Spike Final

4 loves
This is Spike, a character from the old My Little Pony cartoon.

This model definitely pushed my limits. It still has a lot of flaws, but sometimes you just have to say it's done and move on! He's cute, anyways.

My main reference photo is at the bottom, if you don't know the character.

I credit the shark course, Kent's various amazing videos that cover everything from adding texture detail to compositing, and mesh bootcamp for like 90% of this project, and the rest was guessing.

Edit: I'm adding a render with a quick ground made from some Polyhaven assets, so he's not floating anymore.

  • You did such a great job recreating them! I love the background you put them on too.

  • Wow! That new render! Sells the character so much better... he looks alive now. Good on you for doing it again

  • Nice model. The top render could be improved a lot if you added a ground with some foreground plants and rocks, leaving the current bg as a kind of fake depth of focus

    Good one Comn. I think the only feedback would be to try and at least put a ground plane, just so the character is not floating. It will catch nice shadows and make him grounded. Not a big deal but it can make a difference. 🤘🏼
