totlover Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Hello people, This is a model of the one and only Yosemite Sam from Looney Tunes. There is no specific reason for the model i just wanted to practice. Not much is attached but his character doesnt seem very attached from the pictures. Quote
the_black_mage Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 cool looks nice so far can we see a side view? Quote
totlover Posted February 21, 2007 Author Posted February 21, 2007 here is the side view... it is not very clean i dont know what to really do... all the pictures show connected but i used a rotoscope and..... just need some tips. 1502 patches if you wander Quote
LeeAnderson Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 That looks great! I always wondered what was behind that black mask...I guess I know now Quote
the_black_mage Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 post a wire frame so we can see better... Quote
cfree68f Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 very nice! you can try Wyle E. Coyote next. he's my favorite ;-) Quote
Zaryin Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 Coyote and ROadrunner should definatly come next. I love him. He looks great. Quote
the_black_mage Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 the splining looks great! have you ever heard of pocelin?(if i spelled that right) Quote
totlover Posted February 22, 2007 Author Posted February 22, 2007 i am still a newb really. tell me about it "Porcelin" Quote
Caroline Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 I thought that was looking good and smooth without porcelain, but here's a small tute on it: Porcelain Tutorial. To find the actual material, if you do a Search for porcelain.mat on your CD you should find it. Quote
totlover Posted February 22, 2007 Author Posted February 22, 2007 yeah.. people on the community helped me and i understand now. thanks guys. i am hoping i will have more today. Quote
Dhar Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 That looks great. Always loved Yosemite Sam. Your model could use some spline reduction.. Still looks good though. Quote
totlover Posted February 23, 2007 Author Posted February 23, 2007 where should i cut down on the splinage Dhar. i am not trying to sound like i am perfect and i dont see where, i am still learning and would like to know. this is just for me to learn more stuff. Quote
Dhar Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 Well, the nose looks a little spline heavy. Most the model seems to be made from simple extrusion. I see you've utilized some hooks in the legs, which I think you could also incorporate in the torso. Are the eyes basically a modified tube? I would suggest getting William Suttons (Zandoria Studios) tutorial of building the gorilla. It's only $20 but just seeing his technique is worth the price. Quote
gugesbri Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 here is the wireframe. Looks great. Can't wait to see the finish. Gustavo Quote

I would suggest getting William Suttons (Zandoria Studios) tutorial of building the gorilla. It's only $20 but just seeing his technique is worth the price. yes i see now that my nose is a little spline heavy thanks for pointing that out. and yes most of the model is made from extrusion, and the only thing i could think of for this model was extrusion. not trying to sound mean or nothing. why would i use hooks in the torso if there is no need. again...just asking. and yes the eyes are a modified tube. i dont know of what else to do.

Dhar Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 why would i use hooks in the torso if there is no need. again...just asking. and yes the eyes are a modified tube. i dont know of what else to do. Because a hook is one CP less, but if you don't need it then there's no point to it. Since you don't see the back of the eyes then the CP's in the back are too many. If you form the eyes as part of the head then there would be no CP's hidden and therefore less for the computer to compute => faster. Quote
totlover Posted February 27, 2007 Author Posted February 27, 2007 thanks and i just want to let yall guys know that though it may seem as though i have forgotten about my character i havent. the same with the Bean characters.... i have just been busy with stuff and havent had time to get to them Quote
totlover Posted March 11, 2007 Author Posted March 11, 2007 Hello and sory for the lack of update for a long time... i have been trying things for most of the time for him and sometimes didnt get around to him.. I hope yall like him... And i also made his gun.. i need to rig him but will need help. thank you, Caleb Please Comment him back.... here it is not in JPG.. it looks better in BMP Quote
ruscular Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 where should i cut down on the splinage Dhar. i am not trying to sound like i am perfect and i dont see where, i am still learning and would like to know. this is just for me to learn more stuff. I have to agree, I dont see where he could reduce the spline. I would er on the heavy side if he is going to animate Sam. Quote
the_black_mage Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 turn off receive shadows if your going for a 100% 2d look...that all i gotta say rather than nice model lol. Quote
