Description
Yeah I know right? I keep modifying it, but it's the last time, I promise. B)That is a complete new model, and rig. GUI, dynamic wings, etc.
But yeah, as the project was confirmed with the joining of several artists (THANK YOU!), I did an other, cleaner version of Toothless, and everything is working the way I wanted it to work. And the eyes, finally the eyes.. They finally have a decent rig. I did not know how to do something "good" for the last version and rig. Thanks to experience!

Make one yourself is the easiest way. If you want mine, you still can try to send a private note with your motivations.

I don't. It's a lot of work but basically here's how I worked:
I drew a model sheet for him, modeled him on Maya (started from a cube.. Then added shapes over and over while keeping a clean meshing).
Once I had the basic model, I copied it (to keep an input model) and finished the copy with more details, which is my output model. I then did the UVs for him, and textures (so it's on the second model, the one with details.) The first model is only of use if you want to animate him.

Well this is quite new, at first we were two, DapperSnake and me, then I've written a journal and some people joined. For the moment it's kinda paused if I may say, cause of high school for me, this quarter is a really busy one.

Oohhhhhhhh...... Very pretty! I can wait to get a modeling program. All I have is sculpt+. The face and body structure are on the dot!

Nice to see that this project is still alive! Looks great; and I'm sure that this "model" will surprised us many times ;D

Of course it is!
Yeah hopefully. ^v^
That's the most complex rig (to animate the character) I ever did.

So I'm still waiting for even small animating about Toothless in your edition. Keep going, my friend; it's always a great pleasure to watch your new arts.

Yeah, good luck with this x)

Awesome great progress^^ (What is the approx poly count? )
And if you need more people to help you. Just ask
PS.: Can the Model Toothless also do the same thing with his back fins like HTTYD2 Toothless can?

Thanks!
I've mentionned it on the image, 14434 faces, which means 28868 tris (triangular faces) cause (and that is the first time) I've managed to create a model with no tris, generally I keep getting one or two tris, but here, none.
Oh well we mostly need persons that are kinda advanced in modeling or even UVing, or texturing, rigging, animating, etc. We've started to think about some kind of "render farm" using computers that are lying around, but as you said you wished to help for that part, it's not for now, characters and props are still being created.
And for your last question:Β no it can't cause I only have a basic idea on how to do this on the character with the rig, and also because it is not needed as the project takes place before the sequel, Toothless is not supposed to know how to do this.

*facepalm* Damn me can't read
Well like I said yes I can help with rendering but with the other things...I don't know how to really use maya....I can only work with blender and only basic things so...yeah I think I'll stay with render help
Oh alright.

It's just practice and logic (for the rig) and also, knowledge of the software, there's no secret!
