.

GearType2: Thanks for your comments! You’re right, at first I imagined him with a stretched hide drum…but I really wanted it to be a snare drum. I don’t know. I may decide to change when I get there. =)

looks good! definately original

#31

I like your idea go ahead man …

#32

Wow! The sculpt is coming along! He really is making a great transistion from your concept to 3d model. You have done a nice job mixing the human/giraffe muscles, it looks very natural. I am looking forward to seeing him with his accessories. Keep it up!

#33

This, undoubtedly, is original. Wanna see how you’re gonna work on it.

#34

I was out of the country for the last 10 days and I’m just now getting back to my character. Today I’ve been finishing up re-topologizing my design sculpt for low/med poly.

14 days left…:argh:
