This is all The Black Mage's Fault.... He had to go and model that Moogle. Mogs make me think of Lulu... (and 'Kupo!') Lulu's my favorite video game character of all time, and for the obvious reasons :D Lara Croft ain't got Nothin' on Lulu!

 

Here's my Refs:

I'm using this one for the front:

And here's what I've got after about four hours:

I'm working on this to pass the time. Things are still up in the air for me. I might be able to get to SIGGRAPH this year, since it's in Boston. If I do, I might be able to afford the upgrade, and depending on that, and how my life is at that point, I might be able to volunteer again on TWO, but I'm not holding my breath.

 

I've been lurking around, here and there, and everything looks great so far with the TWO project. I'm glad to see that the Winkee Village is turning out so nicely, and has a wonderful storybook flavor, but now has quite a lot of 'gingerbread house' style to it too. Looks cool. Make sure the building with the Turret makes it into the film. Every storybook enclave needs a turret...

Thanks, Dhar. It's good to be around again.

 

Here she is after another hour, for about five total:

I'm not sure about her animatability given the five pointers at the corners of her mouth. Does anyone have any suggestions on this? (Even though I probably won't animate her, one never knows, and it's always good to be prepared). Other than that, I'm pleased with how she's coming out so far...

Nice to see you back, Lazlo!

 

Good job so far, I don't see any problems with animating what I can see...could you give us a closeup of the possible problem area?

Here's the patch in question:

I'm only slightly concerned with creasing, since it's in an area where there should be a crease anyway...

glad i could give you the idea!!! but around the mouth makes her look older.her face in the game was completely smooth witch made her look like she was in her 20's.but the is so far looks like she's 30.smooth that up and it'll be perfect!!!

Sorry it took me so long to get back to this, Lazlo. I don't think you'll have any problems with that five pointer...I'm not 100%, but, high 90's. It looks like it will crease in the appropriate place.

Ok, small update:

 

I fixed the crease around the mouth to make her look younger. In doing so, I realized that, yes, Dave, she should have no problem expressing. The crease should look good when it's there.

 

Also, I extruded the back of her head, now I'm up to the ears. I hate ears... I can never get them stuck on right. Also, in the picture I'm using for the profile, it looks to me like her ears are set too far back.
