Character: King Mob : Cat Warrior

[SheepFactory]

Update already!

:p


Very nice start man , he'll be an interesting character , I think you should post that pre-wacom sketch of yours so everyone can get an idea where this character is going ;)

[JoeCosman]

Awesome work. Great muzzle and head shape. although the ears seem too narrow at the base.

Making them more triangular would give a more cat-like impression. right now, those are leaning toward wallaby-style ears.

[Cyn]

No offense but he appears to have a bit of a snout to him..making him look more dog like than cat..just my thoughts

[KingMob]

hmm didnt get much done today...did to much chatting/chores...

but I am working on the dog-cat stuff I agree its way to dog like... no offense taken, I totally agree

not done by any means yet, but just to show i did...something

http://ian.gravityfree.com/moreCat.jpg

GOnna start adding definition and details soon as I work out a few things..like his angry eyes hahakeep the comments rollin'!

[leigh]

Looking much more catlike now :thumbsup:

You could perhaps make his muzzle slightly narrower on the x-axis, but it's not a major necessity :)

The ears look much better too now, btw ;)

Give the poor guy some teeth now!!

[Viper.dk]

Me thinks me saw a pussy cat. :wavey:

Nice work man. Keep it rolling. :bounce:

[Fetus23]

mob!!! this new project of yours is off to a great start!! I'm excited for more updates!! ....does he eat birds ? ;) :D


:wavey:
fetus

[Setups]

Wow man that looks great :) I look forward to more updates
:beer:

[KingMob]

hey guys should have changes soon model wise...but heres a quick sketch I did..

As I said my scanner is busted, but heres a quick wacom trace I did of it, to give you all an idea where I am going.. please excuse it's sloppiness...

[Grub]

Looks cool so far, Mob- and since he's a cat-hybrid from the ice-age, you could texture him like a Siberian tiger (the biggest of the cats).:cool: :thumbsup:

[Kralle]

AWesome,
your modeling with Wings3D huh?
Yea i am too, well im trying, still learning.

Anyways, it looks great so far,
if you want take a look at my ship, a few threads under yours :D
Ive been playing around with Wings for likea month now, or longer... its sorta hard to do stuff with, with a 32MB ram computer :annoyed:

[KingMob]

hey guys, i was working on my vfx entry, and some other stuff. but Reworked the face and began a body...havent had much time to do stuff. heres a quick update...still have not begun detailing or cleanup. Also think im gonna redo the ear overall shape

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/tigerUpdate.jpg

also did a sword test...but gonna do it innrbs I think, dont like how it is now... but hey it looks like I did more if I show it :beer:

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/swordQuickie.jpg

Also began work on his glove...not gonna show that yet tho...maybe tomorow.

Feel free to give feedback

[KingMob]

heres the hand in progress...still rough, (noticce a pattern in my posts)

more to come soon

:beer:

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/gloveTestnew.jpg

umm lemme know

[KingMob]

I changed the above hand to fix a few things I did..and not make my bandwidth explode to much.

still have to tweak it more tho ..and add the spkes and such...

[Bubble Gum Jr.]

nice

[S_3D_A]

I only have one ?......what software is this that you are using for this charater. I don't believe I have seen this ui before.

Other than that the charater seems to be coming along nicely.

[Dordoulin]

It's wings 3d, obtainable at www.wings3d.com

nice model!

[KingMob]

well decided to go back to basics on the head a bit...cause i really wasnt to happy with it...not done yet, but closer at least...which is always good

:beer:

http://ian.gravityfree.com/headUpdate.jpg

[Lunatique]

Reminds me a bit of Chrono Cross. :) Can't wait to see it textured.

[AgentX]

Wow. Very nice so far King. I like it. Keep it up...FASTER FASTER FASTER! :p

[hypercube]

Coming along nicely, looks very cat/badass now..the base idea makes me think of a race from an old alan dean foster book..look forward to seeing the finished product..

