Hi everyone...

We are celebrating New year's now, dont ask me why and what it means, as long as we have a holiday from work, speaking of work, we wanted to make a small greeting thing to send.
The problem was, we had only one day for it, this is what we came up with I think we went abit crazy but it was fun anyway :D

Who worked on it? Ill tell you all,

Yoav Savaryego did this violent explode, isnt it cool? oh yeah, he also found this sound...
Ben Pank and Avi Ben Avraham rendered and shaded this little guy and Opher Shafir had like 15 minutes to model the text and he did it in 10...

So, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE, from Israel...

hehehe, sweet... nice work!!!

i have only one coment... if it's a snow man, what i think it is, it really doesnt looks like too much. Maybe a carrot nose would be a perfect detail.
If it is something else then i said nothing!!! ; )

any ways, cool stuff, nice animation, lovely explotion...

happy new year to you too, you made me happy so you deserve it, the animation is so good and you surprised me, I didnt think this cute will do this, you guys are talented.
I have alot to learn, Ill stick to modeling for now, animation is too hard for me.
Amazing greeting animation.

BTW, PVexler I think cbaristo might be right cause the little guy got a cup off coffee or tea with it and well... that be the only reason you would just turn to liquid....DUH! (unless im totally wrong ... in which case... I'll go sit in the corner and think about my actions. :sad: )

Excellent!

It would have been a touch better if he'd had more anticipation before the 'pop' - say, have his eyes closed for a couple of frames before.

But all in all, it made me laugh!

:D

Ranimate,

Whenever I see your name as the person posting a new thing I know its a great thing to download and save in my special folder named: Animation to learn from

hehehehe this one is so cute, the animation is great too, I love it.
Hard to believe its a 10 seconds animation done in a day, thats great.
Where is this character from? who designed this little guy? can I adopt him? hehehehe
Amazing work there buddy. :buttrock:

hehehehe, thnx people!

Yo, scob, thnx man, to be honest bro? we are also amazed we were able to finish it on time, it was fun though.

Srulik, my brotha Srulik, I havent told them u designed the fonts... he did that!!! love you man.

Aj, thnx bro, I agree, the anticipation could have had more touch, we kinda cut it there, the initial animation was after the big anticipation up he comes down and starts to shake really fast and then blows up, kinda like a popcorn.

cbaristo, thnx man, no snow, I wish it was snowing here... I miss canada...

Rubi Hammer, toda rabba ben adam ;)

ceeegeee, ceeegeee my man, thnx bro, as always! The design was mine :blush: it was meant for something else that will come out soon.

I dig the design, thanks for posting them, I guess one of them was used as the front image for the modeling phase,eh? Nice model, you kept the line exactly and it feels the same, that is also something that one needs talent to do.

What is that Red one doing? is there gonna be a red one too? cant wait to see them both animated.

That is so cute, I showed it to my girlfriend (character designer too) she loves it.
I think the animation is really good, you can totaly see how the character thinks as he comes to a complete stop after the slide and then decides to "disapear"
Great job. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
