Description
Continuing on from Aku Au and Uka Uka, I finally got the confidence to do my favourite Crash Bandicoot character next - Dingodile!
And this one certainly provided a much bigger challenge than the previous two. It really put what 3D modeling skills I have to the test. For once, I never found a Dingodile reference image that has him sketched in front view. He's always in a view angle in the middle between front view and side view. That makes it harder for me to model and get the look right. I also had to take into account my own limitations, outside of skill (no drawing tablet, low-end PC, etc.)

As with Uka Uka, I've deviated a bit from his standard appearance and made him with crocodillian feet, but I think it provides a better balance between his two species. Plus I feel like he already has too much brown on him so the little bit green added to him would only improve the aestetic. That's not to say I don't like his classic look, I just think he looks cooler like this.

I'm happy with the result, hope I did him justice. Next I might try to make Tiny
Made in Blender 3D 2.78b (work time ~2 weeks)
Reference images used, original CB Warped concept art by Charles Zembillas as well as a reference drawing by residentlilly

Update: a friend said the image was a bit dim, so I brightened it up a bit.
