This is a W.I.P that I have been tinkering with...He is still yet to be textured...He is fully rigged and waiting to star in his first animation...ha..he has some cool face expression blend shapes and his belly jiggles when he walks. and also his antennae wobble around as he walks..I kept this one kinda simple mainly for character animation practice... user added image

I like him a lot, what sort of texture you going for? I like him as he is but if you're going to texture him I rekon he'd look good kind of warty like a toad.

nice one,

Mat.

haha... thats cool..yeah i will try it out!...thanks for your comments..

I did have an idea for a story..but it seemed to big at the time. he has a house and a berry tree out the front. every day he gets a big juicy berry thats drops to the ground. one day a storm comes and leaves him with one berry and it rolls down the hill and he sets off chasing it...it takes him through a little adventure...etc etc...

the link to the (test render) house scene-1 is here
