WIP: First Monster Model
 

Hey all! Wow, it's been FOREVER since I posted on here (SERIOUSLY). I have been working on this model in 3Ds MAX for some time now, and thought I would post on here for some comments/crits! I hope you all don't mind me posting a model from 3Ds MAX on here, yet the SimplyMAX forum has been dead-quiet for months now, so feedback there is...well...almost none. :zzz:

So I thought I would post here for comments/crits! Feel free to leave any feedback!

Here is the concept sketch:

Here is the prior stages of it:

And here it is NOW:

As of now, I still need to finish the body, as well as do the interior of the mouth and teeth, as well as the wings of the demon / gargoyle. Comments and crits welcome though! ;)

Looks pretty nice but you have some edge loops which are unnecessary although they seem to be placed correctly.

nice start mate. At the moment the body looks a little too symmetrical and uniform, but I'm sure it's still early days.

good to see you on simply maya:beer:

Yeah, as arran said, the body seems a bit to statuesque. But, it looks good otherwise. And if you were going for a statue look, considering it could be a Gargoyle, then nm. In any case, it's looking great thus far, it could use just a bit more detail. Can't wait to see the progress!

Thanks all for the comments, and thanks arran for the welcome, bud! :beer: I was on here quite awhile back, yet I have been busy with life and whatnot and have not had the opportunity to post anything on here for quite some time. Especially with the fact that I am still trying to graduate and am looking for jobs. :eek:

Yet I am glad to finally be back on the SimplyMaya forums! :attn:

Anyway, thanks for the advice, ya'll. I want to post what else I have done with the model since then. I know I need to tweek a few things, yet I will fix that as I continue to build up the model.

Here is the update on my model. Added the arms, legs, butt, etc... yet I still need to fix the hip area, the thighs a little, finish and tweek the arms, add the hands and feet, as well as add the tail and wings....
