Atomike Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I've done alot of mechanical modelling & animation, however this is my first real character. He's a power plant worker to be used in a tour video. The body, hands, and hair are from various characters on the "Extras CD", although each have been modified slightly.

Dhar Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 That's a great looking character, expressive face. Good work, would love to see him in an animated cartoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Lots of character in this guy! Are you gonna do the mouth with an animated decal? I've always liked that approach for cartoony "bigfoot" characters like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomike Posted November 14, 2006 Author Share Posted November 14, 2006 You guessed it - an animated decal for the mouth. I've been a fan of this approach ever since I saw my first VeggieTales show. Before I get animating, I've got lots of rigging and smart skinning left to do. Thanks for all the positive comments! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jentham2000 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Hi Everyone, This seems to be a good idea, what is an "animated decal for the mouth"? Thanks, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luuk Steitner Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 This seems to be a good idea, what is an "animated decal for the mouth"? A video file with an animated mouth applied as decal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phatso Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 (slap forehead) Why didn't I think of that? Woulda saved me an immense amount of work. Atomike - not only does that model have personality, I happen to know that guy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
