Original post:

I want to learn more Blender (hair system, cloth, dynamics, rigging and animation) and finally stop avoiding Substance.

For this I picked this amazing concept:

I want to post the progress this time, maybe someone will learn from it or help me get through

Started with the blocking, to find right placement for everything (not finished)

I will then proceed with sculpting.

Wish me luck!

Small update, as I had a couple of minutes to work on it today. Yey!

I was trying to get all the shapes, the right placement of everything. I also wanted to test how I would make the scales

LOL, It looks like it has a ‘Trailer Hitch Receiver’ for its crotch, I like it.

Great work so far.
Though I think the scales look a bit too uniform in length when compared to the concept art.
Keep it up

[Reanimathor (Pawel Swierczynski)]

Haha, thank you:)

The scales are too uniform, I agree. I’ve made a set of variations, but apparently they are still too similar.

Another update:

[domosk (Erevanayen)]

Maybe try adding length variations. That’s what I see in the concept art. Or it could be caused bu their placement. Some rows closer together and some more distant. That could help as well.

Ok, I think I will end the blocking/sculpting phase here and start retopo.
