I can't wait to see how this comes out :3

It's looking great so far! I like the back ridges. I experimented a bit with 3D modeling a few years back, and it was really difficult for me. I think I managed to do a blob once. I was using Blender which is without a doubt the most pain in the butt program I've ever used, partially because it seems to be designed with a 3-button mouse in mind, and because the tutorials were written with PC commands. I don't think there was an undo feature or a normal way to save either.

.....I'm just complaining about programs tonight. Na, most of them I've liked. :)

I got turned into one of those once.








I got better....

D.O.P.R

Looks great so far :). You could try using some procedural textures. They're great for organic models as they don't have any seams. Another option though a little more challenging is to use a UV map. Basicly it unwraps your character like unwrapping the skin of an orange and lays it flat. After that you go into photoshop and paint the skin, and then it'll re-wrap your character.

I'm trying to use UV Mapping..I've done it once before for a model and it was 'OK.'...we'll see how this one turns out haha :)
