TheSpleen Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I don't think I need to tell ya who this is. Still needs work and cleaning up. Like around the neck there. But a good start I think. Big snake around his neck will help too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted November 24, 2008 Hash Fellow Share Posted November 24, 2008 You're designing lots of cool characters! The splining may even be getting better too. I don't know who that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSpleen Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 Ok now I need a bit of help/advice I got him wearing a trenchcoat that when I animate him will stay still while his legs move. I need the coat from waist down cloth so it will move away from the legs. Any advice or help will be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSpleen Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 The reason I asked for help is me and cloth are nothing but trouble. LOL I just watched the flag tutorial again and nothing was near the same. no spring system, no cloth wizard, no simulate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted November 25, 2008 Hash Fellow Share Posted November 25, 2008 Generally, for cloth to even begin to behave usefully, it probably needs to be mostly pretty square patches. the long tall ones look unlikely. On the other hand I've never tried it that way, so who knows? Cloth is an advanced topic that requires enormous diligence and a love of experimentation.

TheSpleen Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 so just hang it up and use a short coat? seems the easy answer I guess. would have been a cool look though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are people who have done long coats. Scour the forum for their accumulated wisdom and give it a try. I know it can be done, but testing, revising and tweaking simulations is for the exceptionally determined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSpleen Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 I will just go with the short jacket, but thanks. next step is his stage. Decided to do the song "No more Mr. Nice Guy" plus he has lots of props like guillotines and stuff. Should be fun designing. Long render times though.

TheSpleen Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 On the stage is a guillotine. At one point in the song I want him beheaded and the head fall to the floor and still singing. Is there any way to do blood? It isn't a must but it sure would be nice if someone had a neat little trick I could use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSpleen Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 render times on the hair were massive! After all this time I had only 26 seconds of video, so I modeled the hair and now have to start over but render times should be much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
