Patent troll

[Metin_7]

Illustration of a so-called patent-troll (a company that buys patents to gain profit). Patent trials are often held in the state of Texas, because the jurisdiction is more flexible there regarding this subject matter.

I like it!

Are we going to see him animated?

I like the scenery more than the troll!

I agree - I like the BG stuff but not too keen on the troll, he just looks too stiff.

I was in Amsterdam last month & saw some of your figures in a vinyl shop in the city, they looked good!

Thanks guys! But a troll is stiff, never seen a real one?

AJ, cool! Always nice to hear that my critters have been spotted somewhere.

By the way, here are a few different renders of the troll:





I actually designed the figure to become a toy (maybe that explains the stiff pose a little). The original name of the critter is Toilet Teufel.

If you'd also like to see it as a toy, I'd appreciate it if you want to vote for me over here. Many thanks in advance.

I think the shape of the little guy is cool. My only crit is that the wart texture looks a bit too regular... almost gridded. I'm assuming it's a parametric texture. A custom painted texture would probably add a lot to his appearance.

Makes a great toy though no matter what!

Thanks guys!

The texture is indeed a procedural one and a bit regular. I found it already too prominent to give it even more variation.

Cheerio,

Metin
