This is my first take on creating a Mountain Troll
You can check out the full model in sketchfab: https://skfb.ly/oEPOn
Note: Any Comment about improving the 3D model, texture, or anything that can improve the model is very much appreciated.
Thank you!
Hey that’s cool !
Where does the design comes from ? is it your own ?
There are different ways to improve the model, it’s even possible to make it better without even doing much to the character !
I think the whole character would work better with a pose and context.
Is this mountain troll supposed to be dangerous , mean, friendly ? The actual pose make it quite inoffensive and kinda cute. The high camera make it also look quite small.
But a nice pose, putted in a mountain environment, with more clues about who is that mountain troll and you’ll get a much more convincing character !
A lot of stuff goes into how do we “sell” our stuff to an audience, presentation is a big part of making things looks cool.
Model is cool but something is lacking isn’t it ? :
Maybe a good pose and better lighting :
Some better camera angles :
Add a background and then it starts to tell a story :
Hopes that helps !
Ah Hi, Sozap, Thank you for the reply;
The design is inspired by the Lord of the rings Mountain Troll.
I think the whole character has a lot more work to be done,
and this is my first take on creating a mountain troll.
I’m still learning to rig, animate, and create better 3d Models;
I will try to do a better job on my second take on this
in the future.
Thank you again for the info, it is much appreciated.
Ok !
Your model is kind of stylised / cartoony , is it intentional or you wanted to make something more realistic ?
Yes the model can be improved, but presentation helps a lot !
An average or poor model can become quite cool when presented well.
On the opposite even the coolest model can turn to look cheap with bad lighting , wrong camera …
But maybe you’re more into modeling and texturing at the moment and don’t want to feel overwhelmed by new stuff !
Keep up the good work, practice makes perfect !
Lol I just re-read the title ! Ok the stylized part is intentional 
Maybe on the next iteration I’ll make comments on the modeling and texturing !
