Roughy Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 aight, so i decided to try out an Anime style character, dunno if i failed horribly http://www.streamload.com/roughy/shiponround10.mov http://www.streamload.com/roughy/purpleeyes.jpg it is supposed to look like i chick, but as it turns out, thats a hard thing to do. c&c welcome !

Flog Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 Looks like a good anime character to me!! Pretty much the standard!!! Quote
starwarsguy Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 AMAZING! GREAT CHARACTER! I wish I could do that... lol Quote
Grubber Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 Nice character, but I think it's not very anime. First I think the eyes are too big and too close each other. Second, the nose does not looks right, and the top of the head is too low... This is my humble opinion! here: http://www.polykarbon.com/tutorials/ you can find more about proportions! Oh, btw... I like the shading and Quote
Roughy Posted December 27, 2004 Author Posted December 27, 2004 http://www.streamload.com/roughy/frontwire.jpg aight, ill get to work on it when i come back on friday, Going skiing for a few days Quote
Roughy Posted January 4, 2005 Author Posted January 4, 2005 aight, started tweaking the hell outta it on sunday, and this is the results, so far. still need work on the hair and do eye brows etc. http://www.streamload.com/roughy/multiround1.mov Quote
Admin Rodney Posted January 4, 2005 Admin Posted January 4, 2005 Looking good Roughy! Your first character definitely looks more feminine with her new eyes. Good job. On the second character you have the anime style down but that shadowing... ... Intensional? She looks sinister even. I'd put a light in front of her face right inside the model. Quote
Dearmad Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 Anime or not... I liked the Eyes closer together. Those far apart eyes (which is NOT the classic anime style, its something I've noticed happening more recently) just creeps me out (When they get too close to the edge of the face, almost like fish). Anyway, looks like a good effort all around- what are your plans for the character? Quote
Admin Rodney Posted January 4, 2005 Admin Posted January 4, 2005 Pete, You're talking about the second one right? The avatar looks a little 'gollum' like and maybe its the eyes that are doing it. I couldn't put my finger on what looked off and I assumed it must be the shadow. Quote
Roughy Posted January 4, 2005 Author Posted January 4, 2005 yah lol. i noticed the whole shadow thing as well. thats just the defult placement in chor, didnt bother to change it. as for the eyes being far apart..... the anime i used as a base for that character is from 1997, i guess thats recently, but i kinda like that style. im doing the character for a short, scifi of course. mainly dog fight (space) but also a few indoor shoot outs. know my chances of ever finishing it are slim to non, but, maades..

Roughy Posted January 16, 2005 Author Posted January 16, 2005 well then, got another one of them modeling rushes and started modeling a new character, so far so good. http://www.streamload.com/roughy/haruwires1.jpg Edit: Wireframe link works now Quote
Malaclypse235 Posted January 16, 2005 Posted January 16, 2005 Wow, VERY nice! It's a very nice design and has a great hand drawn/painted look. Your link isn't working though. Would love to see the wireframe. Mal Quote
Admin Rodney Posted January 16, 2005 Admin Posted January 16, 2005 Very very nice Roughy. That image looks like something I might have seen in a japanese animezine only a year or so ago. I think you've nailed the nose/bridge profile too. Bravo! Quote
Roughy Posted January 16, 2005 Author Posted January 16, 2005 i was messing around with different toon shaders, this one gave it kind of a....angel look O_o. should prolly keep it like that, even tho i didnt realy mean for her hair to be pink. im looking to texture the hair a bit, ye know them usualy lines, but its kiiinda giving me a hard time, specialy the strains of hair that are sticking out front, not realy sure how to approach it. Quote
Zaryin Posted January 16, 2005 Posted January 16, 2005 Yeah, I definately like the hair pink. She looks great. Quote
Kricket Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Nice work! Looking very good. Just want to chime in with something, don't let anyone tell you what "anime" is. Different shows each have their own style, some more realistic than others (Ghost in the Shell, Crying Freeman) some are super-cute and chibi or grossly exaggerated (DBZ) Do what you think looks good To heck with the naysayers.

TacoBallZ Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Roughy, you might want to adjust the bias value on your light to something higher, like a 3.0cm, this will prevent those jagges shadows. Give it a try, lemme know if that does anything. Seeya. -Taco Quote
patmals Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 i agree with Kricket, it's your character - its your design. It's yours. And it looks great! Now birng gthe character to life! Quote
Roughy Posted January 17, 2005 Author Posted January 17, 2005 Thx everyone! Im planning on doing the rest of the body as well, japanese school girl (pfff...what a kliche) render without the strong light Quote
Zaryin Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Way better in this lighting. I would watch that piece of hair going through her ear though. Quote
Roughy Posted January 19, 2005 Author Posted January 19, 2005 well, still not done, need some eye lashes and the back of the hat still needs (a lot of) doing, and i freakin forgot to pull that strain of hair outta her ear...and...i somehow managed to stuff in another few seconds of "nothing" in the clip....pfff... http://www.streamload.com/roughy/haruround1.mov Quote
Zaryin Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 HAHA!! I'm sorry to laugh, but I can see how that happens and you get a little strained. I wouldn't worry about it, she it looking great from all sides. Quote
