I would say the lion is too front-heavy but that's just because the fur looks solid, can't really do much about that with a sculpt I suppose. Maybe just something to keep in mind.
We submitted it on the workshop last night, here's a link to our collection if you'd like to check out our items: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=142104869
Here's a video with in-game footage: http://youtu.be/VSXdveaNhY0
Yeah, he did a lot of tweaking on the low so everything looks readable from in-game and fits with the existing items. He made the head a little smaller and was very sad about that.
I see what you're saying. We're going to have to play up the bird aspect of the courier a lot in the mesh and texturing. Also, we've talked to the animator about making its motions a lot more birdlike and a lot less catlike, so hopefully this will make it look more like a wild animal that just so happens to have the face of a cat.
Shagbark just got in:
Snowl made it in as well:
Hunters Dallying Llama is pretty cute as well (just not as Chibi eyed).
I really think the community is onto something here with the cuteness of the couriers.
Going kind of slow because Dry is on a long ass vacation in Europe and I don't want to get ahead since we're splitting the work on this, but here's some progress with the courier.
Once I got back, though, there was a lot of progress on this little guy.
Textures are done on these guys, the animator is animating and we're about to start promo shots. On another note, I don't ever want to texture another cat, or at least, not for a month or two geez.
Dry made some stuff at the event as well, which I'm sure he will submit soon.
You totally will see them soon, we're submitting all 4 of them and then jamming them into a collection
Here's some of our latest stuff!

Along with some updates to a baba yaga courier that's being animated right now:
:O I LOVE this! I was actially playing around with ideas for a Babba Yaga courier idea myself (more hut form than human form though) - guess I'll have to go back to the drawing board!
Aw man, sorry to step on your toes! We've had this goin' for a long time, and the animator is finally submitted final stuff, so this might happen soon! If you want to do more of a house courier though, we could team up with that and submit them as a pair or collection! If you wanna chat about it, send a message to me over steam DrySocket
btw, KILLER work on the courier you're making now. Just top notch
Oooh - now THERE's an interesting idea! :poly142: I'll send you a message and we can talk things over.
Thanks for the kind words about my work as well - means a lot
We've been pretty busy this year, making Dota stuff. Here's a selection of some things we've been up to since the last post.
Okay, I think that's it for now.
:O :poly142:

random question - do you make a 3D render of your set and then paint over it for the loading screen or just paint by hand? either way looks so good. That spec set is beastly ;D
I use the hlmv to greenscreen a basic screenshot/collage of screenshots with slightly different angles to get the composition I want, and then just paint over everything. Thanks!
Haha you make it sound super easy, gonna have to look into hlmv myself! Keep up the beautiful work
