And now my masterpiece is finally complete. I present to you Celestyx! (Now with posey-ness!)   I have yet to put a bone structure in it, so I can't move it around just yet. However, when I do, it's going to be epic! And here's a render I did just to play around with lighting.  Now eventually I'll figure out how to do texture mapping in Blender so I can add decals.  |

Oh nice, it looks much better with poseyness! Not that it looked bad before, more that it gives it an appropriately swooshy-dynamic look like an eastern dragon should have. Maybe a little darker red, though?
If Blender can readily cel shade, that might make for some cool renders too. I've never used it, though.

Yeah, Blender does have cel shading, but I'm not sure how it works. lexicus used cel shading in the LZ pics he made using Blender.

Woah, now that's a concept! I love the "whiskers", though I'm not sure how that'd work out in a battle. D: I like the color scheme, though it seems a little bit on the bright side(maybe it's just my moniter?) to me. All in all, I do like it very much.
If I were better with mecha and 3D art, I'd have loved to give a more helpful comment. >< My apologies.

It's alright, any and all comments are fine with me! ^^ (Even flames 'cause I laugh at those, but I never got one! *goes off topic*). But anyways, the whiskers are just decoration mostly, but they can be folded back and out of the way. The colors are indeed bright because I love bright colors and can't help myself. >_<

Did you ever think of pulling the whiskers back, rather than curving out forward? That's the only thing really bothering me about the in-action picture.

They're curved out there because I wanted to show them off. Plus I can sorta argue that Celestyx isn't going that fast, just kinda crusin' so it doesn't need to be all streamlined and stuff. |

Well, it looks more like he's in "come to a sudden stop" mode, was all. *shrug*
