living toons - character - three

#1

Hi guys :slight_smile:
Last time I entered I didn’t have time to finish. Hopefully I’ll be able to do that this time [I failed to finish my beast of burden]. This contest seem pretty fun to me, and I’ve done a sketch. I’m still working on it so what you see below might not be what I end up modeling.
It’s not cartoony enough for me yet, and probably not for you either.

Hell, I’m excited. And you know what they say… never trust an excited swede :rolleyes:

Edit: And so the excited swede did it all wrong :rolleyes: … deleted and saved over the existing image, so… eh… you can’t watch the previous uploaded image. you’ll have to do with the new. I’ll try and not do stuff like this in the future :slight_smile:

#2

he nice to c you here again
Can’t c much from the scetch but good luck and finish this one…:bounce: :cool: :wavey:

Eey! Bunnyman :slight_smile:
Actually, I’ve scrapped the sketch that’s online right now… i’m trying to get that comic twist to the new one.

Good luck to you as well.

Rock on :buttrock:

#4

Good to see you again three! :smiley:
Get those vertices pumping!

#5

@ erilaz … good to see you to dude :slight_smile: I’m pumping my vertices so much i’m afraid they’ll crack :rolleyes:

#6

I have one small draw back though… i don’t know how to model heads :smiley: but it’s coming along. :slight_smile: i’ll sort it out as i go. another update tomorrow i guess.

cheers
:beer:

Okay… this is the… um… fourth time for me, this contest alone, that I’ll have to start all over again. The .max-file crashed… I get one hell of a funny message:
File Open Failed: E:\contest\me03.max

Sometimes… sometimes I just want to die.

#8

Okay… I’ve redrawn the sketch again… and now I’m hoping that 3D Studio MAX will hold up long enough for me to finish :slight_smile:
you never know though. right?

so, forget the previous sketches and ugly faces:

#9

Allright!
Finally some progress. I’ve umm, “finished” the head. I mean, when do you really feel finished with something?
I’ve still got to open my mouth, and put on some ears… oh yeah, eyes as well, if I’m not to wear my cool sunglasses :slight_smile:

Right now though, I’ve moved on to the body, urr… I hate do do legs.

For now though, I’ll give you head. :rolleyes:

#10

Allright. I’ve come a bit on the way now. Ehm… anyone’s got any good tips for the legs? I’m hopeless when it comes to those :slight_smile:

Crits people!

#11

KOOL!!:cool:

#12

@ -OZ- … Thanks :smiley:

Another update is on the way, but on the hands, the legs’ll have to wait… I don’t really know how to get them to look good… :confused: but in due time.

If you build it, it will come

#13

Is it that bad? So few people have replied and so many have seen what I’ve done… I need some c&c dudes, what can be improved?

:shrug:

/: 3

#14

I c you have been improving a lot. I really like the shape. but I’ll have to wait for the details.
Man you got it easy… You are bold^^"

:lightbulb Just a idea but maybe you should give him more shoulders I mean it is a bit flat now pronounce it more.

:wip: :wavey:

#15

Nice Start! :thumbsup:

I agree with Iquiniz.X. …waiting for more details to give critique.
Keep on working. :beer:

#16

:bounce: good start… i am also waiting for more detail before i can comment on something:wavey:

#17

within the detail a critique awaits:thumbsup:

#18

Oooh! Crits… let’s see here.

@ Iguiniz.X. … details are taking form :slight_smile: I’m currently on the head and trying to get that straight… and i guess you’re right about the shoulders. By the way… bold? :slight_smile: Thanks for the “improving” bit, I kind of feel it too, I’m trying my best.

@ KoRn_ART … Thanks. And the details are on their way… I’ll render out some new views as well, can’t keep staring at this dude in the front view anymore :slight_smile: Get’s boring.

@ DimitrisLiatsos … More detail on the way :smiley:

@ dark_lotus … <laugh> yeah, you’re right. Details! Details! <keep working>

Thanks to all of you, you’re right about the detail stuff and I’m right on it, like a bloodhound. The hands and the legs are the things that trouble me most right now… the detail will come when the whole basic Me is finished… that’s when I’ll start going deeper into my features :smiley:

Rock on!
:xtreme:

#19

Yay! More updates. hehe… I’m pretty happy with how I look right now… the only thing is one weird mesh-up around the chin area. I’m working on that right now. Otherwise, it’s as close to me as it gets, cartoon-like.

Enjoy

[sorry about the bad quality]

and the head from a couple of different angles.
