This is something I just painted for my dad as a birthday present. He's very much a wildlife lover, and I thought I'd do a painting of one of his favorite animals. This painting is based on the photographic image found below. Unfortunately, I am not sure who the original photographer was, so I'm unable to credit them for this wonderful stoic imagery. I painted this entirely in photoshop working with this image as reference only. If you look closely you can definitely tell it's not an exact replica, nor was it ever meant to be. This was quite a joy to paint. I hope you enjoy the result!

Here are some model turns of the goblin character I'd done some concepts for earlier this year. Currently, I'm in the process of rigging this character in Maya so I can pose him in something other than the pose he was built in. He was a lot of fun to do. Below I've included some turns showing the wireframe as well as the solid model with no textures applied. I also included the 1K map I painted to texture the character with. I deviated a bit from the concept, adding some more detail such as the swirls that appear on his pauldrons.
