Mongoose_cute but vicious

[dkantola]

Hey, new to 3dtotal but had a friend send me the link to the cute but vicious sculpt, and fully wanted to have a go at it hope thats ok!

so I have a quick sketch, just need to take a photo of it to post it when i can, but my concept is pretty much a cute innocent looking mongoose, after tearing apart a cobra. Mongoose basemesh was made with zspheres, because i'm assuming typollogy doesn't matter with this, and the cobra I started from a sphere. Planning on useing dynamesh in zbrush later on

If typology does matter, please let me know?

Thanks!!

so neither are posed at the moment, just working on roughing out anatomy and rough scales, the hands and feet of the mongoose still haven't really been worked on, and most of the anatomy will be toned down before sculpting some fur. I think i made the scales a little to small along the part that flares out, so will probably re-do those before I pose it and finish each scale

Eh, I think they meant that the same character/creature should be cute and vicious at the same time, not that you should have one of each

[dkantola]

That is what i'm going for, hopefully later on it will show more of both sides mongooses aren't just cute!

I believe the plural of mongoose is mongeese.

so just a little update, still need to finish the scales, add teeth and nails, and then ill start adding the intestines and destruction of the snake

i ended up reading that story, i liked it, sounded a bit familiar but I don't think i've heard it before
