Cool!

Hehe, I thought so ^_^ Pitty Im posing characters, though, when I should be making another one >_>

But I like playing/modeling with dragons more than people XD

Whoa, Loong road before me.

Well practice makes perfect... but to get an edge, you need to grill quad modeling and edgeloop modeling techniques into your head. They provide the best base for creating characters that can animate, as well as characters that can be mesh smoothed without having artifacts that pop up.

Learning form and contour are mane things people first have issues with when they start learning. For example people may beable to model something so its perfect from a front view, but soon as you turn it, you realize it is not formed correctly in others..

Creatures generally arnt boxy, unless its a Haminal :p

The deformations look good. He needs to stretch those long limbs :)

So you can get a peek at them? XD

I want to cuddle and hug hiiiim, he's so cute

awww and thats cute too :3

Wowo Awesome Render. ^.-.^ Very nice structure

Thanks :)

Did you use NURBS when you created this? Looks so smooth and detailed :o

No, its all polygons, though I did do one iteration of smooth on it. To keep them smooth, you just need to make sure you use quads, otherwise you will get spokes or points in the mesh... to keep it detailed while being smoothed you use edgeloop modeling, to keep things flowing and defining..

Nurbs are awsome for being smooth, but it can be a pain stitching elements together, and its just used for game models... which this piece could be used for (well when its unsmothed)

That looks amazing. I love the design.

Oh very nice =D

Awesome 3D render, I love the wat the light reacts with the flesh and how it looks like a solid mass, as well as the way you can make out some of the muscle structure

Honestly, there isnt any light besides the default render light XD I just put a gradient behind him and came up with a snazzy title... Yes the material really washes out the muscle form easily visible on here.. Its the problem with 3d procedural textures is they wrap around so smoothly... I probably ought to render some special composite lairs to boost that subtle shading more in the future :)
