Character-Penguin

[Pengy]

Some of you might remember this guy. After hearing Shaun Freeman talk about face rigs and facial animation the other night I realized there was no way given the layout of my models beak it would work...so I redid the beak and surrounding mesh. I still don't know if it will work but I think now at least it will have a better shot. I also redid the decal and applied porcelin. 1st time using porcelin and all I can say is I like it alot. Anyways let me know what you think.

I changed the beak again and rounded the face some more. I have a question about the inside of the beak. Do you think the same colour is ok to use or shuold it be a darker yellow or some other colour?

Looks good. Maybe adding a tongue could give you some color inside the beak.

[Pengy]

Thanks for the suggestion Mtpeak2. He's not going to talk so I just added some colour in the mouth, seems to work ok. I also readded the porcelin mat. I really like how smooth it makes things. Worked on the hat a bit to make it look better.

Looks real cute. He reminds me of Chilly Willy.

[Pengy]

Thank you Headless Chilli Willi was one of my favorite cartoons when I was a kid. Being a Canadian I guess seeing him in all that snow reminded me of home j/k

[Pengy]

tweaked the body more and added the vaunted porcelin to it as well.

Hey Pengy,

 

Very cute penguin. I love his sneakers and bowtie.

 

There seem to be some bumps on his body that look like they shouldn't be there. He looks like he should be smooth all over. And maybe his head from the side is a little too flat. Maybe round out the back of his head a bit more.

 

I think a few minor adjustments and you have a successful penguin character on your hands

 

Nice Job
