All I did before was some low poly thingys, I'm trying to improve my skills on organic high poly modelling. And I need a portfolio pretty soon for my internship this summer

Crits are welcome !

I've progressed on the body

That is SICK!!! like, you can tell he's a blacksmith, but its a very original design. lots of personality here. nice work!!!

You got a smile out of me that looks cool to me.

Don't forget to give much needed love to them hands and feet, i think we all have areas we dislike

but thankfully if you do those right one time with a decent res for both high and low you never have to do it again.

Heeey. This is pretty sweet man. For your first character? Impressed. I've yet to do a character and I think you just inspired me to give it a go. Keep polishing this guy. Looking forward to seeing your solution for the beard.

Looking cool! Keep going!

WIP of the day, still got to make his belt, I think that he won't have hair, he looks better bald

I'd recommend giving him a hammer as well as the up and coming belt to better get across the 'blacksmith' . Maybe a thick, heavy apron would amplify that to.
