Im trying to wrap my head around this. Bicycle Vehicle. Any examples out there? How are the animations and IK mixed for the pedals and handlebars? Like I assume I make a static sitting pose. Then make a kismet script that takes that and moves the arms to match up the hands to the handlebars and feet to pedals. Is it with…
When i say merge, i mean merge that little bit that is intersecting the larger shape there. Generally if something doesn't need to A. animate or B. be exploded off to get a clean bake, i try to merge it in with larger shapes and avoid intersections. You get a better bake result even if its 2 intersecting meshes in the…
Yeah, I know how horrible Maya is with skinning and while I am very familiar with spreading my influences around, I'm mainly thrown off by the model I made being an unmerged mesh, unlike any other model I've skinned before. That's my challenge so I brought it on myself lol Thanks for the input, I played around with the…
Thanks for the suggestions about the horse and rider. A co-worker also had suggestions about the amount of weapons on the design. If two people that don't know each other have the same opinion, that it must be a good opinion. My co-worker suggested taking the 3 swords off the back and and put a greatsword on this back. I…
Ouch, that kinda hurts to hear because I have acted this whole anim out, again and again and again and again. Lower down on this page I also posted the thumbs I drew in the planning stages. However, I did act this out again just now with these points in mind. I do see what you mean about the stress on the left leg, but I…
Thanks for the C & C's Finished the clothing and went back to the anatomy. First thing to fix is the legs. @aesir: Yeah I see that too I think its the abs. @WipEout: Raised the pelvis up a little and going to move the belly button up one ab. Hands are giving trouble will try to fix them. Didn't notice the knees thanks.…
There's nothing wrong with trying to develop a more unusual design to differentiate your work from the thousands of other orcs and fantasy creatures, but without a believable, functional anatomical base, it won't look fresh or interesting, it'll just look wrong. How is this orc even supposed to maintain a standing…
i'm going a gordon freeman direction. at least my opinion of it. which is a thin scientist in a neat biosuit. lee what do you mean by stylized? if you look thru the tf2 models, only some of them are crazy exagerated. only to suit the character. http://www.tfportal.de/tf2_classes.php i know its easy to just think "stylized"…
Hello, I'm new to 3D character modeling and gave myself the assignment to remake an already existing character. In this case it is Darius which look like this: Character art made by Hicham Habchi This character is quite bulky and that is my main priority to give that feeling in my recreation. This is what I have so far, I…
lol I always hear that the games industry is a competitive space, but I swear it's like watching maimed hamsters hobble around on the floor sometimes. Most of them are missing legs, another one is missing eyes, and one crazy hamster crawled off into a nearby snake cage because it was having fun exploring, and none of them…
