I have been taking a 3D Creature Sculpting class on cgsociety.org. It is an 8 week class and this was our first character. The entirety from concept to completion was about four weeks a few nights a week after work.
This is my interpretation of the Yeti.
I wanted him to feel as though he is self aware, not just another animal. I also wanted him to feel like an Elder Yeti of a kind of animal pack or clan. Through evolution the Yeti species began to have hair that changes from white when they are young , to an orange color as they age. This allows them to be hunted more easily by predators as to keep their numbers low so they can stay a secluded race... However the Yeti even with age is still good at hunting and hiding. I wouldn't want to run into the young or the old of this Legendary race......
I also posted the Zbrush sculpt by itself as well.
