thanks a lot for the positive comments! i really appreciate it.
- i've been working with photoshop and flash for about 4 years, i started 3d about 8 months ago with 3ds max and then did a maya course for 3 months which ended in dec. I've been sketching etc forever user added image

Since i've taken a course in maya and have been around the forum for one competition i guess this means i'll enter as a normal member...

thanks Kevin and Simply_Mayan!

I've got to take a day or two off to do some stuff i've been avoiding and then i'll finish off his helm and armour and build some teeth. then simple rig so he can be posed and into the keep scene. that's the plan user added image

wait and see how the cloth explodes when he moves...
- Gary1953 - here's the dragon i would model if i had time - maybe a future project... i think his wings have to be a little bigger to look like he could fly tho...