The glove design is cool too, though it seems like it would make more sense to have the claws/spikes facing the opposite way..or maybe they have claws of their own, could put vents in and have them slip out like wolverine? Just a thought.

Also, is that a neutral or angry morph target? Looks pretty po'd. If it's angry, might be cool to have the ears flatten back :)

[JPGargoyle]

Great stuff man!!!

:applause: :thumbsup: :applause:

You really make me want to continue to explore and learn wings for sure :D

Can't wait to see how it evolves and to see it textured too :)


Best regards. :buttrock:

[jason-slab]

good work Mob0

like those hands errr claws


keep on posting!

|jason

[ThirdEye]

Nothing to crit man, you've become a killer! :surprised :thumbsup:

[KingMob]

Hey guys..little update, I redid the body and am still working out a looot of the kinks but feeback would rule.


THe torso/butt is a mess right now,

Also quick poll to anyone paying attention, should I give it cat legs or just human legs... I cant decide at all.

any feedback opinions is appreciated

*edited cause the pic sucked...and had a silyl error*

[KingMob]

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/tigerBodyBegin2.jpg

i am sure this has silly errros to..but less silly then the one before :beer:

any feedback is great..still wodnering about the legs!

[Grub]

Hey mob, to answer your poll- real cats walk on their toes, so I suppose your cat-man could too.:thumbsup:

[Crash]

KingMob my man what's up? I see your really busy :) Very nice modeling... the idea is cool too, maybe you'll write us a tutorial some day, I nkow that subD isn't ultra hard, but still I myself have a problem with organic meshes..... :p

[strick9]

This is coming along nicely, and after viewing your Rock Shepard I am real excited to see this one textured.

Are you gonna use Maya Fur KingMob?

[Willem]

fine model you've got here.

I think he's looking a but dumb (no offence) for a warrior.
I guess this is his face in relax position so i guess it will change when you've made some morphers??

good luck Willem

[ZeroNeuro]

Excellent work mi'amigo... I'll comment more when I am more well

[Vash T Stampede]

Looks good!

[JPGargoyle]

Awesome!
:thumbsup:

I would give him human legs with cat feet.

Great stuff!


Best regards.

[KingMob]

hey guys umm..I been a jerk and took yesterday off but started working on him today again hehe...

time for the q and a portion of our thread hehe

grub: yeah decided to go with toes, actually in the update youc an see the rough geom laid out...no detailing yet, just workin on proportions etc

crash: good to see you man! hows the tank? hehe you would do fine with organics..your mechanics always rock! I have been saving my steps as best I can and will post them on my site...not really a tut or anything (im far from qualified to tell anyone how to do much)

strick9: yes I think I will use maya fur for this...only done afew tests with it..so this will be interesting for sure :beer: thanks for the comments man!

willem: yeah I agree he has kind of "d'uh hey guyz" face right now (aka dumb) I am planning on revisiting a few parts of that soon, but also hes in a semi neutral face now, and the eyes arent helping lol. thanks man

zero: get better you sick bastard

vash: thanks!

jp: well ill post my update after this post, so lemme know if you like it or not..thanks for the comments man!

[KingMob]

detailing to come next, started fixing up a few areas...still lots to do!

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/smallupdate2.jpg

[podoba]

looks better.
it's going to be a good model.. yep go on :)

[ZeroNeuro]

Looks great :) As long as you detailed the deltoids and abs... where's the ribs? :D heheh I really like where this model is going

[Maximus Groff]

never tryed wings... like those screenshots..

good modeling man.. keep up! :thumbsup:

[hanzo]

it still looks kinda dogy, we got 2 cats and I seen plenty of lions it looks kinda off, but I like the model and it's done well.

[KingMob]

about the dog thing: I think I know waht I need to do, and I will fix it before I go any farther..thanks for the feedback guys!

