This week I made some changes to the body of my tiger model. Added in a few edge loops to the tiger's belly and pulled some vertices on both the arm and legs of my tiger to create flap and crease between the armpits and thighs. The flap and creasing on the hind leg was a bit tricky because it required more edge loops and geometry to create the indentation on the thigh and curves. I've also added claws to the tiger model and made them curved. Other things that I've done was rearrange some of the vertices and edge loops on the face, mouth, and eyes. I started on the head crest for the frontal skull of my tiger and it seems tricky to get the shape right since it might require a lot of edge loops but its a good thing since I won't connect the head and body together but keep them both as separate objects. At the moment I'm still currently deciding which parts of the head crest to extrude from and connect to in order to form the outer parts of the crest.
I decided to extrude a long outward geometry piece for the side of the head crest and connect the side head piece to the lower jaw instead of extruding the entire crest on the side of the face. This extruding method worked a bit easier than extruding the entire side of the face altogether from my last experience. I also managed to manipulate the side head crest and spikes better this way.The hard part may be UVing the head crest but I think I'd just break it apart section but section to UV them easier.
