ya did id entirely at 3d or followrd a sketch of the character?

I was basing it off Yure's icon. And yes, it's 3D because this is gonna be for a 3D side scroller. Easiest thing to make for my first project in Unreal engine.
I can't actually add whiskers in Sculptris (at least not thin ones)

If it was to be a wolf this would be a raging success and a really adorable wolf at that XD

Oh Sculptris! This is a good start though so don't be too hard on yourself. I sorta struggle to use it. Feels a bit like waving my arms half-blind trying to get the right shape or that I don't have enough control right away! But just keep going at it though, I've seen some really great stuff made in Sculptris and Zbrush. I'm not very experienced with 3D sculpting though. :'D

My only critique/advice(?) is that, if it's based on that user's icon then the eyes could be lower as they're almost parallel to nose! (on that picture at least?) But then things can vary between different styles, andI don't know if you're wanting to follow the sort of style of their icon exactly and stuff.
But this is already pretty awesome.

That link will be used for Yure, this one will be used for a certain husky. It'll need to be repainted anyway since he's grey/red and not blue.
This husky did not win the contest, but is selling me an incredible computer for $10 plus shipping so yea. Without him I don't think I could make this game at all because 4 GB of RAM is not enough to run the Unreal engine xD
