Kurts Oliphant tutorial

I finally finished it, after all the trouble I had met. my file was corrupted and had to begin from the begining cause I didn't like the mesh hehe and i tried to keep with kurts mesh and spent loads of time trying to figure the oliphant like the one kurt has in part 18 and all the stuff he added between sections. had the proportions abit like squashed abit (didnt get the plain right) this is version 2 of my oliphant after the corruption. Thanks for all the ppl who supported me on msn! Comments are all welcome.

I'll post the modeling stages on my site soon for those who aren't on my msn list. after the corruption i saved 21 different files so i don't loose him again. final render i ws goign to do like the one on part 18 but then later i was thniking that my normal clay renders are now sort of my trademark so i rendered him as usual, except for the gray that is a gray plane facing the camera, i found it it suits more my render.

Thanks Kurt for the tutorial, It was Great!

website needs work on to make it easier to navigate and some other issues with it ...


sorry just some advice. ..use to make webpages for company ..one thing major is font size ..remember you are not looking at it ..other people are ..usually older an wiser and smaller print is not the best ...trust me. ..one thing is that there are more but wont get into that ...

but the modeling is excellant

Nice job but a word of advice....if it's a true portfolio site, don't include models that are based on tutorials.
