It is strange how there is ONLY hair for his pinch and top of head. We should see shaved beard (very short hair)

Show us what you have in mind! btw woa, the turtles look nice!

About the castle: Why don't you model windows and flags? It would look a lot better than decals Here is a picture of what I was saying about the 4 towers that aren't like the actual castle

The castle is nice but you missed some details the princess' castle should have. take a look at some reference pîctures. see the 4 towers around the castle, they stop where the water usually come... and flags anyway, great start

was the lunch great?

No update yet. Very busy for the next week: exam monday on Structural Analyse and exam Thursday on mechanic of fluids. I'm sure you get it by the names. Then, friday, I'm going to the US (since I'm in quebec city, it's a long trip) for a civil engeneering steel bridge competition in Connecticut. I'll see if I can work a bit on mario but don't expect much

Good, I'll try that but...what is cp weighting?? lol

I changed the cp at the foot but there still are some problems

Problem with animating mario: is it my rig that isn't good? is it my model that wasn't design well for animations? is it because I have to do a lot of smart skin?

I used the 2001 rig... but, when I use it, it strangly dont look like the rig tutorial... I guess I'm gonna make these bones show and assign cp to them instead.

I moved back the foot bone and it fixed the foot problem but mario still looks like that. Which bone is doing that? and thanks for the tip case lol "fix the rig!"

I tried to rig mario but I guess this is what happens when you have no experience. any1 could take the work from here? lol I could have tried to make poses for face and emotion but I wanted him rigged before. Edit: I have no idea why his legs go like that. I just tried to create an action and it did this

Do you guys really expect to make money out of this? I'm here for fun and if it gets about money, I think the fun will be gone

I think you guys should check this message on mario bro z forum. We should at least be informed of this type of thing. http://z10.invisionfree.com/Super_Mario_Br...;#entry12429708

I tried the rig tutorial once but I know there there is a plugin for sale about rigging. Is the good old method still fine?

Nothing seems to be done right now so I was wondering if I absolutly needed a special plugin to rig mario or I can try it with the rig tutorial?

Are you guys talking about making money out of a mario game?? 1. you simply can't

Following the suggestions I recieved about mario in the super mario bro z forum, I changed him a bit. bigger feet (and edited a bit the shape too) changed the pants at the bottom shorter arms and legs fatter M on the cap --> the black sides on the M look strange. did I do something wrong? about the eyes, some ppl said mario's eyes aren't like that. it's true, it should be more blue solid... I suck at texturing so any1 could edit that? also, will I get textures for pants and shirt? Edit: oops, here is the pic

I think the side walk would make it funnier because it reminds the older mario games.

That sound great (I though some1 took it already) Edit: just Pm me the url.

Is there any other building I should model? Mario's house? Does he have a house? Or another character like hammer Bros Or the Big cannon ball Or the round black "dog" attached to a chain?

Here is what I found. None are good rotoscope but you get the overall view. If you need precise pictures of some parts of the castle, I got a n64 emulator and I could take screenshot.
