I'm in!!

i decided to make a Nubian Ibex. It kinda looks like a crossbreed between a goat and a gazelle :D

finally i got started.. just blocking out the basic shape mostly right now.

time for yet another update!

modelled ears and attached them to the head. They still need some tweaking but hey! Rome wasnt build in 1 day :D

Nice start. And interesting pick of an animal, this should be fun to model, love the long horns. Wicked! Great choice! :attn:

Looks amazing, Kim .. This is definately the best you have come up with to date !

Cali: thanks! doing what i can to make this one my absolute best ever :)

Tiago2: i still havent decided if i should do the extremely large horns or just the short ones i've build for now. but yeah. a wicked creature indeed :D

Small update:

trying to get the skin to fit around the base of the horns.. my base mesh is a mess full of tri's, quads and 5+ sided polys right now. Will be cleaned ofcourse :)

wow! Excellent!

Great start Rotbol. Definately think you should go for the large horns. They will look really cool winding around the head, as in your reference picture.

BIG HORNS !!! GO GO !!!

good progress, you'll have this finished in no time :)

ok big horns it is!

didnt get much done today.. but at least i made some bigger horns. no details yet though.

Looks good. The horns are definately better. And I really like the way you have done the ear.

another update.

I've started adding details to the horns. I'm doing it on each horn seperately to ensure asymmetri.
