Here's my work in progress. I probably won't be working on it again until summer when my schedule clears in a month or 2. I thought I'd maybe get some tips to jog down until then. My plan is to fix the face, add giant horns on his head and refine the wings. Of course give him a toga or whatever you call it. (Rags like sumos or the last boss in street fighter 3 to cover his nuts. user added image

I'll need to figure out how to do that also. I'm not use to doing draperies yet.

Anyhow any suggestions would be nice and maybe some more ideas. user added image

To Stop that 'spreading' on the wing, just add some more geometry (in poly) closer to it to give it a sharper edge or you could go to the subd menu set and apply a full crease on the edges. Rember Subds are a smoothing algorythm, the less geometry you have the smoother the effect, unless of course you do the above

Wow - cool model Anhslaught - very effective anatomy. The one (small) area that I am not sure about is the area between the small toe that sticks inward and the other two toes. It just looks like it needs a bit more of an arch there, if you know what I mean. Excellent work though - I like the way you have resolved the two sets of arms - this will look great animated.

I was playing around with it and found out you can actually convert to SubD w/out merging the verts, which solved the problem.

I know exactly what you're talking about. It's short and looks like a little weewee haha. I need to probably make it longer and give it that arch and extrude the knuckles more so it wouldnt look like it's floating or something. To me right now it looks like it's a useless toe.

Yeah the crease will disappear because when you go back to poly you are intially deleting the subds history.

Glad its sorted out now though..

Cheers
