update....
(darn 30K limit..GRRR)

[nibo]

Hey Hasch2o!
I made his lip a little bigger, yeah looks better now. TNX
Any cool ideas for his body?
I think he will get a snail-like back. Kinda Jabba the Hut.
He will be a dirty bastard, that's for sure.
I put some wrats and disgusting later on.
C ya

[Raul-Reznek]

Kick ass dude :D!
I really don't think u should make him a slug :D

Give him some legs man! :D

[xeno]

he reminds me a litle of jabba the hut, but that is no way a bad thing, were u inspired by him? I think its looking pretty sweet!
Hes really cute!

edit: i was responding too fast, now i see what u said about jabba lol, ignore my post, except for the liking part!

[Kamul]

heee's so cute i love him really:love: :love: :love:

[jpoortvliet]

Looking good Nibo! :buttrock: :airguitar Now make him so disgusting that he wil make me throw up..:p :drool:

[Nomolos]

I don't like the legs Nibo :p

The rest lookes nice though ;)

[Hairball]

Hey Nibo, i think it's looking great.. i would definately give him legs.. you know what else? a friggin small wheel cart thingy that looks like what old people at malls run you over with, but dripping with stuff and just junk hanging from all over the place, dunno, sounds cool and it would definately make him look so not much like jabba.. Good Luck!:thumbsup:

[nibo]

Tnx for the replies dudes!

Raul-Reznek: Tnx bro, yeah I will give him some legs! :)

xeno: Sweet, Cute???? No man, you must be filled with horror, when you see him! He's the ruthless king of the swamps!! ;)

Kamul: Yeah he is kinda cute :D

jpoortvliet: DEF! :airguitar

Nomolos: Shut up! heheh :beer:

Hairball: He will get some froglegs! Maybe his back will be more like a frog then a slug, dunno yet. :rolleyes:

[night goblin]

moooohohahahahahah!!!!

nice model man .waiting for the rest .




the night goblin has spoken..........mooohohaahahaha:buttrock:

[Willem]

nice little fellah,
but I don't know for the frog legs??
maybe if you post a render i know what you mean, but I think he's to heavy to make jumps like a frog..

Good luck Willem

[buzzlightyr]

love the frog thing think my baby sis wants it as a teddy :applause:

[king of tartine]

yeah,good man :thumbsup: very good LPM..., the software?

[buzzlightyr]

hey nibo when you model, do you start with a box and bevel and extrude it into the shape you need, or a single face and extrude its edges to form your model.
(like the joan or arc tut):)

[nibo]

Tnx for the replies so far.

night goblin: Yeah I'm also waiting for the rest....hehe
Please post some of your school-stuff, so I can see it!

Willem: He will get his froglegs, but your right, he's too heavy to jump. (actaully he's too heavy to do ANYTHING! hehehe)

buzzlightyr: I also would like him as a teddy...

king of tartine:Tnx! LPM? What do you mean by that?
Software: 3d-Max

kannu: Glad you like 'm, it isn't a supermodel YET, but it will be....;P

buzzlightyr: I usually start with 1 poly and start extruding the edges. Pull some vertices and voila! And I always start with the eyecascets, I think that's the easiest way to model a character.

Yeah there will be an update after this weekend.
Stay tuned!!!
:beer:

[TheFreak]

Hey he looks cool, and you could give him a big wobbly chin when talks.

i think give him we stumpy fat legs and a massive arse with loads of wee hairs and spots big yellow puss type ones. maybe and if he is being animated they could pop and ooze puss as he talks.

I have added a wee pic with some edits, it's not great and the ass still isn't big enough and the feet have bad perspective but you'll get the jist. Hope you don't mind me drwaing on your pic.

anyway keep postin the updates

Later

[nibo]

I had no time this weekend to work on Morgazz, but I'll show you an update anyway.
Hope you like it.

[buzzlightyr]

look good man :scream:

[gnarlycranium]

Oh hey, wow, I love that back-shell design. And he doesn't look like a Hutt anymore! :D

[Raul-Reznek]

Wow!
I really like where this is going, very unique NIB.

