Hey guys, as you can tell by all of the time I have been putting into the torso, I have been avioding the legs user added image

But, I ran out of stuff to do on the torso (for now) so I decided to goahead and start on the legs. Let me know what you think, thanks,
Brian

Tomorrow I am going to ad the bones and get him ready for my final pose. I could ad some accessories to his legs, but with the pose that I am using (down on one knee) you, will not see much of them anyways. Can't wait. user added image

Hey guys *yawn* its 6 in the morning. user added image

I stayed up all night last night, pulled an allnighter... I saw Lord of the Rings at the midnight show!! It was fantastic, can't wait to see it again. Why did I stay up all night tonight?? I wanted to create a realistic shader for my Flame Thrower. Please let me know what you think of this... ZZZzzzzz... I spent alot of time on it, It is particles with a runtime expresion for scalePP and The shader is all Procederal!! (sorry I can't spell this late, err, early) THere are no textures out side of Maya, it is fully animated, Please let me know what you think,
Thanks,
Brian

After Viewing my fire, do you think it was worth the hours I put into it?

oh yeah, since it is all proced. I could easily make it B&W, do you think it would look better black and white in this scene? I kind of think it is better color, just because it ads contrast to the B&W, but I thought I would ask for your opinion. THanks,

Give all the Doctors cancer and see how fast they come up with the cure.

I agree about the arms, at first I intentionally made it like that, but after your comment, I decided to go ahead and make them Proportional. Thanks, I will post an image later when I can. Thanks,
Brian

First I need to finnish the skin weights and stuff on the bones befroe I can add everything together. user added image

Not fun I am now having issues with that. Things are going slow on my model lately, Maybe because I am going off of no sleep. I will update when I get a chance. Thanks,
Brian

Hello, I did some major rework on the arms and legs, Had to make the joints like that because I really don't have the time or feel like taking the time to paint skin weights right now, so I thought that this would be a good solution. Do the arms/legs look any better?
