Cute Monster Modeling

After 9 hours a modelling, making it a grand total of 15 hours moving vertices, here is the completed model.

Smoothed and Unsmoothed (about 2200 vertices for unsmoothed)

Foolishly I neglected to to draw the hand in the orthographic drawings. This was swiftly remedied by some observation of my own hands and some quick sketches.

 

I also had some fun colouring in the orthographic drawings to give me an idea of the colouring of the character for when I reach the texturing stage.

Cute Monster Concept

So my newest project is to styalize a monster concept into a cute monster. Unfortunately I can't post the original monster concept I am working from, as I dont know who the artist is, and therefore can't credit them.

And then refining the concept by taking the cutest character and giving it big eyes. He does look quite sad, but I guess that is quite fitting for a monster trying his hardest to be scary and just ending up being cute

Now its time for Maya!
