Another comp... Bunny Wabbit Archer

- FredH -

I thought I would enter another comp again just for some practice. This is for Cgchat's comp #28.

Here's the initial sketch:



Here's the final concept:


Model coming sometime before the 25th of July.

Very sexy

You working on anything, professionally?
You're profile doesn't give much away.

Rastus

looked better when it had more of a rabbit head

but very nice concept

Asherr

i think the mostly human face works better. it gives the character an identity instead of just being a generic rabbit archer furry.

my one crit would be that the head seems a little too small. (hehe scarf of head hiding )

KDR_11k

Your equipment list lacks "lucky bunny's feet (2)".

Crash

Nice. Fan. Visste inte att du var svenne. :P

Get modelin.

shotgun

i agree,
the first is more interesting than a "chick with bunny helmet" which ive prob seen a 1000 times already
why not make it a really sick rabbit.. no human features. less commercial but more original, i suppose

either way,
how can you make a rabbit and not put clocks?
must have clocks!

PeteJ

looks fine to me. a bit of a fresher approach than normal.
and i can *so see some rabbit nipple there.

sumus

Well I have to come out of my lerking to comment, WOW now thats cool.

the Concept feels very fresh, I perfer version 1 but I like the extra detail in verson 2

Blaizer

hehe Fred again in competiton, that's cool, i didn't know you were participating.
Like always you do great concepts. I will take a look at your competitors over Cgchat!

good luck!

moose

pretty!

gauss

nicely conceived! looking forward to seeing this fleshed out.

vahl

really nice work fred, can't wait to see it in its full glory !!!

LazyBoy

Damn thos drawings are actually quite sick yeh the second set of sketches are most like i do..heh...yeh they add a certain edge to the character it kinda personalises the character instead of the first one it just looks like a plain bunny with some weps easily forgettable

while the second one kinda makes the bunny look more human thats what gives her the edge it kinda helps the viewer maybe identify the charcter more because of that human trait i don't know i can't really artciulate my point properly but i think the second one is better big thumbs up.

Makkon

Although I think it's a matter of opinion, I think the first sketch had a better face while the second one looked prettier. I dunno, just another choice of a buny chick or a furry. Hard choice if you ask me, odd or universly hated. I'd go with the first face with perhaps the personality of the second. besides, you're creative enough, you can give a bunny human characteristics without making it look..... wierd.
Great work, man, can't wait to see what you do with it.

Showster

I love your concept work so inspiring, my sketching is quite poor atm your stuff rocks! glucky

peanut™

Yeah, i seriously lack good sketching and concept development.

Hope it wont show too much when i look for a job. :yikes:

Darksun

Lookes awesome. Though I would agree the first head looks way cooler. It also ties the large feet and furr together much more. Now it looks like a woman wearing a bunny suit.

Slash

cute! cuddly! me like! But as others before me mentioned, the first head looked better. How about a wabbit face with a human mask?

- FredH -

grrrr, ok ok, I made a rabbit head hehe Thanks for the honest feed back (even if I hate you all now:p)

Here's the base model along with the armored version. I will finish tweeking it once I start on the textures. I think I might try some normal mapping for a few areas. She is at 3800 polies thus far. I will try to reduce her a bit so I can make her very furry in the end.

Rorshach --> Professionally? I was an Assitant Modeler at EA, but now I am in Shanghai China, looking for work:)

KDR_11k --> I did not think I would need to go back in and change my concept sheet, but, you are right, I probably missed one of the most important items!!:( How could I forget... the Lucky Rabbbit foot!! I should probably put my head down in shame heheh

Crash --> Unfortunately, I never learned Swedish or German. I only know French, English, and a bit of Mandarin. I hope what you said was nice:)

Everyone Else --> Yes, Rabbit head is in! Actually, I tried both versions and I have to agree, the rabbit head keeps her looking more natural. If I had the more human face, the rabbit feeling was far less. Thanks!

killingpeople

nice! looking forward to seeing the end result. you're sexy.

poopinmymouth

Looking awesome Fred. I like how you always have so many interesting bits going on. Your models are rarely water tight meshes, they always have nice dangly bits and overlapping details. I give it the thumbs up! Now get to texturing!

ColdElectric

Actually.. The real rabbit face described in the first picture would look a lot better to fit in the entire character model than the human one.

- FredH -

Here's the base model before transfering it to the normal map. I'll add the fur and clean things up on the sheet once it's in trusty old photoshop.

vahl

very cool translation of the concept in 3d, as usual, I love the style you got in it...and happy to see that the rabbit head made it

Jes

Where's the CARROT??
Nice model - the wabbitty style's very consistent, and I agree that the wabbit head fits better..

"Be VeWy vewy quiet. I'm huntin' Wabbits!"


(Sorry 'bout that, had the vw's reversed, And yes, it's Elmer Fudd. >.< )

PfhorRunner

what the hell is "wevy"?

Looks awesome!

KDR_11k

Pfhor: Either that sarcasm just went over my head or you don't know who Elmer Fudd is.

MoP

I think he meant it should be "vewy", KDR...

Fred, this is turning out great! I really really like what you did with her loincloth in the high-poly version. Nice folds!

Ruz

should have been 'vewy vewy vevy' I presume

beserkevalk209

nice but you might want t o fix the knock kneed thing going on in the legs (model sheet)canse the rigging may turn out odd---good job!

KDR_11k

Hm, the elbow looks a little bit too thin...

Slum

elmer fudd said "vewy" as in "very" with a speech problem.

anyway, really nice looking. I love the detail, and those shoes should be the next nike-style. I can't wait to see it textured.

JeremyaRandall

whats this about knock kneed? I dont see it and or understand the concept.

- FredH -

Sorry guys, I had to put this one on hold because I have to save my energy for two upcoming Art Tests.

If you haven't already seen the final entries for the cgchat comp, you can find them here: http://www.cgchat.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=72

There were many cool entries this time around:)

ahh the knockkneed thing was the legs:knees slightly go inward as he standing in prone position and in your orginal model sheet, which will mess up your model if you ever rig it, you just need to strighten the alighnment of the knees to alighn with thighs/hips a little and thats it hope that helps,