:D

Can't wait for styling! :D

[nibo]

Thnx again for the replies!

The modelling part is almost over. Let's concentrate on morphing, texturing and rigging.

Any ideas are more then welcome. :D

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/temp/cgtalk/Morgazz06.jpg

[gnarlycranium]

Ohhhhh, he HAS to wiggle those fingers when you animate him. Like sortof rock forward and back a little to settle himself while he's thinking about something, and wiggle the fingers! Oh, he's going to have so much personality! :D

[aenema]

very cool, excellent modeling. I cant wait to see this thing when its dont being rigged and animatable! :thumbsup:

[Willem]

Thats coming along very nice.
Now its clear what you meant with those frog legs!
Good luck with rigging and texturing!!

Greetz Willem

[PCollier]

Wow I love the new improvment with the legs and the back bit. What program are you using? gonna need some kind of fancy rig system for his wobbly belly. You could use the new jiggle feature in Maya 4.5 if thats what your using :shrug:

Looking forward to seeing nice slimy texture :bounce:

[buzzlightyr]

looking great man cant wait to see the texture you give hime :annoyed:

[Raul-Reznek]

The other render was better to my opinion.

I think u should stylze BEFORE u go off to riggin and all.
Make him look like a chieftan, some pendats across teh back and neck and so on!

[Edouard]

What a fat ugly frog you've got there...nice model keep up the good work

[(Courtney.H)]

.:Added to my inspirational list:.
--This is a great model---

[Edge]

Hey Nibo,

Excellent progress so far man :buttrock:
Those back-shells look like a cool idea and you worked those out perfectly...

One suggestion: Maybe you can bring the beginning of the chest a bit more inwards, to the neck. I do hope this makes some sense :surprised
I know you want to make him a fat lil' character with a big neck, but it seems a little off roght now.
Don't know, can be just the render...

Rest of the model: :beer:

Keep those ****** jumpin' ......

Cheers.

[Grub]

I like the fatty - should make an interesting character when textured.:bounce: When you come to animate, it'd be fun to have a big slimy tongue whip out, like this-->:p

[nibo]

Thanks again for all the sweet replies! :love:

The texturing will be quite hard I think, but not too hard.
Yep Grub, he will get a big tongue!! hehe --> :drool:

Raul-Reznek: Yeah good point, I'm working on it! I hope you like the way he's going.
I make him like a orracle/chief, who's wise in his own way.
You guys will see what I mean... But he def gonna be funny!!!

He Edge!! Tnx, I dunno about Jun**, ya'know!
Hehe I do not understand your neck-story completely, so let's say it's just the rendering....hehe
And YEAH!!! KEEP THEM JUMP'N!!! WOOOOHOOO

Stay tuned ya'll!! :beer:

[nibo]

I started with some texturing.
His shell will be redish with some black accents....I guess..

NOTE: THESE ARE ROUGH TEXTURES AND BUMPS, SPEC AND SO ON!

Some kid lost her armbrace and Morgazz took it captive...
I will give 'm a scepter later on.

Let me know what you think about it. :)

http://www.vi2.com/getFile/119273.jpg

[Willem]

thats nice!!

[Equinoxx]

excellent start on those textures man . . .
be sure to add some dirt [mud] on him as well ;)

[Edge]

Excellent progress so far on the textures!:buttrock:
The two-color tone looks great.

I'll be following this one.
And def. (!) have him keep that necklace. :)

Cheers.

[night goblin]

wow ...............
nice job man .love the necklace.


soon i will post my school stuff so stay tuned.


mmomomooowoohahahahah.

[nibo]

Tnx for the replies! :bounce:

[Equinoxx]

it just gets better and better man.
maybe tone down the red just a wee bit . . . also, but i'm sure you'll do that, his underchin and belly need wicked texturing like the rest.

ace update . . . BITCH ;)

[Threedeemer]

Man this is turning out really great. Like what your doing with the textures.

[erik2003]

That rules!

Absoluut heersend model

[buzzlightyr]

man with the textures that frog thing just looks better and better :surprised

[nibo]

Tnx for the replies!

