Alrighty, so this is my final project for my first semester (Say WHAAAAT? I'm already done my first semester~) Anyways~ So I took pictures in kinda my important grounds... e_e I kinda forgot to take pictures of the back ground though hahaha...
Alrighty so this is the concept art I was to 'work off of' they gave us the freedom to change it that way we want to... Obviously I took advantage of that...

So I modeled the darn thing and this is my first texture What?!?!

It's blue~! and apparently has no teeth or eyes... or spikes... and the seems you can see...

So I changed the colour up and added my beautiful teeth and horns and extra who-knows-what along with fixing my seems haha~

Ahhh~ my babies first render *tears in eyes and take out the family photo album*

This is what I put him in... now what does that graffiti remind you ooooof~? I have to say e_e the graffiti was harder than some parts because I never did graffiti like writing before haha~

Aaaaand SHAZAM! Rigged, weighted, texture, displacement mapped, bump mapped, spec mapped, lit, and composited (Aaaah composition...)

^_^ I hope I get even better in my next semester >: D

Wow! Excellent work! Did a great job on working out those seams and extras. I'd hate to be in the garbage can he was checking out. (Well, hate to be in a garbage can altogether.) Very good final render. I especially like the highlight achieved on the top of his front claws in the flash light cone.

Thats really awesome.

However why is the thread called dragon. Thats totally not a dragon. Some sort of dragonspawn sure, but not a dragon.

lol, no I was the only person who chose the 'dragon' e_e the other students chose more... 'human' like monsters, haha which gave me a problem when I was rigging, since I was the only one who was using a quadruped guide... (I had no help from the others to see if I was doing it right.. and the teacher was trying to make us all independent) and the weighting ARGH the weighting lol.
