thanks Mark for looking at it. I have sent the character. Steve

Mark Would you have time to look at the shoulder area on my character? I can not get the weighting to work correctly. I may have positioned the shoulder incorrectly. Steve ssshelton@tulsacoxmail.com

thanks Mark for the 2008 rig I am loving it so far. I hope to have him weighted by wednesday and start having some examples up Steve

Thanks Steve can you email me at ssshelton@tulsacoxmail.com Steve

Mark I am on step 71 of 77 and we can assign the weighting to all the cps necessary? The mirror plug in will copy weighting? Steve Sorry I still feel like a newbie when it comes to rigging. I have alot of characters to rig so here goes. Just want to make sure I get it right

thanks Mark! Steve

Mark With all the topics on the rig just wanted to make sure I d/l the current version. Also, there were several topics on the face rig. Was that used from squetch rig? Or was that something you created? Thanks for your help. Steve

Nice looking character! Steve

Ok that did it.

How do you get the bump to lift? I have change the percentage but I can not get the panels to lift.

Trying to get a handle on bump maps. Here is a door with flat mesh with a bump added. Steve

Myron Nice work! can you email me at ssshelton@tulsacoxmail.com Steve

Well after a month of work and the installation of couple of new networks, I can finally start working on AM and Cupid's Sick Day again. I want to explore how Robert's sock puppet and the cloth setup. Some new tutorials have been added over the last month. You guys have been busy. Steve

I have started and plan to finish Cupid's Sick Day!! It is not going to finish this year, but the goal is to spend the time to actually finish something I have started. Right now, with work, I am spending no time with AM. But that will change. I am also going back to school, animation school in the spring semester. Never too old to learn. Steve

Stian Incredible!!

Keep going Mark I just got to get something rigged so I can play as well Steve

This is excellent stuff Mark. I will be rigging again soon and want to get into the bvh files. I look forward to more on this from you. Thanks Steve

Gene I love him! he is a great looking character. Steve

Katt I am sorry I have missed this thread. Really nice. I love the look you have achieved. Steve

Wow Gene! That looks really nice! Steve

Keep going Mark! This is stuff I want to learn with AM Steve

Holmes I modeled it both ways. One with clothes for cloth simulation and the other with the clothes as a part of the body. Steve

Mark Been following the text part from cell from while out of town. But seeing all the things added, this is great stuff. Steve

Sorry about the last post. I tried to post from mobile phone and things got left off. What I was saying is that the artists are either 2d artists that have been trained to draw Disney characters. Or they are artists drawing 2d figures but have an interest in 3d. Most have never used a 3d software program and really not interested in learning. Only a handful are actual animators using 2d or 3d techniques. I guess I was suprised by these statistics Steve Heading back to cold in a couple of days.

Made a second trip to WDW this year and of course I took the drawing classes at the animation part of Hollywood Studios. Talking with the artists are either 2d or 3d
