I don’t really like the stripe on the back, but otherwise it looks pretty damn cool!
correction, the stripe is fine (maybe a little darker and then have the poof ball tail be lighter), but the collarbone stripe looks a little goofy. Also, the lights on his ears and left “hand” should be darker and the transition should be more graduated, they look more like bald patches.
one more thing, from the front it looks like he has droopy breasts, I think you might want to look at that shadow line again. same with the shoulder plates.
good job otherwise, I really like the eyes, the feet, and the legs. the head is just spectacular.
aaahh! one more thing, this time about the model. From the side view, it looks like Turner has had an injury on his achilles tendon. You (whoever is working on the models, probably David) should probably extend it further towards the joint.

Aside from adding fur effects and clothes, his model is going to remain essentially the same. There are good reasons for all of our design decisions. Please rest assured that we know what we are doing
It looks really cool, and I think that collarbone might actually be the collarbone interacting with the fur. The poof tail should probably be a little rounder and furrier, and maybe a tiny bit bigger. Will the fur just be a bump map, or will it be particles that blown by the wind, droop from water, get messed up after a fight or injury, and maybe even stand up on the back of his neck when a fight starts? That would be really cool.
Pretteh!
*can’t wait for furshader and other effects*
A thing of beauty. Well done.
Thats awesome! o.o I can wait to see the joints and stuff work.
I too initially thought that the torso texturing looked like it had been twisted around 180° (after all, most fuzzy animals like that have more of a lighter stripe on their stomachs than on their backs), however, I learned to trust David’s instincts _long_ ago. Remember, there’s going to be fur effects and _clothes_ on top of this as well, so it’s not going to be what we’re seeing right now.
I like the more realistic animal feet on this model. An _excellent_ design!
Turner? Is that you?
Wow!
We’re not talking rabbit-headed humanoids anymore, this is a whole new species. What men would have become if they had evolved alongside wolves
I’m so glad you actually gave Turner a real nose! Also, his eyes look more life-like, when before they looked like rabbit marbles
Excellent work… is his mouth always gonna be open like that?
