Somthing I made up in 3dsmax...I know its rather basic...but its what I needed
Heres some images...
The normal torque player comes up to about the top of the legs.
So...any comments on it so far?(just a note, this is Far from finished)
I myself think the legs suck...

@Greg yeah...at first that was more of the plan, but I wanted it to have more of a "solid" look to it.@Jim Yea, there in Tons of games/movies often called earth elementals or somthing like that
Anyway, thanks for the comments

-Legs need knees unless this thing is stationary
-Too smooth, looks like this one has been sitting in the river too long
-Monster's torso looks like a snowman (really badly too)
-Legs are bad but hands are worse, they should be jagged instruments of doom not the ends of Q-Tips
I would like to see this much further along.

Definately looks solid ... as in it has no knees. 0_o And the poor thing will never be able to relax its arms considering where the only thing passing for an "elbow" is located. This thing is far too far away from completion to give you good answers for, but:-Legs need knees unless this thing is stationary

Are you going to put any texture on it? A nice bump map with a texture could really break up the smoothness of the model.-Keith

You could probably lower the poly count alot, ecspecially where the rocks meet. I would suggest adding some "extra" joints in as well.

Torque Owner Greg Gardinier
...I think that would help the overall look of the thing.
