There is definate improvements in the newer version. The arm looks great, but the tip looks strange. There is a pattern in there that looks like you just plastered on an image and hoped it fit. Lines are running off the edges where they shouldn't. Are you planning to add a lot of transparencies to him? This would explain a few things.

[typhus22]

yeah, i need to go back into the blade part of the arm. for some reason it is rendering really dark, maybe if i tilted it a bit it will make sense. and also there is a pattern in it that i guess isnt showing right in the render. ill post up another image of just the blade and see what u think.

Your constructs are always very imaginative and this one is no exception. He is looking pretty good thus far. I think what is needed is a bit of blending between all the chopped up areas. Right now, everything seems too seperate. I am not sure if I should actually mention these things as you are still working on him. I am guessing this is just your base, if so, it's looking good man. Keep it up:)

oh, and yeah, the tail end needs some love man;)

[typhus22]

Thanks a bunch Fred! well i hope i blended it well and unfortunately i wont be able to make any more changes. so heres my entry. cheers!

Man I love that arm he's sporting, it reminds me of Sasori's pupet tail from Naruto! God stuff man, I'm glad to see you made it to the finish line, congrats!