Im gonna move the snout in and slop it down a bit more...cats dont have enarly as big snouts as I have given this guy...and all his friends will make fun of him if I dont get him some cosmetic surgery stat :beer:

zero: yeah havent hit those areas details yet...soon my friend...soon.

and Maximus: wings rules man, give it a try!

[dshelton]

looking spectacular man, keep up the good work
I am digging the body shape

[KingMob]

small update to be more cat like... Gotta work on these 'ears' they are driving me nuts..then I will make his hips less feminine and start working on his back (including his rump...and tail)



http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/tigerDoom.jpg

[JPGargoyle]

This is excelent stuff!

I wish I could create sutch excelent characters with wings. :drool:

That's exacly the kind of legs I was talking about (with some big, sharp claws alright :D ). I know its a little cliché, but I think fits the character perfectly, but of course the last word belongs to the creator right KingMob? ;)

Thanks for this post, because you are showing us what can be done with wings and that is a great inspiration :applause: :buttrock:

Best regards.

P.S.: Is he going to have a tail?

[slaughters]

"...he's looking a but dumb (no offence) for a warrior. "

Sorry, got a chuckle from this comment. Most warriors were not known for their superior intellects. :)

Nice model going there though. I'm not sure why, but this makes the word "Thunder Cats!" come to my mind.

I have to agree with you that the ears sort of make me think of "cute", not dangerous. Possibly give them more of a ragged appearance. Make them a little longer and drooping a little.

Can't wait to see it textured.

[Jide]

Nice going Mobster.
I think you might want to suck a few steroids from his shoulders considering the skinny limbs he has.

Can't wait to see you try the fur. I have never used Maya and I don't know what Maya fur is capable of but it'd be great if you managed to get that mangy look you have in the sketch

[KingMob]

oops

[KingMob]

hey guys I have been working slowly on him, cause of a few other things (mainly easter and such) but heres my update.

I fixed a few things to be more catlike...nto done yet yet of course...the back is very temp but the details are starting to be added now.

Working on getting the feet done..then the hands.. then tweaking him a lot. then the clothes which will be fun... and so on...

should be able to get hiim close to done this week :beer:

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/catupdate.jpg

[Roman]

Nice, nice muscle definition, nice head (ears ain't finished? maybe you could do something more with them). Not sure bout proportions though. Maybe you should make him a bit longer? Longer legs and/or bigger feet? Also the claws/hands could be bigger I think, would make him more of a warrior. Anyways the waist seem wrong, to fat I suppose (and cats are slender creatures). I tried to make clear with a picture. Keep it going! going to look great when finished ;) Do u have sketch of his outfit or something?

[KingMob]

Another update reworked a lot of stuff..still far from being done
keyt hings I know to fix

1. detail ears heh

2. forarms and hands are really not at all finished just blocked out

3. detail legs and lower stomach

4. back and tail..make it look more natural

6. gonna make him a little more hunched and cat like, and such. adn then tweak a lot of him

Thanks for allt he feedback guys!, and roman, yeah I think I will do something close to that...tho its a bit narow I like the idea..good call...and yeah Ill post some outfit sketches soon.






http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/catShow.jpg

[KingMob]

Last update for today..got a bit slow half way through the day...perhaps I should remove MIRC and msn...its the devil.

next big step is the legs and such...and then those drasted ears.

http://ian.gravityfree.com/updateTonight.jpg

[Lukashi]

Hey king hes progressing well :)

one lil crit, are the ab edjes a bit sharp?

[Jide]

Yeah, He's come along nicely. :thumbsup:
I love the overall muscle definition, as it doesn't look like he's been doing steroids. I have to agree with Lukashi on the abs though. They look too sharp. I've been having that same problem :annoyed:

[JPGargoyle]

Hey this is getting really good.

So much detail with wings :D

How much is the polycount now? My pc would be crawling editing this babe for sure! :eek:

Can you please post a non-smoothed pic please?

Best regards.

[KingMob]

hey guys thanks for the feedback! always appreciated.

