Good evening all! As I post this it is very late and once again I am depriving myself of sleep so that I may play with this wonderful program. To that end here is my most current work. I just did it tonight. It is a picture of Saouk Iysss (pronounced Sow-OOK Eeess). He is a member of a saurian race know as the Volza. Vicious and cunning they eat anything that is warm-blooded :eek: I had a few ideas I wanted to try out on this so let let me know what you think.

Thanks!

Well done, I like the look of this image. I think that the rendering goes well with the model.

[Mentat7]

LOL! Juandel! Actually that is his tympanic membrane- external ear. But I can see where it might look like a golf ball.... :D

I like it a lot, really great.
excellent image.

On an anatomical note, there is something about the eye brow that doens't seem reptilian. It seems a bit mammalian. But still, maybe he is a cross-bread. Of course, I am no expert there, so I may just be imagining things. :)

Overall, I think it is great stuff. :tu:

[Mentat7]

Nyah...you're not imagining things Kelly. I originally drew the eye socket to look more reptillian but decided to humanize it and make it look more reptillian/humanoid. I think though that I would like to change the eye to look like a reptile eye........hmmm

Very nicely sculpted Mentat!

You really are on your way to becoming a poweruser.

Keep up with this kind of "clean sculpting"!

This is really cool! Nicely done. Looks like an iguana that sat a little too long under some radiation.

Decided it needed a background so here it is...Most of my studies are against neutral backgrounds but I believe that is about to change for the better............. :D

Great modeling, good use of texture, the expression is downright Scary, the background is bringing forward a million details...
I'd say you have a fine image there. :)

I just found this, and I have to say I like the eye...The area of increased specularity, or maybe it's the lighting caught around the eye, is really nice. That skin texture is also perfect. :tu: :tu: :tu: :cool:
Great characterization...You made a lizard with intelligence here!!!
