Admin Rodney Posted February 9, 2004 Admin Share Posted February 9, 2004 Didn't see this posted in the forum so posting it here. Apologies to the list for any duplication. Hi All, I think someone put a link up for some Dragonfly rotoscopes and they were absolutely amazing. I couldn't resist but to try my hand at a quick model and animation. This is about 3 hours of work. I rushed through and didn't spend a lot of time decaling and stuff, but I am happy with the results and may even consider doing it properly next time! http://members.rogers.com/eliscio/AMfiles/Dragonfly_003.mov Cheers, Eugene Awesome. Simply Awesome. Clearly demonstrates the usefulness of sharing information with each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iham Wrong Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 He looks nice as is. Dragon flys are rather difficult to watch or inspect up close. Plus they bite. There is a neat trick you can do with your background image that would give it a nice 3D feel. Use the image as a rotoscope. Build splinage to match one or two of the cattails and decal it with the same image. Pull the fake cattails to the foreground. With that same geometry you can use it to make an alpha image for either cookiecutters or alpha layer. A:M can work like a super alpha mask maker with fancy spline controls. It can also be used to do some complex perspective adjustments on any picture; basically a Super Goo. A:M is a very versatile application. Just add imagination and a lack of funds for fancy software.
