Hi guys! This is my first post here on the forum. Character I did last year for study. I'm starting to build my 3D portfolio, critics and suggestions are more than welcome! (Seriously, I need them! Hahaha)

I love the lighting and the colors!  He's such a fun little character  The only thing that bothers me is the eye area.  It feels like it's a bit concave, or squished in/blocky.  I feel like adding some more mass in there would help make the eye feel more like it's protruding.  I know these words are a bit weird, so here's a super quick paintover!  (I have a lotta troubles around eyes and mouths, so I hope it helps!)



The bend on the legs looks a bit iffy, but it's easy to overlook.  Looks awesome!

First, thanks for the comment!

And omg, the depth in the eyes really made a big difference! And I loved the effect. I do not know if I'll be working on this character again anytime soon, but I'm sure I'll fix those eyes. I think my biggest difficulty in modeling these days is exactly the eyes. Such an important part!

Thanks for the suggestion, it really helps me to see these little things that I need to improve!

It looks great. I love the colours and the model as a whole has a lot of charm.

I'd have to agree the eyes do look better more bulbous.

Very strong character! I'd say your hair and texturing probably could use the most work. Hair seems a bit sloppy, and I'd say your texturing could benefit from another detail pass or two
