In another thread (This One), I was aksed what I wanted to model. Well, these are a couple of character sketches but I just don't have the skill to make models from them. Anyway, enjoy the sketches... Adam

Looking good so far.... I like the way he kicks his book to emphasise the phrase "pay for this." If you have more extreme expressions later, I'd leave this first part as is and build up the anger. Good work. Adam

I agree....great integration. A fine piece of work! Adam

Xtaz, You're project looks great....fantastic modelling and a great set. I am really looking forward to seeing more of this. And if you're this good with cars, I'm assuming your characters will be top notch as well. Adam

Thanks, that's very helpful.

Thanks, guys. Looks like it's back to the drawing board (literally). I don't want to cause myself future problems, so I shall have to remodel. Adam

My aim now is to clean her up, get some textures sorted out for her and give her hair. Then on to the body...then rigging.

...and side wire

...and wireframes if anyone is interested...

A side view...

This is a head I'm hoping to use for an animation project. Still early days...

Thanks, guys....you've both been a great help. I'll let you know how I get on... Adam

Of course, half the work. What about clothing? She will be wearing some...am I better to model the clothing fixed to her (but then I'd have to make a whole new model if she wore different clothing) or to add it later as a separate cloth model? Or is it just persomal preference? Thanks Adam

Thanks, Ken...I'm more used to polygons than splines but I'm hoping to change that. Hey, Vern, thanks for that info..very useful. And that's an interesting stereo render. Adam

Hopefully aiming for something like this... Adam

from back...

body from side...

Side view.... (ignore the red line)

OK, I'm going to tackle modelling a character. I've created some images in Poser and my plan is to use them as rotoscopes. The character will be used for toon renders. Are these pics OK for the rotoscoping process, or should I have done something differently? I don't want to make problems for myself before I start. Thanks Adam

Looking good, Animus But I don't understand French so I don't know what he was talking about. Good animation and character, though. Adam

Great stuff. I like all your "Showdown" work...must be dificult working in such a short time frame. Respect! Adam

Frank, that is a fantastic piece of work. Adam

Great work so far....he oozes character. Looking forward to seeing more. Adam

Great job!
