Centuar Pegasus - Concept

d_woo77

I'm working on a character concept design which I hope will develop into a 3D model. Currently, I am in the preliminary concept phase. If I can figure out the anatomy, I hope to then add some cultural details that will define this animal as a character. Feedback would be greatly appreciated as I need help developing this thing. (Honestly, I think I bit off more than I can chew, but despite the complexity, I suppose this is as good a challenge as any to learn this discipline).
I plan to make a base model in 3ds Max and then begin sculpting in ZBrush. That is, if I haven't completely forgotten how to use it. Its been a while since I've worked in ZBrush. I hope this personal project will help me get back on track.

I really like this idea, I keep thinking it would be cool if you threw a unicorn horn in there or something, expecially with your keeping of the horse head. One thing that I noticed is your bone plan, you have the back flat. I would model the base with the creature standing up completley. If you model the base at that angle, whem you rig it and stand it up laiter you will get some major pinching in the back and pulling in the front. At least that's what I would expect. Keep it up, I lookw forward to seeing how it comes out.