Here's a lil update.
I adjusted the chest part a bit and added the colorscheme on his back.
The backshell hasn't got the right bump and stuff, but the colors are pretty def.
Soon there will be a bigger update....

[Vash T Stampede]

MmorrgaZZZZzzz,

Me likey!:applause: :buttrock: :airguitar :D

[podoba]

suprise

it's LORD OF FROGs..

well done. It look as roughest frog in swamp. It must be a best predator of catching flies :-)
:wip: :)

[nibo]

Update :beer:

The end of texturing is near!!! :bounce:
Then I'll have to make some morphs, rig, animate....:arteest:

enjoy!

http://www.vi2.com/getFile/127686.jpg

[Fetus23]

Fantastic!!.. The texturing is looking really nice nibo! I can't wait to see him with his mouth wide open! I hope he has some teeth....
Oh the burps this morgazz could belch :) :D..I can imagine the rippling lips!! :applause:


:beer:
fetus

[dungbeetle]

cool dude!.
hey, i couldnt' believe how much he'd changed(i mean the character) to such beauty with textures on, from the first page that you've posted!>
you've go great texturing.
but i think you might wanna put some wrinkles or stretch marks
around the eye area and nose bridge area. cos it looks kinda too smooth and clean over there.

nice speculars! and bumps.
GOGOGO! make him move!!!!

[Vash T Stampede]

Very nice Nibo...

[Izu]

Nice nipples... :scream:

[Raul-Reznek]

WOW NIbo!

You outdid yaself here :D

Looks very, VERY interesting, i like it so much beacause it is unique,
I think u should remove the green from teh face tho or combine it with a stronger yellow.

C ya mate and keep kickin ass! :D

[Troub]

haha, this rockzzzz....
seeing him reminds me of my neighbour. i always asked me what might be his name...now i know.
rofl
keep up

[rrobert]

Nice model, I have made a model my self.. Perhaps you know him??
Mine is called : Midric (before it was called> Borgazz)
Rings a bell? :p

Hi Nibo!! :wavey: it's me.. Robert :p

[xeno]

Man in the beginning i said i liked this model, now imust say i love it! its turning out totally awesome and the textures are prefect! I have one small crit thou, the red around his mouth and down his arm doesnt seem to fit that well to me, but thats just my opniion.
I love what u did with it!:thumbsup:

[nibo]

A small update...

http://www.vi2.com/getFile/131960.jpg

[XD-0608-U]

not much else to say other than :drool: :buttrock: :applause: :thumbsup:



:beer:
-XD

[nibo]

The soap-bubble-blower (I don't know the right word for this, but this is a nice one I think...) Is also found by Morgazz and chewed the bottom part off. Now it's used as a "magic"scepter. I think you'll get it, he's a fat junk collecter and use it to impress his servants.
Anyway, I still need to tweak some textures, but the whole object is collerd now, so that's a relief.
Maybe I'm gonna make some morphs first. :airguitar


Fetus23: I don't think he will get some teeth, cause frogs don't have any......I guess...hehe. I can imagine him belch like Barney, that dude from the Simpsons, at Moe's.

dungbeetle: You're right about those wrinkles, will take a look at that. tnx

Vash T Stampede: :beer: (uh...replace beer for your daily Spa-fruit drink,hehe)

swirly-chicken: Pervert :P

Raul-Reznek: Tnx bro, I will take a look.

Troub: Maybe he evolved from an old ancester of Morgazz....

Straightmark: Hi, yeah I know the guy, hehe

xeno: Hmm...maybe, but I really like the poison-look-stroke. I don't think I'm gonna change it, but thanks for thinking anyway, I a apreciate it.

XD-0608-U: not much else to say other than :blush: :beer:

[erik2003]

He definitely needs a sucker-tongue that he can shoot out ;-)

Man this is a great character.

[Vash T Stampede]

:beer: daily Spa-fruit drink... Jeah I got lots of those :D

A bubble Blower?! :p

[nibo]

http://www.vi2.com/getFile/134470.jpg

[nibo]

comment: He's about to cast a spell on ya'll! MOWAHAHA

The texturing isn't quite finished, but I wanted to rig him first.
The rigging is still in progress, but the arms are ok.
After this the next thing will be the morphing part.
Oh yeah, he needs that sticky tongue for those fly'n snacks... hehe
And maybe something on his head, some sort of crown, we'll see...

