johnl3d Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Inspired by who knows what I decided to try to model something recognizable I did this in 11.1e with no problems and then rendered it in 12 alpha7 so it would be a jpg without converting this is a rough model no rigging just an attempt to do something ii don't normally try oh I did find a roto through google Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted March 31, 2005 Hash Fellow Posted March 31, 2005 From Bloom County, right? A good likeness I think. That is definitely above and beyond the tinkering level. Quote
Admin Rodney Posted March 31, 2005 Admin Posted March 31, 2005 Yup. The Tinkering Gnome is out of his cage... I say again... The Tinkering Gnome is out of his cage. Quote
KenH Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 I don't know him, but he looks fine. Now to animate! Quote
Godfrey Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 It may just be the angle, but it looks like his right arm is a bit longer than his left one. Otherwise, excellent! Quote
Admin Rodney Posted March 31, 2005 Admin Posted March 31, 2005 'Tis Opus of Bloom County comic strips by Berkley Breathed (or however you spell his name). Quote
Mr. Jaqe Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Replying to johnl3d tries to model a character johnl3d did well, johnl3d did VERY well. I remember that dude from a mag, I remember reading a lot of him, but I can't remember any of it Very nice model! Quote
NancyGormezano Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Ah yes - John now has a new victim to set on fire, disintegrate into particles , deform & maim, and inflict whatever other evil unspeakable cruelties, yet to be - Thom is free!! Long live Thom - poor poor Opus... I look forward to the inevitable mayhem. Good Job John. Quote
johnl3d Posted March 31, 2005 Author Posted March 31, 2005 thanks for the comments..his "wings/arms" are same length copied flipped and attached. Same with feet. Actually I used the wings to make the feet... fingers become toes and legs added to a little tweaking. Yes its Opus Oh Nancy OPUS is safe now if I can do bill the cat Quote
Biotron2000 Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Looks good! Bloom County is my all-time favorite comic strip. I hear they are going to produce a CG Opus movie, too. I started modeling an Opus a couple months ago and never finished. I had trouble with creases. Figured I would finish it when I get better. I still need to work out how I'm going to do the pupils, eyelids and mouth. Here's a pic. Quote
