Legendary Goat man

Hey guys! First time posting. Critique very welcome!
Also first time going through the whole pipeline on a character

I'm trying to force myself to post here more, although it might feel daunting. It would be nice to have some place where I can keep progress shots.
I am currently working on this concept, all credit goes to Evren İnce (artstation)

The plan is sculpting in Zbrush, retopo and uv'ing in maya, texturing in substance and then I will bringing it into UE4.

The high poly sculpt is done, I plan on doing haircards with xgen for the fur and hair (will be my first time any advice would be great!)

I wish I had more time to work on it to iron out some details and lumps but I unfortunately got sick a few days before the deadline. oof

Finished the retopo
Was pretty interesting to retopo a character for the first time. I definitely could've gone lower on the polycount. I learned more as i worked on it.
Realized I shouldve had more loops following the shape of the body better, couldve saved time and polycount
welp, theres always next time! ended with 72k Tris

That shoulder topology needs to be different, especially since it's naked.

It may help that you don't need to connect ALL the loops that get pointed out in the examples. You can make those strips and then connect them later as you feellke it's ready and complete.

Also, the form fot he abdominal muscles is off. What reference were you using?