I totally agree about the abs..im gonna remove all those edges and relay the loops cause its for sure the sloppiest part (started out nice to haha)

poly count isnot bad at all really just broke 6200 polies with hes eyes and teeth (which are all temp)

On a side note I have TOTALLY changed this character's motif...in drawing costume ideas I started really getting away from mediel/ninja style into something else...which should be a lot of fun to play with, I'll post concepts soon.

here's the wires btw...has a few non planar and tri's bt thats cause hes a wip...they will leave (well maybe a few choice tri's will stay.)
http://ian.gravityfree.com/catWires.jpg

[Vash T Stampede]

excellent, One thingy though:scream:

the tail seems to Sprout out of his lower spine, while with animals it smoothly extends from the back, try and make that transition more smoothly...........Don't hit me!

:p

[ill_logic]

nice going! it's looking really good! the only thing i don't think looks right is the way his snout points downward at such a steep angle.

i did a model pretty similar to this about two weeks ago, though mines much more stylized and a bit more human like as far as muscles go. you can check it out at:
http://kurocrash.tripod.com/lion.html

great minds think alike i guess lol :shrug: :D
keep it up! great going!

:surprised -ill

[KingMob]

vash:

I wont hit ya man...thats true....I gotta work ont hat soon as its looking like poop now.

ill_logic:

Hey neat model man...Makes me even more glad im switching the 'style' of his motif to soemthing new... Yeah the angle is a bit extreme but In looking at a ton of cat pics that seemed pretty common in most mid-sized cats and such... I may end up bringing it up some more, cause I have been thinking that as well.

Hope you don't think I was takin yer idea, I had not seen it before... tho a think a lot of people are doing cat people haha.

well anyways back to work I go to fix him up

:wip:

thanks again guys!

[ill_logic]

no, not at all... i was actually hoping you didn' think i took yours! :beer:
i started this a couple weeks ago when i realized i didn't have any interesting creature type of models to show off. i only showed the model to friends & family.
when i saw your post, it was pretty neat to see a different interpretation of (generally) the same sort of idea.
keep up the great work!

:surprised ill

[KingMob]

hey guys little update fixing his abs and adding nails to remove phalic fingers...and of course that darn tail ill work on soon..and the ears..when willit all end :beer:

:wip:

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/tigerUpdate2.jpg

[JPGargoyle]

:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

what can I say? You really master wings and are a great modeller.

By looking at the wire you posted I can now imagine the ammount of work you've been putting into this char.

:drool:

Congratulation.

I am doing a simple FISH in wings and am banguing my head with the decisions I have to make on how I'm modelling it (should I extrude there or lift? Mabe I can inset and them move it out. Naaah I better bevel it instead) :banghead:

Now I see the long way I still have to go, but seeing works like yours keep me motivated allright! :thumbsup: :applause:

Keep it comming! :bounce:


Best rehgards.

[ZeroNeuro]

You rockersockers... Arms looking good.

[strick9]

King,

Looking good.

If you have some time I would like to ask you about Wings. I know you use Maya correct?. I am mainly wondering how the transition to Wings was from Maya. I played with wings briefly and it seems like such an awesome modeller. I am considering using it for my next project. I guess mainly I am wondering is it easy to go back and forth between Maya, and Wings say for example I want to convert my mesh to Sub-D from a wings model. Do the meshes translate well over to Maya and vice versa?

Thanks!

[KingMob]

hey thanks guys, really appreciate the support!

jp:

just do what looks best...and dont be afraid to redo it, just save backsups in case things go awry!
:beer:

Zero:
Thanks man, you also rox0r!

strick9:
Man wings and maya work together like peanut butter and jelly.. wings models are really clean, nice normals etc, VERY easy to go back and forth (save as OBJ) I am actually doing a lot of detailing in maya cause wings doesnt have a nice split poly toolset eright now, but for getting rough forms its unbeatable in my opinion...

