Well, I mean, you know ... critters are organic.

However M´s guidelines do allow for robotic creatures, so keep on with your dragon-fly mate. user added image

hehehe - I love his face user added image ! You might need to work on the width of his forearms and lower legs... they seem to me to be a bit to skinny for the shape of his torso.

Hey, mumbo.. awesome stuff so far user added image. Just yea the front of his body is a bit too "brickish".. you may want to make it go in more of a V shape for his body. And then you have the arms and legs, like jb said, they need more style (thicker and more like a forearm). One other thing.. you may want to add some more definition to his stomache area.. but your model is definately taking shape!

Tariqrf.. this is coming along great! This challenge does allow robotic critters.. as even though critters are supposively organic I consider robotic machines that are small "critters".. user added image. As for your model.. its coming along great, just its quite repetative. Is this the general shape that the mesh is going to be? I think its a wonderful start and already looks great..just it could use some more tubes and maybe hydrolics under the wings and stuff user added image. Keep it up to both of ya!
