Heres a rough scult of a lizard breed i used to own but i just thought it would be interesting to try somethign like this out. I still need to divide and increase detail but any comments/hints would be very helpful on furthur work.
Here is it so far

The model looks like adult proportions. The image is an extremely young guy (they are terminally cute at that age aren’t they?). Regardless of what age your going for tho I would spend more time on the block out and proportions stage before getting into the skin folds etc. I did a rhinoceros iguana in silo that is my best 3d work so far, and it was a challenge getting the feet to be convincing. Is this a zsphere mesh?

Thanks man and yeah i made from a zsphere mesh.
Heres an update of the model but im a little stuck on where to go for body shape it still doesnt seem right, any advice
and the real photo is what i hope to achive im going for adult body.

I’d say it needs more meat. It’s a thin creature, but yours has hardly any stomach at all. Also, the spine should perhaps be more developed.
Ok ive pretty much got the base of the body down but i need to learn how to use mesh insert so i can get all the spikes in if anyone knows how that would be great or if you have any good tut links.
Have you considered just using projection master or masks?
Ok heres the model with spines but i still need to make the skin wrinkly and scaly as well as add eyes and claws. Sorry its taken me so long to update but i’ve been busy with school.

Heres it again with abit of scales going on though i dont like them that much, i got the claws and eyes in as well as some wrinkles.

Ive done some re-working of some shapes but im almost ready to texture.

Here is the finished product … sort of any critique would be great but this is as far as iv’e gotten with the texture.

Yeah! He’s cool. The texture looks good so far minus the pattern along the back. You knew that though. wtg
