#112851 Making Raikou, here is progress so far.
The front legs are a bit goofy at the moment so give criticism on everything but them.
Is this 'minecrafty' enough or should I make it more 'cubey', I notice that a lot of the old square pokemon have been replaced with higher poly versions so I personally don't see my Raikou model as a hugely different. However I would like to hear some other opinions on the matter.
Thanks all :-)

EDIT- Thanks for advising me on texturing but don't do it anymore. I am already well informed thanks to Lupo. i.e stop saying I cant use official textures, I got that the first time.

Im not a great at texturing I usually unwrap my models then send them of for others to texture. However I figure I can probably get the 'official' texture for Raikou and use elements from that i.e Colours, eyes, patterns.

no, that would be stealing. everything has to be done by you. well, you could get someone else to texture it you just can't use official models/textures.
