Hey /3dcg/ I have this model of a raptor, it is my first model made in maya (Blender for posing, rigging) and I am wodering, what can I do to improve it? (besides textures)

But, sculpt what? Like what changes should be made?

show us the wireframe so we can see the topology

Well you see Jonathan, the problem is is that it's fucking shit. You must have used smoothing groups to fuck up the shading that badly on it.
Also it's far too shiny and smooth, like a metal statue of a dinosaur rather than a real one, which has scales.

As was suggested, either sculpt details or get normal mapping on that thing for scales

>implying smoothing groups are inherently bad for shading

Do you even know what you're talking about?

Look at OP's model then retard.
See how just under the nostrils, the mesh has seperated and is completely black?
Looks like shit.
Check out the area around the eyeball. See all those triangles?
Looks like shit.

I never said they're inherently bad for shading, dipshit, don't put words in my mouth.
I said in this particular instance they look like shit.
Lurk more retard.

You're fighting a losing battle.

and just like /ic/ insecure autists with big dreams who have to project their own shortcomings and self-hatred onto clueless visitors and noobs with infantile insults like this
OP was only looking for honest criticism and your obnoxious responses only makes you look like a fag and really sad, though I'm sure you've got a 15 inch cock and everything figured out since that's why you're compelled to do such quality posting

Those issues have nothing to do with normals; You aren't going to harden normals around the eye. That's a problem with the geometry.

Let me guess you're so overwhelmed by internet anonymity your monkeybrain can't handle the situation without typing fuck and retard every two seconds and posting asinine meme pictures?
your post was literally the personification of a faggot so I know this is hopeless but let me say it once more, this is a 3dcg board, OP posted, you made sad posts and then posted dodger which just made it even sadder, do grow up or find another site where you can flex your inspired vocabulary you literal meme fucking child

ah jesus christ, dude if anything you're funny in a sad way, I actually did get worked up imagining what an imbecile you are when trying to explain it to you, but your last comment alone was hysterical in how pathetic it was
No one fucking cares, you're just a literal child and as I thought explaining it to you did nothing, and yeah good memespout you're really "4chan" bruh

If you're really looking for advice, I do have a couple of suggestions as well as gripes with this model.
>There are smoothing errors, I've puushed them.
>As >>479356 suggested, you should sculpt details into the raptor. It's too flat in some areas, and too smooth in others.
>I don't think this has to be suggested, but eyes.
>The raptor is disproportional, the legs are far too stubby, and the head's too big for the body. This was probably from a reference, I'm sure.
>Not important, but uou probably should have used better lighting for this, even though it did expose some of the flaws. It's hard for me to see where it's lacking.