ANd yeah, anything in maya can be saved as OBJ and easily imported (export selection and make sure you have the OBJ plug in turned on.)

but basically its a breeze...only problem i have had is when saving wings models to obj with a number name, it goes a little odd...tho thats not really even an issue.

I should have a new update by this evening, thanks for all the support and critiques once again, it really helps motivate me!

[ZeroNeuro]

heheh king, you played with selecting an edge, hitting L or G and then hitting C? ;) hooah!

edgesplits a plenty. Actually quite scary

Cheers

[KingMob]

Hello again people..told you a while back I was sketching some ideas, and came up with this the past little bit while I had some time,

Still havent gotten a name, but he is a pilot/mechanic, sort of on the run smuggler sort of guy in a steampunk style world.

Also I got a bunch of tweaks done to the model, i'll post a spin around soon, once I get a few more details worked out.

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/early6.jpg

[Lukashi]

looks great, for some reason i flashed back to final fantasy 3 ;)

no cats in it but he would fit in quite well

[hanzo]

looks pretty much like a cat now good Job.. :thumbsup:

[KingMob]

hey guys, figured it was time for a little update, lots more to come,
but I havent updated in a while.

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/tigerIP.jpg

[ZeroNeuro]

I hate you.


;) Man that is rocking... I love the bomber jacket

[Fetus23]

MOB!! Thats looking sooo good...ya that jacket rocks! Keep it up man...this is looking fantastic! the wrench.....the wrench!!!
update me more!!!!

:beer:
fetal power!! :)

[leigh]

Wow, you sure made those clothes fast :applause:
Really cool!! Now add some zippers and buckles to the jacket ;)

[strick9]

King:

This is coming along really nicely. I love the mechanic idea especially the large wrench. It reminds me of an RPG character that would use the wrench as a weapon during a fight.

I got a question for ya or anybody who may know the answer. When you add clothes after the base model of the body, are they seperate objects, or part of the base mesh.

BTW thanks for answering my Wings questions. I look foward to implementing it into my workflow. :thumbsup:

[KingMob]

strick9:

well I think seperate would be easiest eh? Once I get him all ready i will delete faces in his clothes that are not remotly shown, (don't worry ill show him naked for my reel, so It wasn't a waste of modeling hehe)

Glad the wings stuff helped you out btw.

leigh,zero and fetus:
thanks for the support!


not much of an update but a look at his wires... gonna go into more detail shortly and will keep posting images..obviously hehe.

More, more, more!! :drool:


Best regards.

[Raul-Reznek]

Comin along nicely Kin' Mob he

i would suggest u follow ur sketch it looks excellent
one thing i didn't like was that the 3d head doesn't have the same humanly appearence as the sketch.

I believe that is because teh nose and mouth of the 3d are too long, shorten them, bring them closer to the eyes. and the 3d ears aren't as pointy as teh 2d and some other details that make the 2d better.

[KingMob]

Raul: totally right man, i started tweaking it, ill probably keep adjust it to, the ears will be made pinty with fur (like a lynx) tho I might go and do it a little more on the geom to, thanks for the feedback man!

everyone else: thanks for the feedback, more to come soon, rendered this this morning so i figured id share it with you,
its a low poly render so its a bit jaggy

http://ian.gravityfree.com/kitty/lowpoly.jpg

As far as a name.. lol why not 'Mittens'?

Cheers!

[dominicqwek]

Absolutely lovely!! gawd, where do you find the time dude?? Im keeping my eye on this thread. :surprised

Nice King I like it. I've been thinking about doing something similar as a mascot but haven't gotten the time or discipline to get it done! Great work!

[Agent D]

Congratulations on the front page plug! :xtreme: Awesome work as always. I'm looking forward to more updates!

