Yes! Great news! I just loved your gen-man, I can't wait for the lady Thank you, you are doing public service with this! Drvarceto

Lovely work!!! Excellent characterm great body... Didn't like the nose though ... seems that it doesn't belong to that face... but having in mind your modelig... it seems that you wanted it tht way! GREAT!!! Keep on good work and keep community informed!

Cool character... Slap some texture on him and soon... he seems to be quite cold being naked like this Keep on the good work! Drvarceto

Here is first sequence rendered (avi xvid- I/ve tried with quicktime, but files were jyst getting way too big- sorry mac users) This is my second pass through the sequence, so there are some timings to be adjusted, byt I think that I maneged to get the feeling of desperation and dissapointment through... Crits and comments are very wellcome!!! Drvarceto _sc1seq1_ver_03_trajcedrv_yahoo.com.avi

Rodney, seven, KenH - thank you for the tutorials. Most of things I already knew, byt some repetition never hurts... I just want to say that I really, really appreciate your generous efforts for the community... Having said that, you shold also know that thank yous are rare all over the world this days... just kiding, but you have one more thank you from me! I think that this tuts will be from incredible value for the begginers... in time, perhaps, you should think about collecting them to one place in some organized form... Drvarceto

Cool!!! I never thought to make toon render of Mikke... Looks kinda old cartoon-ish Thanks!

sorry, clicked Add reply before actually adding the file Have fun!!! mikke_walk.avi

And Avi made from it (DivX) - please do not try to reflect upon the quality of the animation, I know that it sucks

Here is choreogrphy with Mikke walking and talking, and two actions Mikke_Musse.zip

Here is little something I found out looking through my hard drive. For obvious reasons his name is Mikke Musse This is 30's version of the character that I really like, except for the eyes whish have lids... This character was made as modeling and constraining exercise, He has old rig inside him, and dos not have phonemes or other muscle poses, you will have to pull the constraints slider to constrain him... I Hope that you'll like Mike I would be very glad to see if anyone comes out with something funny and cute with him, and if someone decides to pop in TSM 2 rig inside, I wouldn't mind to have it for playing. Here it is (MDL) Drvarceto Mikke_Musse___.mdl

Not to get too technical here, but shouldn't the top row of teeth be upside down? I know the blood would rush to their heads, but it would make more sense. I guess it would depend on where you need to go with the animatiuon/story, but the upper row could complain about being upside down, etc. Yeah, that would save me a whole lot of work, but I'm afrait it would interfere with the clarity of the message and move attention of the viewer other way... Here are those same guys set into more realistic gums Drvarceto

Serg2 - Your animation is nothing short of amazing! You've modeled and animated two models that are really tough to animate (no hands, essentially no bodies - really tough to get some acting from them) but you did it really great. BRAVO! I also loved the textures! Trajce Drvarceto

Here are two rows of teeth; as someone may already have guessed this is ad about importancy of the ortodontic control... Question: when using fog with multipass render, distant teeth (objects )get quite blurry - is this the intended feature or some glitch? Also: when making group and then moving group of objects in choreography, undo doesn't work?!? I guess this is not intended behaviour... Maybe constraining to null is better solution, but grouping done right would be nice... Waiting for comments... Cant' wait to start animating those little fellows... Drvarceto

Here are some really sad uneven teeth... Drvarceto

As a matter of fact, they do have teeth I've rendered them in toon mode so that I would try different looks. Final movie should be with normal rendering. (Teeth look better that way)

Short animation to test the rigging. I know, I know, there are some mistakes in timing, but I've had to try the characters with motion blur and dynamics applied. (and some fog in the background) Waiting for comments Drvarceto P.S. anim is avi with xvid compression (no mov, sorry) zubici.avi

Here are two characters (the larger one is done by Ctrl-scaling of the bones)

I am making small ad with teeth as the protagonists and I've just finished modeling of the characters. Here is toon rendered character.

Thank you for the wireframe... incidentally, I thought that I no thank you note was necessary, but ... no update for such a long time ?!? I'm just joking... keep on the good work and thanks again... trajcedrv

Amazing textures. Good model. Contradicting popular opinion I really liked pointed teeth (not that I would like to meet this Odin in the street though) Anyway, (allthough I am not an expert) I've always had the feeling that even the "Good" nordic gods are not that good in the christian sense of the word, so this look is probably very very appropriate. I would love to see your Thor (and Loki ) Some wireframes would be really nice GREAT, can't wait to see the animation!

Great model, Allthough I woud make his feet bigger (It's just me, so don't pay attention) I think that those moustaches would look great with some dinamics applied. I would also like to see some wireframes. Maybe print screen key would do the trick, providing that you remove timeline... etc from the AM window Thumbs up! Great work, can't wait to see it animated!

GREAT MODELS!!! Cow has amazing dose od "personality" in it although it obviosly suffers bad case of the "mad cow" disease. I must say that I find that your texturing looks great, If you consider this weak, what is good! By the way, could you drop in few words how it was done, I would really really like to know Keep on great work!!!

Dear Jim, I've always felt that you are THE BEST (i've had to use capitals) MODELER in whole AM community ever!!! I've spent several hours just admiring your models and how the splines flow. Poetry in modeling if I could say that. Hope that this does not make you too proud (You know, pride is sin GREAT!!! Drvarceto Trajce

Lovely, lovely, lovely. Great characters, great trailer, cant' wait to see the actual movie. Drvarceto
