Shark Fin Soup

Hello Everybody,

My newest creation is a model I've been working on for the past week. Another wonderful concept by Megan Dong, Kahn the Tiger Shark. I've been planning on modeling some sort of aquatic life for a while. She had surprised me with this guy and it's been fun modeling him. I had Megan direct the style and I believe the collaboration was a great success. I'm just about finished with the modeling part, time to start unwrapping and texturing. If you want to check out the painted illustration, go to Megan's blog. I hope you like and I'll have a new post fairly soon.

Woww Great job!!! Obviously, it's made neatly with well understanding of modeling. Cool design from Megan plus your well-produced 3d model with all little details...very impressive. Good team work:D

Waiting to see more of it:)

Megan said...

He looks awesome in 3D. Thanks for investing the time you did into making sure the details were perfect, it shows. Can't wait to see him all textured up ;)

Hey Guys,

Thank you so much for your feedback. It's a lot more than I expected. You really have to give Megan at least half of the credit for all the help she gave me. I will hopefully have him textured up in the next couple weeks. And hopefully Joy Johnson (expert Rigger) will rig him for me. I will have a new post very soon. Thanks again and Brando, I don't mind.
