Minor/Major Project: Further Modelling Progress

Bukavac head:
I've started on the bukavac's head, but have realised I will need to add orthographs showing what's going on inside the mouth and how the lips overlap.

Wendigo Body:
It took a little while to attach the ribs to the body, and the sides probably need a little more work to sort out the geometry there. I will be working on the arms and legs next, making the sure the geometry flows correctly to show muscle and sinew.

Wendigo head:
I'm trying to start work around the wendigo's eyes so I can move on to the gums and teeth. Again there is still some geometry that could use a little more smoothing out, especially under the jaw and neck.

Minor/Major Project: Wendigo Head Modelling Progress

Still working out a few things as I go, and have made some progress modelling the bukavac's body, but I like how the head is progressing so far.

Minor/Major Project: Wendigo Modelling Progress

After speaking to Alan on Tuesday, he advised me on a better method of modelling that would allow me to capture the details (wrinkles, skin folds) of the wendigo that involves extruding planes. This method is arguably more time consuming at the moment, but should result in a more accurate model.

 There's been a lot of going back and forth with the face so far, mainly due to some inaccuracies between the front and side views in my orthographs, but I now have the beginnings of a brow and chin.

I've used the same method to create the ribs on the body. They still need some work but overall look better than they did on the first attempt.

Minor/Major Project: Bukavac Development - Faces - Feedback Please!

I want the bukavac to have both lizard and fish-like qualities, with a fearsome face to match its personality. Any comments suggesting combinations, other things to add, or people's chosen favourites from the above would be greatly appreciated!
