I promised someone I would make a designing topic by today so.....

both models are still in the modeling processes and are nearly 2000 verts. I'm going to make a couple revisions to them in the next couple of days. If at all posible I'm going to try to edit the verts on the inside of the 2nd model's mouth once it has a skeleton

2nd model


guess what they are ;)

I have 2 people to thank: Mr.Samosaurus and Hendrix. Sam advised me with modeling and Hendrix helped me majorly with my first attempt at making a model in blender. (I failed tremendously at installing blender) but that is a story for another day...
once y'all guess the species I will reveal them in full ;)

You should space out the vertices a bit more on the head and neck. For example, the front view of the head of the first model has too little detail, while the side view has too much detail.

Gastonia burgei and Tyrannosaurus rex. Now that that's out of the way, we can have full reveal, yes?

(By the way, the view angle on the T. rex model is the best thing ever.)

Both the Gastonia and the T. rex look really nice. I love how chubby the T. rex is.

You need to switch the positions of the Mirror and Armature modifiers. Simply go to the modifier tab (the little wrench icon) with the model selected and click on the arrow button on one of the modifiers.
Edit - Wait, that doesn't seem to be happening in any of the pictures you've shown..?

You should also make the bones display as sticks, rather than octahedrons or whatever those things are called. Go to the Armature tab (the stick man) and click on Stick.

Hope this helped. ;)

Guess what I fixed:
Posted Image
yeah, the rig works perfectly now B-)

I found the problem: I had 2 mirror modifiers. I deleted one and re-weight painted the arms and legs, now it is fixed.
I also figured out how to edit vertices on a rigged model and now some problems with the lips are fixed. I should also mention that I updated the mesh's shape,

I guess I'll have to work on constraints, animation, and texturing next.

also Microsoft forced my comp to update to windows 10 against my will.

The topology already looks drastically improved; definitely a very promising start.
As was asked previously, are you planning to make new animations?
