WIP Model for an animated short idea

[Giles3]

Heh, that guys ultra cool :scream: Was it drawn then scanned and touched up or what?

(I think the facial hair looked good :shrug: but thats just my opinion )

[mattmos]

Looks very nice, like the charcter. I think the facial hair would work when he's got hair on his head to balance it out, don't throw it out just yet!

[stuf123]

Thanks guys. I didn't delete it just yet, just hid it. And Giles3, that was drawn and inked and then just scaned in. No touch-ups.

[stuf123]

Here is a run at the hair and beared. Not sure if I like it but...

The proportions in the face are a little child-like at the moment. Smaller mouth and slightly larger ears maybe? Looking good...

[stuf123]

Good call. Made the ears larger. Not worried about the mouth right now cause I still need to add the teeth and tongue.

If I was you, according to the quality and your drawing style you'd better create your short in 2d animation. Not image by image, but according to this great lesson (http://www.toddgallina.com/how/2.html). (read especialy the page with different expressives parts of the character to be animated).

:beer:

[Nicool]

Waht do you thinks about I proposed you? (if you don't know flash, I can help you! I know it right :) )

[stuf123]

Funny that you brought that up because I was planning on doing a few flash animations after I did this one.

Here is a little update on the hair and glasses. I like the hair a lot more now.

My host is bing odd tonight, if they don't come up just refresh. Sorry.

[Chris88]

Nice so far. Maybe this guy would look good cel shaded on the final render or something. Good work!

[lricho]

when are you going to give him that really cool little handlebar moustache like in the original sketch?

[stuf123]

I was thinking about doing that with a texture when I was done modeling.

[lricho]

right you are then. :D

[stuf123]

Worked on it for a little today. Got the socks done and fixed up the shirt and pants a little. Enjoy.

Finally had a little time to work on it. The goatee around the mouth isn't the finished one, just a place holder for now to see if the UVW map was ok. Enjoy.
