Hi all, it's been a long time since I posted. Real life medical problems kept me away, not mine but family. I just got another year of Animation Master. To refresh my spline modeling I'm working (WIP) on this simple Mace type weapon. Normal map details will be done in 3DCoat. This year, I will work on learning the nuts and bolts of animation. I got Jeff Lew videos ( his older ones when he used Animation Master and Working through Barry Zundels videos as I buy them) It was good to see the the King's Throne I modeled in some of Nancy's draft videos from the Scarecrow of Oz... The rope to the mace's handle was added in another program.

Hi all, I've been modelling this while learning AM, still got a few stickers to add, This bike is partly my design with inspiration taken from existing motogp bikes. I've probably overdone the bloom a little but it's close to finished. Thoughts and comments welcome, Geoff Modelled in AM 10.5r Textures PSP 8.0

I am currently working on Bender from Futurama. I am still very new to AM and don't know much about complicated modeling. Which is why I started with Bender, he's mainly lathes and extrudes. What I need help on is his feet (I have figured out all of my other questions). The issue Im having with his feet is that when I try to put a surface over the bottoms it warps the rest of the foot-cup (pic 2 below). I have tried extruding the bottom circle and then making it smaller, but that makes "smooth" lines which bows out the bottom of the foot. Any help would be much appreciated

Hey guys, well it's been a while since I put myself through a speed test. Since I have this new character to mess around with, I thought I'd put something together. I literally put this together in 20.min. I used a run cycle that I previously made, put a path in, then animated the dive in the cho. window. Don't know if there is anything more I will do to it, even though I know there's all sorts of stuff to adjust.....

Naboo

Someone emailed me who had heard I did Star Wars models for A:M, and wanted me to make a Naboo for their fanfilm. I'd done planets before so I agreed. Tell me what you think before I send it to him. By the way, it's a sphere with a green planet map on it with a high blue ambiance, inside a sphere using a transparency map that is the color white.

Muscle-man type. A bit of a brute. Most of the detail I've worked on is in his face. The rest of him will (hopefully) get it's detail from texturing rather than modeling parts of his costume.

So, I had this idea - it may crash and burn... but here it goes. I need to learn how to model and rig a mouth - and learn it well. I think I'm not the only one. I've been wowed by Victor's mouth rig, and David Simmons "Bertram's Face Rig". Trouble is there are no tuts out there to explain them. David has posted his files and some explanation but for a n00b like me - it's not enough - and I'm still not sure how to well design the MOUTH first (modeling wise) to get rigged well. So I figured I'd make kind of a generic 'mask' face. I'd post it here - we can all iterate the model until we feel it's well done enough. Then I'll start trying to implement one of these boned …

Hello, We've (John "Hubukai" Hubickey and I) are still working on sets for our characters. The thought entered my mind that these characters should be good for any set we make for them, so I've been playing around with the old roto feature a little in A:M. I found that I don't really need to do it that way, since A:M puts out really nice alpha channels in the TGAs that can be used to copy your character from a blank scene and paste onto a photo directly, via Photoshop. The Idea was to use the rotoscope feature in A:M (right-click on the "shortcut to camera" in the PWS under the Choreography) to light and adjust the camera angle to fit the photo. Then take into photosho…

Funny story behind this. So I am taking a 3D Animation course at the college I am going to, and the program we are using is Cinema 4D. We are doing a bouncing ball project, and I decided to do it in the program I am familiar with as well as C4D. I will compare the two when I am done and upload a comparison video if I see fit.

The first time I really went to town for an animation in AM- and I mean REALLy went at it- channel editing and everything, I remember a moment when my wife walked past me, took a look at what I was doing and sneered. I mean she really audibly sneered too. You know: "Tsh..." I didn't understand what could have caused her reaction- but she thought that what I was doing looked so *ugly* that she couldn't understand how anything interesting or even amusing could come out of it... So now, sometimes I sit back, load up ALL the channels to a character in a scene and sort of look at them... they really are sort of beautiful to me; hard to believe I'm responsible for a…

Hello, I'm getting to the point where I am finalizing the construction of this dragon model, and I have to attach a hand, where the hand has 12 pts at its beginning, and the stump of the wrist has 8, I believe. This has always been the most difficult part for me....I generally try to model parts separately, and then attach them later, as that has always been the way that has worked best for me in the past. However, due to AM being different from polygon modellers, it doesn't seem to make sense to do that anymore. When I am trying to join to parts with disparate numbers of points, the simple solution is to make sure that each end has the same number…

Hi. I have noticed some strangeness in hair from time to time and the attached file is an example of a current problem. Dynamics and collision detection are turned off yet I am getting this distortion occuring, as if collision detection were activated. Any ideas? This model still requires alot of work on the geometry and rig but I have a problem that someone may be able to shed some light on. For some reason the head bone refuses to work in an action or choreography. I have tried creating a pose slider to get around this but that refuses to work too. Any ideas what could be preventing me from rotating the head bone? Thanks for any ideas! [attachmentid…

Hey guys another guick banging animation excercise for myself. This one is a real mess lighting wise. It's really just about learning about the wonderful Chor. action feature. I swear I don't know why I didn't learn about them earlier.... would have made my life a bit easier! Anyhows, the scene for the most part has been deleted and I plan on redoing everything....

So I took another road: Now it uses a lighteningtechnique quite similar to yves skylight-rig (so many lights placed in a sphere around my object. I am although using a reflectionmap (using a material) and more important a boolean cutter. As you can see, in the sphere, there are the artifacts (and if you look very precisly although at the left top of the ball itself. Any ideas how to get them away? Thanks in advance *Fuchur*

This is a model that I started a couple years back for the Siggraph cloth demos, however I didnt have enough time to get a successful project going but I kept him around because I liked the posture. Well here he is now with a full set of wings, new schnoz and tail. I will post more replies later with wireframes and progression pics. I hope you enjoy. The wing skin isn't quite attached yet. I just threw it in there so it wouldn't look so bad. The slow process of stitching it into the wings will eventually be done. [attachmentid=21341]
