i don't have a lot of eperience in this field but i started to model this minotaur .i still have to modify his abdomen because it doesn't look very good but the rest for me looks just fine .
as for the texturing, it's a tricky one.
so what do you think ?

This is quite a nice model ,however it does seem to need some more volume in the z direction at the moment in my opinion it looks a little like he has run into a brick wall.

well you were right . so i gave it a little fix
but i'd like to keep him a little more flat.
the arms are also out of proportion but that is itended.

i like this model a lot - a minotaur is an excellent choice for a model - but as jsprogg said - he's looking far too flat - why do you want to keep jim like that - is there a specific reason - or you just like the look?

i want to finish it but i don't really know what to do about the texturing.neither human skin nor fur look good on it.
this caracter is a big step for me because this is my second caracter after a really simple one.
and about the animation; i actually worked as an animator in a respectable studio but my animations kind of suck.

here is my other caracter :

I really like your minotaur!
Actually the next thing I was thinking of doing was a minotaur as well.. more of a cartoon type one though.. user added image

but now that I've seen yours, I might want to do something similar too user added image

well for the texturing.. maybe you should post some examples of your thoughts even if it doesn't look good and probably you'll get some comments that'll help you user added image

as far as the minotaur goes, you need to shrink the insides. he's got a full rib cage of muscles, but at the same time he's ignored anything besides that. his breadth should continue on as any full fledged applicant should, but you want to breed those that contain intelligence as opposed to reaction. any man that challenges his potentials with brute force may be dismissed because of lack of foresight. it takes a mix of strength, intelligence, , obedience, and wisdom to continue on.

oh and deary me ignore these comments because i've been weighing in the drunk, tolerant, and weary... user added image

I think you should give him some more shoulder, and maybe a hunched-back... I don't know, but I think it'd be a cool deal! I really like what you've done with him so far! KUTGW!!