C&C are always welcome:)

[Vash T Stampede]

Nice Feathers ;)

[rrobert]

hmmm, nice model you got there Nibo. :thumbsup:
I still think that the bump on his hand is to high. (rough)
Well, see for yourself. :p

But awesome modeling Nibo!! :beer:

[Nomolos]

Textures Nibo... Textures :rolleyes:

;)

[Willem]

nice feather indeed, but the bump on his belly seems to be to repeated i guess maybe some more variation in size and direction, that would change the pattern..

good luck

[nibo]

Straightmark: The hands and feet textures will be modified, but that's not my first priority right now.

Nomolos: THE NOMOLOS!!! The're allready zwaar techno, so stfu gast. hehe :beer:

Willem: Maybe I'll change that, but Im not gonna promise it... :p


Right now, I'm gonna place Morgazz in a liveaction shot.
I have to track it first, but I just made a single frame to give you the idea.
Morgazz is sitting on his rock and suddenly a McShake is floating by, and of course he's gonna cast a spell on this rudeless imposter.
So this is only an indication of how it will look like.
Hope you like it and c&c are of course very welcome.

A Mcschake, a rudeless imposter? I did not know that...:shrug:
I will have to keep my eyes open now, especially inside a MacDonalds!! :bounce: :bounce: hahaa

[jpoortvliet]

Nice Work Nibo!!! MORGAZZ Rules!! :beer: :buttrock: :bounce: :drool: :airguitar

[Vash T Stampede]

Evil-Milkshake? NOOOooooo.....!!

[rrobert]

yes!! EVIL

[jampoz]

If he's a wicked bastard, and if he's some drug-mafia-boss... i bet he boasts himself for all he got, all this power and all his money... turn those primitives around his neck into WICKED JEWELS!!! :o)

I'd add a skull-like jewel in the middle 'cause he looks so shaman with that staff and i bet it would help making people around him feeling terror when he comes close.... burps apart :o)

Those jewels will take a long time to render but i bet the photons/caustics on his skin will look EXTREMELY good.

[xeno]

I must admit, the first time i saw this one posted, i wasnt sure of wether or not it would ever be finished here, but man...this is looking so cool! I cant wait for that animation, i think itll be hilarious. Looking forward to see this one finished!

[magicm]

looking good so far nibo!
time to do some tracking ;)


:beer:

[S_3D_A]

Hrmmmm monster this is shares close resemblance to Jabba methinks:)

Just slightly but hey I like the textures and the overall modeling keep it up. And hey nice composite comp.

[Raul-Reznek]

Lookin good Nibo, but the nekclace doesn't fit if u ask me :D

[Vash T Stampede]

Vash The stampede demands an Update! http://members.lycos.nl/shakunetsuhadoken/Gifs/donovan-pocketattack.gif

[nibo]

Thanks guys for the sweet replies! :bowdown:

jampoz: He don't get one of those standard "evil-skull-jewel-necklaces". Sorry... Just a plastic one, he found in his terretory...

xeno: Just stay tuned!

magicm: Yep, I know. :arteest:

S_3D_A: I wouldn't call it a CLOSE resemblance.
He is fat and some kind of feared dictator, but that's all of the resemblance I find...

Raul-Reznek: If you talk about the material, you're right.
It need some closer look. tnx :beer:

Vash T Stampede: I demand some COFFEEEEEEE!!! :p

[tinitus]

pretty good...nice texture!

[Oppie]

Is he going to blow bubbles at that innocent McShake? Oh no, I can't bear to watch him waste a fast-food product!

Great model, great texture, great everything! :thumbsup:

[That Adrian Guy]

I love this!!!

Are you going for a porcelain look?

I should read all the replies but I don't have the time.

That necklace is hillarious!

[Lukashi]

My first time seeing this thread, what a strange and cool looking character :)
