Ok, so I recently downloaded the demo for this game, and know I will definatly get it as soon as I get a rig that runs it propaly. Anyway,
I have a character in mind, my personal character I always use for everything, so naturally I use him for champions online. Theres a problem though, its a bit rubbish.
Here is the character as it's suppose to look, modeled and rigged entirely by me. Needs to be tweaked preportions wise, but a well rounded look at how it's ment to look.

And here is the Champions one.:(

I use pouches to compensate for the fact I caun't have goggles on the beast heads, also it's ment to be lankyer than the other two, but I haven't fixed that on the 3D model yet. The thing that urks me the most though is I caun't use dragon fins on male beast heads, but you can on female. Strange.
So anyway, do you guys have anny suggestions on how to improve the in-game character? Any feedback would be GREATLY appreciated.

If you use a normal head, i think a monster head works too, you can have ears that are kinda similair to those on your picture.

otherwise i think youre pretty close

Forget the goggles your character looks very good without them.

You wont really be able to make what you want .... sorry.

Like FISKK said, you can't get the ears or goggles you want on the beast head. Your best bet would be to use a humonoid head and work around these limitations .... let me see what I can do real quick.

Thanks for the go, I knew coming into it theres no way I would be able to get it exactly like the concept, its just a absolute impossability, but I think the outcome was OK myself. I was really just a little bugged by the fact that I couldn't have the dragon fins and a few other nit picks. I did actually think to myself before starting weather to go with a human face and work from there, but I figured that if I went with that, it would alienate to much. I'm pritty sure I'l just wait until Cryptic updates there character creator and use the file from that as the perminant main.

Really? I'm not sure if your referring to the self made model or the Champions one, but at one point the character didn't have goggles at all (self made one), but I figured I should put somthing there to get rid of the "mindless monster" look, being that the concept was a character who has a seriously large IQ. I'd go into detail, but that's not really for here.
