This one looks like fun! Although it's going to be a challenge to not make it look like a cross between Sid the Sloth and Scrat from ICE AGE! hahaha

Great animal! though I admit it's not an easy one ^_^
Can't wait to start working on this one..
Cheers

An original animal

Kowai · 04-04-2007, 04:35 AM

Omg this one will be hard, I hope I can have time to participate! :] I'll actually have to put my school project over this in priority but it'd still be fun if I can work on this too :] Need ideas though..

Sickly · 04-04-2007, 05:16 AM

Looking forward to this one, I've been eagerly watching previous competitions and I'm hoping to debut my own efforts through this month's challenge. Should be a fun month :]

AbhishekKr · 04-04-2007, 05:23 AM

saw this animal before but never paid such an attention to it
it looks very weirdo 'n mixed package hybrid zoozoo

but nice for stylo challenge, nice subject to experiment with

Kowai · 04-04-2007, 07:00 AM

Hmm I'm thinking maybe a war anteater.. Ridden by it's ant masters :]

hihosilver · 04-04-2007, 07:03 AM

Awesome concept. I'm gonna try to take a stab at it, looks like a tough creature to model!

cgCook · 04-04-2007, 07:48 AM

Hi, this is my first post on this forum. I'll try to model some kind of anteater knight and try to use this challenge as an excuse to familiarise myself with Max's hair and fur plugin. The modelling will be done in anim8or simply because this is the only modelling tool I'm comfortable with right now.

Here's what I got so far...still roughing out the basic shape as I go along as you can see

mr_lemon · 04-04-2007, 01:36 PM

ugh...not so easy...but the characterization should come out funny and weird

!!!

cgCook that's a good start !
