Eey! Bunnyman :)
Actually, I've scrapped the sketch that's online right now... i'm trying to get that comic twist to the new one.

Good luck to you as well.

Rock on :buttrock:

[erilaz]

Good to see you again three! :D
Get those vertices pumping!

[three]

@ erilaz ... good to see you to dude :) I'm pumping my vertices so much i'm afraid they'll crack :rolleyes:

[three]

I have one small draw back though... i don't know how to model heads :D but it's coming along. :) i'll sort it out as i go. another update tomorrow i guess.

cheers
:beer:

[three]

Okay... this is the... um... fourth time for me, this contest alone, that I'll have to start all over again. The .max-file crashed... I get one hell of a funny message:
File Open Failed: E:\contest\me03.max

Sometimes... sometimes I just want to die.

[three]

Okay... I've redrawn the sketch again... and now I'm hoping that 3D Studio MAX will hold up long enough for me to finish :)
you never know though. right?

so, forget the previous sketches and ugly faces:

[three]

Allright!
Finally some progress. I've umm, "finished" the head. I mean, when do you really feel finished with something?
I've still got to open my mouth, and put on some ears... oh yeah, eyes as well, if I'm not to wear my cool sunglasses :)

Right now though, I've moved on to the body, urr... I hate do do legs.

For now though, I'll give you head. :rolleyes:

[three]

Allright. I've come a bit on the way now. Ehm... anyone's got any good tips for the legs? I'm hopeless when it comes to those :)

Crits people!

[OZ]

KOOL!!:cool:

[three]

@ -OZ- ... Thanks :D

Another update is on the way, but on the hands, the legs'll have to wait... I don't really know how to get them to look good... :/ but in due time.

If you build it, it will come

/:King3

[three]

Is it that bad? So few people have replied and so many have seen what I've done... I need some c&c dudes, what can be improved?

:shrug:

/: 3

[Iguiniz.X.]

I c you have been improving a lot. I really like the shape. but I'll have to wait for the details.
Man you got it easy.. You are bold^^"

:lightbulb Just a idea but maybe you should give him more shoulders I mean it is a bit flat now pronounce it more.

:wip: :wavey:

[ChrRambow]

Nice Start! :thumbsup:

I agree with Iquiniz.X. ...waiting for more details to give critique.
Keep on working. :beer:

[DimitrisLiatsos]

:bounce: good start.. i am also waiting for more detail before i can comment on something:wavey:

[dark_lotus]

within the detail a critique awaits:thumbsup:

[three]

Oooh! Crits... let's see here.

@ Iguiniz.X. .... details are taking form :) I'm currently on the head and trying to get that straight... and i guess you're right about the shoulders. By the way... bold? :) Thanks for the "improving" bit, I kind of feel it too, I'm trying my best.

@ KoRn_ART ... Thanks. And the details are on their way... I'll render out some new views as well, can't keep staring at this dude in the front view anymore :) Get's boring.

@ DimitrisLiatsos ... More detail on the way :D

@ dark_lotus ... <laugh> yeah, you're right. Details! Details! <keep working>

Thanks to all of you, you're right about the detail stuff and I'm right on it, like a bloodhound. The hands and the legs are the things that trouble me most right now... the detail will come when the whole basic Me is finished... that's when I'll start going deeper into my features :D

Rock on!
:xtreme:

[three]

Yay! More updates. hehe... I'm pretty happy with how I look right now... the only thing is one weird mesh-up around the chin area. I'm working on that right now. Otherwise, it's as close to me as it gets, cartoon-like.

Enjoy

[sorry about the bad quality]

[three]

and the head from a couple of different angles.

[URI::G]

damn you look creepy... :)
It's coming along great. And I like those shades. :cool:

[three]

@ URI::G ... haha :D thanks, I guess ;) It's portraying me in a bad mood with my :cool: sunglasses.

man, am I that creepy? <sob> :rolleyes:

[three]

Ah! Here's me!

[three]

Umm... no, wait, that's my cat. sorry.

here's me. :)


Edit: Forgot to tell you that this is me, but if you imagine this picture without hair... that's more accurate. Now it feels like I've said something with about twice as many words as needed. :D

[ChrRambow]

Hey! Your beard is longer than mine :p

The Body is looking a littlebit cubic i think but i don't know if that was the style you going for.
Like the head very much. :thumbsup:

And a Great Style you got here. :applause:

[three]

@ KoRn_ART ... thanks :) Yeah, I'm after the more cubic look. but not too much, and I think I've got that right at least. If you're not referring to the real me :D
I've been saving my beard for better days :) you never know when you'll need a rope, and in a few years time I'll be able to make a plait of it.

