Time to take a break from my lightwave-girl-model. so let's enter this competition.

I am going to model a fish called "snoek" ( well, this is how we call it here in the netherlands ).
I'm going for realistic as possible. Never done a fish before...yeah i did one, one year ago or something. but it wasn't look that good, so let's hope this one will turn out better.

Looks like what we (in the US) call a Muskellunge. Good Fishin'.

bullet_evader · 02-05-2005, 06:10 PM

yeah its a muskellunge i think

well anyhow, here is the first update.

swankymonkey · 02-05-2005, 06:37 PM

Hey, Bullet

Lookin' good!

bullet_evader · 03-05-2005, 04:47 PM

Thanks Swankymonkey

Small Update:

Sir_Pro_View · 04-05-2005, 01:31 PM

This would be called a Pike! or in some areas in the US a Jake.
A muskellunge looks alot like a Pike. Just alot bigger and meaner and is more silver in colour.

bullet_evader · 05-05-2005, 12:19 PM

Well, whatever it is called. i am just making the fish from the reference in my openings post

I've done the basic shape, so i can start making details ( like teeth and more detail at some places ). I also need to tweak some parts.

sandman300 · 05-05-2005, 11:45 PM

I only said it was a Musky because the ref pic is the same as the one I had found labeled Muslellunge. I think the Pike is in the same family. Whatever the case I mede one a while ago.
Here is the thread If you want to see.

coming along nicely bullet, nothing to critiq yet

bullet_evader · 10-05-2005, 07:25 PM

Thanks for that picture Sandman!! it can be handy for texturing.

I've allready start texturing my fish, Their are still a lot of errors in the texture, but just wanna show you the start of it. it also lacks detail. so that's where i am going to work on now!

swankymonkey · 10-05-2005, 10:37 PM

Thats a great looking fish! You're doing a fantastic job on the textures so far.
