flashawd Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Thanks again for answering all my forum questions for this project. I put it up on my site, if anyone wants to take a look. He's the 5th character over on the top row. www.3dcharacteranimation.biz -Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Rodney Posted January 15, 2008 Admin Share Posted January 15, 2008 Cool character Eric! Nice little animation too. A little crit or two (assuming you are still looking for such things). I missed a lot of your WIP. 1) He seems a little stiff, I think mainly in the legs(?). I might have to watch Toucan's walking and in flight to be sure so... dunno. 2) The feathers seem a bit too hairy. (When in doubt I'd try to simply them more) 3) Its not immediately apparent that he has a helmet and microphone on his head. The outline of it blends in a bit too well with his head? Perhaps a slight color/texture change would help highlight that too. The audience figures it out soon enough of course! Quite an impressive group of characters you are creating. (I thought your frog was going to win the image contest!) Can't wait to see the adventures this group is going to go on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashawd Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 Rodney - don't mind the crits at all, that is the only way to get better - you ask a non 3D person and you get a "that look great" answer... you post in the forum and you get useful crits (the truth) ;-) I was hoping to win with the "heroes" with the frog too, but it's hard to beat a modeler as good as Eric Campden. -E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted January 15, 2008 Hash Fellow Share Posted January 15, 2008 That's cute. I remember you were wondering how to do the feathers. What did you end up using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashawd Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hey Robert - I just sectioned the wings off into 3 section and applied hair at different lengths - and changed the width of the hair in the properties timeline to resemble feathers more. His tail is just the same thing, but 7 inches long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
