Talking July Challenge - Dae - Normal

This month topic is pretty cool, here is the creature I will try and do this month, it is like a cross between a toad and a elephant or something like that.

Thanks Dae for joining!

It looks like such a great design, so great that your BUSTED!!

Hahaha, j/k buddy. Theres no rules against modelling off of something already made. Anyways yea, the only reason i picked up on that, is I almost did it for the critter tournament at SM! I went with a digimon though instead, as I had a horrible start when i tried that thing. I cant wait to see what you do with it!

One thing though, if you are going to use someone else's artwork in the future, please give credit to them . I do realise that your design is unique from the image below.. but I am quite sure it was taken off of this piece. If im wrong please let me know . BTW, i like your design better, mostly the eyes

Post alrighty then

Since they look alike and I dont want to get anybody angry, this is what I will do, I will do another beast of burden. As for the old one it was a combination of three things, two older models I had done and page full of doodles.

This is the beast I shall do more like continue, hopefully it will be ff type of beast, sorry this one has no artwork.

thanks, I still have to model something to control him and I am going to try and texture him, so best him out of the way because I suck at texturing.

Man this is amazing! I think the pecks are a bit sharp on the bottom area, but everything else is rocking! I think he needs a bigger elbow too . One thing i see on this guy, is HUGE hulk like hands! I dont know though, just seems in my mind that it would fit perfectly. BTW, i love his stubby tail .

WHOA.. that rocks!! I have never seen a plugin in maya powerful enough to do that. Is it something in LW or is it you editing it in photoshop? Either way, great job!
