Hi this is just the first preliminary image of this beast.



I'd like some help with the right foot. (the beast's left foot.) it looks kind of awkward, not big and strong enough. Or maybe there's something wrong with the entire leg?

I'd also like some suggestions on the outfit and gadgets that he migt have. There will be some kind of a group picture later. With a team of space marines. A big gun would be the obvious choice, but.....it's so obvious, any other ideas.

Hi,

I think the most striking thing when looking at his legs is that the feet (and arms) are pretty much at the same vertical height, but since I get the feeling his right half of the body is closer to the viewer (which is correct if you look at his right shoulder in comparison to his left one) his left arm should be shorter meaning the hand would end higher up, same for his left foot.

Then there are a couple of anatomy issues, his left leg seems to have been broken backwards which for a humanoid is very painful , and his knee on his right leg should be lowered, on his left leg it is not visible enough. And his biceps/triceps area might need some more detail since it now looks a bit too much like a squashed sphere.

The fur looks pretty cool but be careful with the coloring since now when its grayscale you could mistake the darker areas for lack of light or a shadow being dropped which doesnt work as it is now. And overall its too dark colors with too little contrast mainly on his torso and leg areas, which makes it look slightly flat. extent the use of a wider palette and it will get a lot richer.

Also you might want to add more differences in his face since its now completely black in some areas which never appears in nature.

I like his hands though, and his pose. growl!

Keep it up
