Looks pretty neat!

There's a bit of a disconnect between the character's shoulders and arms. The arms don't look like they're extension's of his body.

Keep it up!

mike , o yeah i see what you mean

zman , yeah they are oversized i really like the look of the huge feet thought and i think the idea of feet like that as iv seen on worwolfs etc is to have super fast running speed, like when we run we only use the toe section to get better speed.

argh i hate doing hands

afew ideas to put onto my demon most will be done just with textures

only got to add a few pushyout* things dont know what to call them hair chains and afew flaps

ps how would game textures be done if they involve more then 1 map as i want to do the head + transparent bits (hair and chain)
on a seperate map then the body. would this just be done a seperate map, this is really just because id like to know as i am going to do it just as lightwave lets you anyway.

didnt get anything done today went to a friends then watched a film so no time atsept to put these little ideas down on paint
