[Riot Art Contest] - Annie
polycounter lvl 20
I am going to try an Annie model. I'm hoping I can fit in time for Tibbers as well. We'll see!
So my concept so far is "Annie the Pooh and Tibbers Too". I might add a teddy head in the small stuffed animal as well. I'll be finishing the color version and a back view over the weekend if anyone has any suggestions. Left room on the right for back view. I'll be polishing the grayscale version a bit more as well to hopefully nail down as much of the design as possible in 2d.
Thanks for stopping by!

Here's the finished color version. On to some sculpting.
Roughed out Annie. I started Tibbers. I'll post some progress on him in the next day or so.
So keep her the size she is and essentially add a suit/costume on her
loving the design direction though haha. Great idea (almost thought it was calvin and hob's at first!)
DiegoTeran - I know what you mean about how it should read as a costume not as a fat Annie. I think what I need to work on a bit more is her proportions as they are a bit too squat at the moment. I probably won't go with a baggy costume though. Thank you for the feedback. I'll be doing another pass on her next and adding more elements of the costume.
First rough pass on Tibbers:
Hopefully she looks a bit less chubby and more like a costume.
Pretty much done with Annie's high poly work. I want to work on the face a bit more and I forgot to add a couple little things like ties for the backpack. Included a polypainted version as well. Not sure how much of hat I'll use in the final texture but it should be useful as reference.
Slosh - thanks! I hope you can finish your entry.
Also, ignore that AZELTA guy, he's even more obnoxious in real-life and I have to sit next to him all day, haha.
And I agree with slosh crit about the mini tibbers face.
DiegoTeran - thank you for the feedback. The face isn't quite ready for prime-time but at the same time I am not aiming for innocent.
Abrvpt - thank you for the feedback as well!
slosh - Thanks! Yeah I think you are right about the mini Tibbers fur. I resculpted that and will be doing a final pass on Annie this evening and hopefully call her done. I was curious if you plan on making a separate texture for both Annie and Tibbers? I asked in the Q and A but didn't get an answer about it. My guess is in the game they would both be on separate texture sheets.
Thanks again for the feedback!
Tibbers coming along:
Did a paint over for the changes I want to tackle. Not sure how Tibber's head got so large :-P
So I realized I had smoothing turned on for Tibber's lower teeth so his poly count was off. He is quite a bit lower. I might add some more edges here and there to smooth some corner out.
Been working on textures. This is the diffuse so far. I baked out a global ao, an ao and an overall gradient and composited them. I did some hand painted lighting as well. Color up next. Diffuse only render:
Been working on the skeletons as well. I hope to have them rigged this week so I can start testing some poses. Let me know if you have any feedback.
Cheers!
Cheers!
Textures are looking great so far. keep it up!
Mostly done with Tibbers.
Hoo, I got it entered! Here are the images I ended up with.
I was having quite a bit of fun with some morph targets but wasn't sure how to include those in the submission stuff but I'll post them here later. I had some other poses as well. In the end I ended up just under 11k triangles for everything and one 2048 texture. I want to add a sketchfab screenshot as well. Maybe tomorrow.
Congrats to everyone that got their entries done! I am ready for vacation.
I've been enjoying checking out all the finished entries.