Still don't know what I'll use as a hobby though. <sigh>
But I've still got to rig myself before that... and that'll be hell to do :hmm:

Rock on
:xtreme:

[three]

I just got Marilyn Manson's "new" Single, Tainted Love... I noticed that there were a couple of more "poppy" songs on it... not Manson, but on the same record. I really, really, really hope that he's not turning soft now... that'd make me cry.

Still, the song on the record are pretty good, but not what I'm expecting from Manson.

:hmm:

Oh, by the way... I'm working my way onto the clothes now... so, the details should be on soon.

/:king

[3D Freak]

I'm diggin' the style you got going on here.... your character looks like someone I've seen before but I can't think of their name. Anyways keep up the great work :thumbsup: .

[three]

@ 3D Freak ... thanks dude. that made me happy :D I'm just finishing off my favourite "vest"... and the pants that I love wearing. [all made by me, by the way]... this should turn out to be quite interesting, quite soon :D

Update after the weekend.

[three]

right, here are some new updates, I've done the clothes, not completly finished mind you... but... well, i've done 'em at least :D
detail are working itself into the model.

C&C are welcome. Very much so.

Rock on
:xtreme:

[three]

and here's the second image... live long and prosper.

[levin]

great! you need a bike now.:buttrock:

[Iguiniz.X.]

Cool:beer:

Coming a long really nice there.

some litle comments.

Give the beard a look like you have in your consept drawing.
The :twisted: twisted beard.
then the ears are to high on the head it has to be in line between your eyebrowns and the noseholes. Maybe it is a toon but still I think you have to keep certain composition right.

Keep it comming :wip:

[three]

@ Iguiniz.X ... hey :D thanks. I'm working on the beard, right now it's just WIP you know :D
The ears you say? hmmm, that would make me loose that nice cheekline i've modeled... i've got to think about that one :D
thanks though.

:xtreme:

[three]

@ levin ... haha :D you think so? Shit, I haven't got a bike... I've got to model something else... maybe my old tricycle? :rolleyes:

:xtreme:

I want you all to know that I'm trying to get my trousers right... eh..."my" trousers, that is. Not the real ones. :D
WIP me :wip:

Rock on dudes.

[three]

and Duderettes ofcourse. :buttrock:

[three]

aaaaaaaaaaargh! Again!
This is driving me nuuuts :insane:
Once again Max ****ed up the .max and I'm left sobbing over having to build up the shirt again, as well as the trousers I was allmost finished with. G'damnit!

And my screen has begun to make funny "wheeee" noices... I'm worried.

[three]

Dudes and Duderettes... I have once again reached a new peak in my progress :rolleyes:
Two new WIP's are here for you.

#1:

[three]

and #2... I expect crits now... tear this baby apart.

[RockinAkin]

Looks very cool.
I like the "I'm one mean badass" look on his face. :cool:

The hands look a bit flat though... like a steamroller ran over em...

Keep it up!
-DivideByZero-

[three]

@ DBZ ... thanks :) The look on my face will hopefully fit in good with the environment. The hands, yeah, I know... I suck at hands :D I'll try to tweak them a bit when the rest of me is finished, if there's time. otherwise, they'll have to suffice.

:xtreme:

[three]

hey, i would've had some update for you now, if not max broke down again :)
Lucky me the .max didn't get destroyed this time.
Now I'm having a huge problem with rigging myself. <sob>
and I SUCK at keeping the polycount down to a minimum.

Anyone's got any good tips at rigging? Because I can't seem to be able to get this to work... I'm trying to change the weight of my "1"'s to "0,519"'s... but the weight don't change.

I use 3D Studio MAX 4, for those of you that have missed out on my outbursts earlier.

Any tutorials or tips would be really helpful.

Strangely enough I can change from 0 to 1 but not from 1 to 0.

weeeeird.

:xtreme:

[three]

Allright, I just wanted to tell you guys that I won't be able to finish this contest either... I'm not too experienced in Rigging, and besides, I'm moving to Gothenburg tomorrow... it'll get hectic. So, good luck to the rest of you.
hope to see you in the next one.

:xtreme:
