What are you working on RIGHT NOW - T1/2 Dromed Edition

Texturing and art style look spot-on, but the proportions are off, IMO. Notice how huge the legs are and how small the torso seems to be in comparison.

You are right Judith. I'm new in 3ds max :D i will try to change the proportions. Thanks.

Still, that's pretty damn impressive for a new 3dsmax user. Do the image search for "satyr", that should help you with proportions.

I wish i could build something like this in 3ds Max by myself. But i paid money to get this Satyr mesh. I've changed the texture a bit and i've added a rig to the character so that i can animate him. As i said i'm complete new in 3ds max. I've played with animation and things...

Always go back to the LGS original. Look especially at ratio of femur (thigh) to tibia (shin) to metatarsals (lower leg). Consider smaller horns, more like the original LGS work as well.

Also consider (http://madsculptor.blogspot.com/2011/01/satyr-legs-day-60.html) Madsculptor's Satyr for inspiration. I think his shortening of the tibia makes sense, is close to what LGS did, and looks right. See also (http://madsculptor.blogspot.com/2011/01/satyr-detailed-day-7-contains-male.html), (http://madsculptor.blogspot.com/2011/01/satyr-painting.html), and (http://madsculptor.blogspot.com/2011/01/satyr-hair.html)

Oh, then don't mind me. Since you're not character modeler, there's not much you can do about it. I've seen a few concept arts with such proportions, so it's not exactly incorrect. Just more human proportions look a bit more "natural", you can see that with minotaurs as well. That LGS model also has bigger legs, whether it was due to polygon limit or something else, it's hard to say.

Trickster mesh is awesome. Only issue I have with it is the tail. The tail's a bit weird.
