yeehaw... another cool model from andvari. you are not only good in modeling and skinning, u seem to be pretty fast also.

i second that comment from steempipe... the horse looks a bit pissed off, but maybe he just didn't get any hay this morning.

some very nice reference-pics u got there Dan Silverman.

cheerio

just looks great!

I just saved those great pics so that they'll help me when I need horses in my game!

Very good model.

I agree that the work is great. I also agree that the legs and hooves need a bit of work. The legs look heavy, giving a draft horse appearance. Perhaps that is the look you want, but if not, they should be thinner. The hooves look like a mad farrier ground the toes off. Check the reference photos. But still.... very nice!!
Regards,

First of all, thanks everyone for the feedback


Dan: Thanks a lot for the reference pictures and the constructive criticisms, the front shot of the horse legs was really helpful.

Dennis: It takes me about 3-4 days to have a character fully textured and rigged

just made a gallop animation for the horse

Ohhhh so smooth.. I could watch it for hours!

At such a speed, the ears should turn a bit backwards and the head is too high in the air. Usually the back is moving a bit more up and down. The tact doesn´t seem right either...

But the animation is amazing.
