Hey all! Been a while sinse I've posted. Of course, it's been a while since I accomplished anything!. Heres a link to a project in the works. I hope to have more done by the end of January. Please let me know what you think. -Chuck

Thanks for the comments all. Youtubed? Yes! As for what inspired me, well heres the whole boring strory. I was toying with some modeling on Thanksgiving when my sister came over. She started cooking dinner and said, "I hope I can get rid of the callories after today's dinner". Working on the donkey model at the time, I thought up the idea of him doing areobics. I thought it would be funny to add Richard Simmons voice to it, so I Googled "Richard Simmons Wav". I found the file with the added words "I'm a pony! I'm a pony!', etc and the rest just fell into place. Also yes, I noticed that key frame missing. I need more practice!

Heres something I threw together while waiting for Thanksgiving dinner to cook. The voice is Eddie Murphy doing his impersonation of Richard Simmons. Sorry but I only have it in Windows Media format. You may recognise the donkey as the one from the Hash CD library. I upgraded him just a touch. Simmons_Fat_Ass_0001.wmv

Wow! Thank you. That means alot comming from someone with your experience. The backround music was ripped from a Carl Stalling CD. It's music from alot of the old Bugs Bunny cartoons.

Yes, I have her charecter pretty well figured out. I've been drawing comics featuring her for almost ten years. Heres a quick rundown: She goes by the name Super Mega Fox (SMF). She's a crime fighting fox. Thanks to her friend Dr. Lowenklein, she has the ability to increase her size. An unexpected side effect is that when she grows, her I.Q. drops, thus she becomes a bit of a bubble head. She also has increadible luck on her side. Her arch enemy is a crazed female squirrel known as Power Mad Squirrel (PMS).

It opens with Windows Media Player. I need to reinstall Quicktime to convert it. Sadly Flash files arent accepted here.

The fox is voiced by a friend and believe it or not, thats her natural voice. Do you think it fits the charecter? Also, thats me doing the awfull accent of the professor. ach_0002.wmv

Sorry but I don't have a program at the moment that will transfer it to Quicktime. If anyone wishes to volunteer I'd appreciate it.

I was thinking more Alabamy myself. Strange how you mentioned chany. I was thinking of adding a jpg. of his face in this video.

Yes, I did both voices in a single take. Just sort of thought it up as I was looking for lunch actually. glad you got a grin out of it

Just something I did this afternoon. Cornbread.wmv

Thanks all! Actually, he's not called Lord Snotberry for nothing. You might guess at what his aray of weaponry includes. If you think thats weird, wait till you see his sidekick, Sir Wobblybottom.

All your efforts really show here. These charecters are really neat! Have you got people to voice them yet?

A new model I'm working on. He's the arch enemy of my fox charecter. He still needs to be "aged" a bit.

Those are some very good models and scenery Sebastien. I'm looking forward to seeing any updates. As far as "where" in Africa that would be, I'm thinking Cameroon probably has parts that still look like that.

This is strange but I started work on a dancing Mexican cactus a few months ago. I still need to animate it though.

This is really a usefull item. I need to do a bit of experimenting with it. I'll post some results later. Thank you so much for sharing this!

Thank you!!! And yes, I saw that advertisement before. I really liked the way the Simcloth worked out there. Superb! Oh yeah...I forgot that part. Here's a (brag) spot I finished recently with A:M's Simcloth feature for a Michigan furniture chain... http://youtube.com/watch?v=Yhv88Vakq6Y

I've been looking online but all I see are downloads for the 3dsmax version. Any help is appreciated.

More Borg implants I say. Soon the entire collective will be going "Woo-Hoo! Woo-Hoo!"

Duck of Borg.

That was the early Felix I think. I kind of liked him better than the later versions because he was more of a trouble maker. The one I modled is the 1950's - 60's version. Have you seen the latest version? His personality is so sickeningly sweet, he makes the Telle-Tubbies look like Hell's Angels. Sad really.

Thanks! My Brother will probably go nuts buying them. He was very much into collecting these.

I really like the detail in this. Most impressive.