Very cool, but it threw me off seeing the current image in the first post right after you saying you'd worked on it for a little over an hour. :D

[mv]

Hey cooool stuff there King:thumbsup: his clothes really fit him! keep it up :beer:

[Wetterschneider]

Great job, mroow. When I read the first post too, I went "holy boing!" an hour an a half and oh so good. Excellent, though, no matter how long you've been slaving on him, can't wait to see him finished and posed.

[Nicool]

Wonderful work... But I'm not enough powerful to give any advices on this artwork:cool:
(thanks for your post on my head wip)

Eh Hellwolve, fun noun generator application. And it realy works!

[Grooveholmes]

[samartin]

I very nearly decided to turn my back on CG cos' when I saw your 1st posting and you said you took 1hr 15mins :eek: I thought fackin' hell no way...

Now I'm relieved it's the same as on page 6, but damn that is sweet :thumbsup:

[Grgeon]

This is looking way cool King!

Can't wait to see the accessories for this guy and also to see him move :)

God Bless,

hey guys lot of people wanted to see him smoothed so I rendered him out.

the jacket sleeves rendered dark, but oh well for now, I gotta finsih the model haha.

umm thanks so much for the feedback and nice words, really appreciated...should have more updates tonight or in the morning.

[Zytrex]

That guy is looking great! Nothin to crit as of yet. When are you going to add more detailed textures?

[swag]

oh i miss this - very nice work - what poly count have u in wings3d - can u manage this without problems

[MikeRhone]

Looking fantastic Ian. I dont think I've ever seen anyone pick up modeling so fast. Good character design as well. When you're done, you should contact the creators of wings and get it posted in thier gallery.

I hope you decide to animate him!

Mike R

[hanzo]

turned out even better then I thought :thumbsup:

[DKnight]

:buttrock: , damn i nearly got a heart attack when i read on the first page that its only 75 mins. work :eek: - luckyly , i noticed that the picure shown was the newest one and not a 75 mins wip :D

great design and nice modelling

[KOKE]

The model rocks!!

Only 1 hr and 15 minutes.....wow you sure are fast!!!!:eek: :applause:

[Wolf S]

sweet!
I did not read all comments, but will he get whiskers? Most cats used to have some longer hairs around their nose.
:thumbsup:

[Grub]

Top modelling, I like the direction you've taken him, and your sketch could have held it's own in the 2D Art section, King.:beer: :buttrock:

[AVTPro]

Your character is so cool. Also, I really like that you noted other things as a side bar like bios in the development of character.

One thing I think could be a little more unique is the head piece or Pilot hat. I think you could probably be something a little more relative to his cat culture. I think it's just a bit done. Some more of head dress from his civilization. I think his uniform will still be in sync even if the head piece departs a bit. That's just my outlook tho.

I totally like the work and hope to do something with the same physique. You really have it worked out very well.

[Joebount]

Excellent ! Really cool budy ! :thumbsup:

Hey guys, I just wanted to post an update, and let you know kitty is not dead, I just took a break to do a few models/try and drum up freelance(ugh)....

I recently began using clay pretty extensivly and it has changed how I model a lot, so I wanted to go and revisit him and fix up the areas I always felt were lacking..

His hands are wip, and soon will have gloves, and so forth.

Thanks again to EVERYONE for the nice words and such. And please let me know what you think so far,

Awesome work.

I do think he needs longer teeth and whiskers though. :)

Why do you model in Wings 3D if you have Maya? J/k.

in the earlier renders, i noticed that the tail, wasn't really on the tail bone, instead more like a few inches from it

could you post a full frontal and rear view, just to see how it looks in clothes, but it did strike me as lookin kinda funny, it should be lower in my eyes

Interesting, apparently everyone who's joined in the past month is a thread necromancer. This is like the 15th one I've seen. :rolleyes: (They must be looking at the gallery)

Anyway, still looking good, King Mob! ;)

hey man, great work!! love the character design, especially the clothes, and the wrinkles. Btw, how are you planning on animating the clothing? i mean, converting it to maya cloth, or binding directly, or softbodies?
