Decided to go and try to and come up with my own look with armour instead of just copying my character should be a lot of fun creating new armour,

wow - cool model Kurt - I really like his outfit and those big boots. I am just not sure about the horns - not necessarily that you have to get rid of them - they just seem a bit out of place out the moment.

its looking good but i dont think you have any chance to win this constest because i saw the work of some people on cgtalk.com, im sure you did too, and it looked a lot more realistics and their model were a lot more detailled than yours. also i dont realy like that you model is very small and has ultra big boots.c'mon dude im pretty sure you can do better than this!
