This is something I've been working on for the past week for my Advanced Modeling class. It started as something else entirely, and only after coming back to it did I realize that it looked kinda of like a creature thing. I didn't even really like it, and hadn't planned on finishing it before monday when I realized my other idea (that I may finish and submit at some nebulous point in the future), wasn't going to be done by the 12th, when this is due.

Anyway, I'm really surprised I finished this at a quality level I'm actually proud to show off . . . given that its for school and all, and I usually put in the minimal effort for my class work for the sake of saving my wisdom and intelligence, I mean sanity. Maybe.

Modeled primarily with Maya 8.5, with some uvmapping help from 3dsmax.
Sculpt was done in Zbrush 3.1, and textures were created with Xnormal and Photoshop.
