THis is my favorite strip of all time. Why didn't I think of this????? Anyway, looks good. Clean mesh. One crit though, hobbes' belly looks a little ponchy. If I remember hobbes is an agile hunter, alway stalking a fresh can of tuna... LOL. I can't wait to see this rigged and animated, please post a short if you can!

Cheers, Cheers,

I love it, I kind find anything to crit man. Your wireframe is great. I would like to know how you did the uv mapping though, maybe you could post, or send me your uv map to check out. That would be good, uv mapping is my biggest weakness.
Keep up that great work, i will check back often
There's nothing normal about normals. In FACT i think the are abnormal.

heh, actually i made him more lean at first, but then added the paunch a little later...
hey thanks antiant. i didn't do UV mapping on him though. i just selected the faces, and applied simple lambert material. i am quite lazy when it comes to textures...:p

no way, if you can get away without having to do it, all the better

Looking good, buddy! Calvin and Hobbes are one of my favorites. Its cool to see that they are popular in India too.

now, after reading some posts by Jay i realized that maybe, i could have used the proxy mesh as the geometry to be bound to the joints, rather than binding the smooth mesh. but, my problem as i told you, is that i have already broken the connection betweent the meshes. i checked whether the attributes are connectable directly in the connection editor, but it seems that i can't. is there any way of making the connection once again? i have made a few changes to the shape of the smooth mesh, but have not increased the number of vertices. i still have the proxy mesh.
some help, guys???
