This is my entry for the cgchat comp currently going on. Im pretty much done with the lowpoly stuff, Im gonna try to optimize a bit more so I can get the umbrella in there. Im actually gonna attempt a normal map, but if it looks like shyt, Ill go old school. Hope you like!

concept:

Jeff Parrott · Nov 2004

That rocks Ghost. I honestly thought this was something about poopinmymouth. The concept is great. I'm anxious to see what you have going on with the texture.

Sean McBride · Nov 2004

hahahaha yeah thats great!!! Good luck to you.

I thought it was going to be a OC recording of techsmith and poopinmymouth or something

TechSmith · Nov 2004

Hey , that's exactly what I thought too!

All I can say is OOOO... squishy! Can't wait to see the finished model.

MAUL0r · Nov 2004

i was thinking of homestar runner of course... but i like the direction your taking it in.

almighty_gir · Nov 2004

holy frick, i thought it was a sketch that ud painted or something!! thats amazing. so very cool! gl man, if theres anything better than that itll be worth being beaten by it :O

adam · Nov 2004

haha this totally rocks. I thought this was a post about poopinmymouth and it turns out to be something better! HA!

Awesome, original, can't wait to see how it turns out.

Wells · Nov 2004

well, thats the first coil of crap i've seen modelled. awesome stuff!

Scott Ruggels · Nov 2004

Wouldn't that be "Poopmonger"?

IceWolve · Nov 2004

Haha that is awesome, i realy like the concept and the model so far, cant wait to see it textured.

Mojo2k · Nov 2004

he would be a poopvendor, a poopsmith would take the poop and use it to make stuff, like chairs and horseshoes and swords, and really from the topic i was thinking poopsmith from homestarrunner looks great, tho

Daz · Nov 2004

Ahah that is awesome Josh! Good luck with it.

poopinmymouth · Nov 2004

awesome! Great concept, and great model!

gauss · Nov 2004

yeah, this is refreshingly fun and well designed out--i love the execution of the beetle and the drinking straws are a very nice touch.

Josh_Singh · Nov 2004

Glad you guys like! This project is seriously fun to work on. I got the u.v's all laid out today so Im gonna start textureing. Im gonna try for a sort of hyper-real style with mixes of cartoony and elements of realism thrown in. They are also mapped so they can be normal mapped (no mirroring or sharing u.v's for those who dont know) so Im gonna try Max 7's normal mapping pipline, along with turbo smooth and the paint sculpt tool.

FatAssasin · Nov 2004

Good stuff man. Very creative.

oDD · Nov 2004

hahaha , great. very cool idea.

dejawolf · Nov 2004

is it ok if i say it looks like shit? :P
great work

Silva_Spoon · Nov 2004

Great stuff! Aint that where poop gets his lunch everyday?

Sparky · Nov 2004

That sure came with extra poop, now didn't it? :P

RageUnleashed · Nov 2004

Poop w/nuts!?! Everyone KNOWS it's supposed to be Poop w/corn!! ;D

Great work, very cool stuff, my only comment about the concept would be give the fly guy a chef's hat and apron, rather than just a wifebeater and whitie tighties.

I think the 'poo model' needs to twist a little more in the last 'loop' if you get my meaning.
The fly guy should also carry a poop scoop to dish out the goods.

Josh_Singh · Dec 2004

Sup! sorry It's been so long since an update, My computer at home couldent handle the normal maps, so I had to do all that stuff at work after hours.
so currently the normal mapped stuff is about done. Im open to any tweaks or suggestions you may have, though right now Im focusing on the rest of the stuff which is not normal mapped. ( the fly skin, cart and rest of the beetle.)
I hope you guys like it!
The beetle is based of Ontius alexis. It's a cool looking dung beetle. See I learned something! haha.

oDD · Dec 2004

comming along good, i especially like that texture on the green part of the bug.

One thing that hurts my eyes is that purple color, it goes ugly against the background and against that green part.

Damn i hope you understand what i'm saying. Keep up the good work.

Josh_Singh · Dec 2004

yeah, the purple is just a base, It will end up darker with warmer tones in the highlights. Kind of like in the concept.
glad you like it.

Daz · Dec 2004

Hah sweet man. Gotta love the 'spatter' Maybe have some splashed up against the back of the beetle. Is there a bump map on him right now or something?
