modeling a male human torso, how?

(1/3) > >>

B3dman:
i am trying to model a male torso to create a centaur i would like to know if there is a good tutorial for this.
here is the one i have made before.

RnDr FOX:
you may not want to do this but I would go to makehuman (FREE!!!) model a human male then export it to anim8or and delete the parts of the model you dont want. Good luck with the centaur. ;D

B3dman:
where can i get makehuman? that sound like an interesting program.

hihosilver:
RnDr FOX:  I have to say I COMPLETELY DISAGREE with your statement.  In my opinion makehuman is cheating.  At this stage he should be worried about improving his modeling skills and learning about things such as edge looping, not having a program do it for him.  I feel it's cheating, as the point of 3d art is to create your own art, not have a program do it for you.
I'm sorry but I do not support makehuman at all.  It's a bit like when people make art out of poser models then try to claim it as theirs.

As for a tutorial, the Joan of Arc tutorial is one of the most famous.  It's not particularly an anim8or tutorial, but everything they can do can be translated to anim8or, you just need to know your way slightly around the program.  You can always ask for help with specific questions (first trying to figure it out yourself of course).  Then you could find a horse tutorial, and only model the lower body, then merge the two objects with the knowledge you then have!

RnDr FOX:
Sorry if I affended you, but now that i think of it, it is cheating in a way. Dont get me wrong makehuman is a nice program but silver is right make your torso by yourself. It will help you in the long run!!! As for me I need to look into this Joan of Arc tutorial and you should too.
