SpaceToast Posted June 12, 2004 Posted June 12, 2004 Crashing down to the task of revising and finishing "Aesop's Council of Mice," my next short, in a few too-short weeks. This is a high-res pic of Pawtuckett. (The actual short will be produced at 720x480 DV.) Pawtuckett has a kind of yellowish color to most of her fur, and I'm checking to see if that explains the difference in glow color between the acorns and her. I'm just posting this pic because she's the first of the character models I've revised. I need to decide what to do about her thumbs, and a few other trouble spots, before I move on to the other mice. The hair is 10.x decal-controlled hair- -M@ Quote
heyvern Posted June 12, 2004 Posted June 12, 2004 Nice image. Do you actually have a "glow" on the materials or is that just a yellowish light? It looks like you have a post effect "bloom" set which would accentuate the highlights (whatever color they are). If you look very closely you can see there is also a blueish "glow" on the opposite side of the ear as well. The bloom is expanding those subtle highlights as well. Do you have a color set for the specular highlights? That would also make it appear yellow in those areas. I am just guessing. p.s. I tried to go to one of those "councils" but they wouldn't let me in. I think the exact words were "not for all the cheese in the world". Vernon "EEEEK! A mouse!" Zehr Quote
SpaceToast Posted June 17, 2004 Author Posted June 17, 2004 I've added a few more high-res still to my site here -- the first four from the top. I'm realizing that I can use color saturation for depth cuing... but I'm afraid that'll have to wait for tomorrow. *yawn* 'night, mouseketeers- -M@ Quote
Admin Rodney Posted June 17, 2004 Admin Posted June 17, 2004 That looks like a real winner! The combination of photo bacgrounds and CG mice is really working for you. I'm looking forward to seeing more... and of course the final short itself! Bravo! Quote
amarillospider Posted August 13, 2004 Posted August 13, 2004 Hey SpaceToast, I just took a look at the images for this project. They are really amazing! I was just wondering how you have gone about getting this look? You said you were using glows, are you using them on everything? Is it coming out of A:M's renderer this way or are you running it through something else after? Can't wait to see the finished short! -Alonso Quote
