great, love it
reminds me of our school pet (know only as toad)
"hes not fat, just......buoyant"
I was "given away to a toad enthusiast" (probably meaning he died)

I do think i should be shinier

ha ha - thanks elephantic. i like to describe myself as 'buoyant' too.

yeah - i agree - i need to do a bit more work on his spec maps. I'm also not too happy with his fingers, which i think need more work. i'll proabably go back to this at some point.

The only word I can think of is "Wow"!

yea this is some really good work. at first I couldn't believe the effort put in for the UV mapping(especially in between those folds) but since you mentioned you used Zbrush I assume it was much easier.

actually it was uv mapped with roadkill.

also, remember the base model looks a lot different to this, so it's easier to do. user added image

as far as i know, zbrush only does stacked uvs which is no good for painting in photoshop. i did use it for painting the seams, tho i don't know if i did it the best way.

Arran! (long time, shipmate)! VERY nice job! I have Z-Brush but wouldn't even know where to begin!

Is there ANY chance of seeing that frog...jump? :-)

ha ha - i wish - he might be a bit fat for that.

how are the robots and zeppelins? would be good to see what you've been up to. and you definitely have to get into zbrush - it's a lot of fun! user added image
