I started this character out of frustration with dealing with other models, hah started another one. But this one is moving faster than the rest. Trying to decided what accesories to give him, etc.. polyed in max 5

Suggestions and comments welcome

Thanks for the post - the goal of him is to be used in the demo reel for a "10 second" <--- audio animation. I wanted to keep him somewhat cool, but simple. Thinking of just tossing a jet pack or something in the background as he is "going through the motions" Thanks again

Cool beans.

The only thing I don't like about him is I don't see how his jaw works. It seems like his jaw wouldn't come up far enough to work... Maybe some topology changes to accentuate a jawbone a bit more or pull the sides of the mouth in a little bit to give it a more plausable look.

Cheers,

This will pretty much be the scene that he will be animated in. I through in a 'Jet pack" hah for kicks, eventually maybe he will wear it. hhmm not sure yet.

He will be writing on the chalk board for sure, but for now I just put up my web address. ;) shamless self promotion. More to follow - he is rigged up, envelopes need adjusting, but time to hit the sack.http://www.wesburke.com/artwork/longface/03.jpg

rokin - thanks. Yah that is on the "to do list" :( Hah - I was looking for a good poly teeth tutorial, I know I had one in my favorites that was really innovative, but lost it. I am hittin the bike trails, and when I get back I should model some morph targets, etc for the face. Hah and possibly some textures. ;)

thanks again..

Here is another update: mainly I just added some morph targets and did a different pose. I hopefully will be off to textrues and work on his lips! hah I just noticed that they are definitely not formed right.
