Cartoon Man
 
This is my first original model without using a tutorial, I hopefully wanted to make a short ani with this but I'm not sure, still learning any CC is more than welcome

What I have so far:

try hitting the minus key... the "+" and "-" key controls them

not at pc with maya to tell you which one goes bigger and smaller but i assume minus key goes smaller

Eldwick 31-03-2006 06:41 PM

thanks

mmoore5553 31-03-2006 06:43 PM

no problem ..like the model by the way

pbman 31-03-2006 07:36 PM

nice model
looks like its of similar style to Family Guy which i like

Very cute character!! My only comment right now (coming from years of experience as a traditional animator) is as follows:

On the side view of the character, he seems unbalanced. Perhaps you can select all of the vertices/CV's above the knee area and move the whole character forward until he looks better balanced (right now, it seems he might fall over backwards).

I wouldn't mind seeing a wireframe of his face either!

Keep us posted and thanks for sharing!

Regards,

Thanks Jim I'll get to doing that, this is, as I said, my first orginal model so the tips are very helpful

Added arms and hands http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e2...ndoni/man4.jpg

And for the wireframe do you want the poly wireframe or the subD? Or should this thing be a smooth poly? As always I am :confused:

Eldwick 01-04-2006 05:38 PM

I think I might have made a BooBoo, should I not have attached all the parts together?

MattTheMan 01-04-2006 05:45 PM

no you did the right thing

Eldwick 01-04-2006 06:20 PM

hmm, Im really havin trouble tryin to texture this guy, cant find any good tuts on basic texturing... and it wont let me dl the one from the free tutorial section.

Rostoons 01-04-2006 06:25 PM

Are his hands correct? in the image they appear to be upside down

Eldwick 01-04-2006 06:50 PM

well the hand are supposed to be palm up, but i guess it doesnt look to good with the forearm

Some Guy 01-04-2006 10:25 PM

Looks good :)
With the hands i think the thumbs need to be on the other side of the hand.
