Here's a little clip showing a character I call Slopey. The clip isn't very long but it took me 18 hours to render because of Sub-surface scattering among other things:D . It was modelled in MAX5 and rendered in Brazil. Tell me what you think!

Here's a render from the clip:

Hey man, he's cool. I love him, especially his eyes. Animation is great, but unfortunately very short. I hope you do longer shot as soon as possible. No crits from me. He reminds me "Worms" games :thumbsup:

What a tease!! I was so into the beat of the music and his "Hey" that I expected him to go into some cool little song or something. Now I'm kind of bummed out.

Nice stuff. Do you have any more animation with this character?

Thanks for the comments!:)
I know it's short, it's just that it takes so long to render. I don't have any more right now, but maybe I could do a little more but skip the SSS to press the rendertimes down.

The character is cool...worm with big teeth...good idea.
You doing well with the sub-surface scattering...and the eyes are perfect.

He's one of those "ugly, but I want one" characters... :D

The SSS does seem to be a little odd for me though, I think it's because you can see his teeth before his mouth opens, just seems a little unnatural.

But then again, he's a worm with teeth who talks - so I suppose unnatural is in his nature!

Also wanted to say I love your work - the two 'simply' renders on your site are genius...

Fett grym.
Nu kan inga fransmän förstå vad vi skriver. Muhahaha.

Den är riktigt bra. Hur lång tid tog det att modellera och texturera och animera.

Great texturing Rivendale!!!

Did you try that tutorial from 3d MAX Magic? The texture, although green, looks similar to it

Awsome job!

Slopey's just wonderful mate, the song have been humming in my head since I first heard it earlier today

Can't wait for a longer animation, a new line on the "Hey" song perhaps?

Slopey for president! :thumbsup:
