3DM3 has a tutorial from Marcus Dublin where he constructs a “Paragalis”, a “walking parasite approximately the size of a large dog”. It’s fictional, yes, but it’s a great tutorial of modeling, sculpting, texturing, and mapping.

Tools: 3ds max 8 / 9, Photoshop, Mudbox, Zbrush 3.1, Crazybump, Polyboost
