Alright, another quick update. I'm dedicating this entire day to finish the Ho-oh model, and it's looking AWESOME.
I still have to do the wings (Ho-Oh's wings are really weird, so they're kinda hard to model), the tail feathers, and perhaps tweak the geometry little bit to make it smoother and it'll be ready to be rigged so it can be animated.
Altogether it wont take too long.
