2 hours of work huh. You’re pretty prolific:).

#5082

Yeah soft! You guys’ animation is looking pro. Nice celshading too.

#5083

Thanks but i wouldn’t go that far myself. Even i’m surprised how fast the modeling has gone here. First time i’ve started a head from scratch in a while. will probably spend much longer tweaking it until i’m happy :slight_smile:

#5084

Darklight- Looking good. :thumbsup:

igorstshirts- Thanks. Been keeping tabs on your bike anime progress. Some nice work you have done there.

#5085

:slight_smile: ok are you using LW? Can I send you the scene file and objects or do you need also the MB character file? Let me know so I can have SD upload to your ftp. thanks again:thumbsup:

#5086

Donshole is on Maya/MB, so you need to do a a LW skeleton weights rig for your character and export an FBX file. Let me know when you are ready for the FTP drop off. :slight_smile:

PS: Did you get my email with the login info for subdomain/FTP I set for you to host WIP images on our server?

#5087

Hey everyone. Just found out about your project and saw all the hard work and I’ve gotta say I’m impressed. can’t wait to see it when it’s finished. even watching the way you all have been progressing has been enjoyable. Really cool stuff.

#5088

Yea thanks again. I got the FTP info seems to be working out ok so far.

#5089

Tenacious- Thanks for dropping in and laving some encouragment like you did. :slight_smile:

Sllink- great to hear.

#5090

Hey no problem. Anytime mate. :thumbsup:

#5091

Another head done. :wip:
Just for fun…can anyone guess which head this was originally? :smiley:

#5092

Well, I’m stumped - from before I joined Shirow Project?

#5093

Love it especially the beard. However there is something not right either with this angle or the eyelids. Are they to thick, or are they not in contact with the eye or?

#5094

Donshole- hmmm…I don’r know…it might be before you joined but you should have seen him around before. I’ll give a clue. He’s a flyboy :slight_smile:

Aurora- you’re right, the lids are out of wack…this guy’s mesh is not really very nice for cleanup. It got some Quemloss or something applied which narled the polys. I textured him anyways cause we need heads! :smiley:
He’s ok for mid to distant placment.

#5095

Hi SD,

Please check the ftp for the trolley pull setup - it’s a hack, but works.

#5096

Donshole- Thanks, the MB file looks perfect. :buttrock:
I’ve sent it back to Colkai to finalize back to LW. I couldn’t find his readme on the scene setup so it’ll be easier for him since he knows what files he used to export this FBX.

#5097

Hi everyone!

Just getting back in town.

I owe Donshole an FTP upload. With the FBX character. Do I upload the locker model as well?
Any thoughts SD?

#5098

Hey there. Been a bit absent. I have just set up my new computer and reinstalling EVERYTHING is a pain in the … Just finding all cd’s was a task of monumental size.
On the other hand it’s so fast I get tunnelvison when I use it. :scream:

Any small props that needs to be made? I’m thinking of participating in the CGChallange and acually finishing this time, so I don’t want to be knee deep in a big mech when it starts.

#5099

Hi sllink, I’d suggest uploading character, room and locker so I know what space is available to the character.

#5100

Sllink- Yepp…FBX the set and the character together to save headaches for you and Donshole.

Zem- We could use some more lo poly props for the docks… Storage boxes, gas cylinders etc.
