Thursday streaming results
The problem with doing 3d or animation or 3d animation (for me at least) is that the works in progress shots can be exceedingly boring. I spent pretty much the entire streaming day yesterday finishing up the tail end of the rig test anim, and am currently letting it finish up a timing render which didn't finish overnight because I forgot to turn Avi's particles off. Oops.
I'm aware the feathers are being awkward, they will get folded down in the detail run (I need to figure out how to do feather controllers, or if there's just a better way to rig them, they're doing my head in). These are from the end of the test, where the three of them have a quick conversation while turning away from the camera (because I wanted to end with the My 3 pose) which then pans around to be in front of them (I do also need some panning practice).
This post also appears on my blog.
If you're a new follower, these are my previous rig test animations:
And a pile of work on my pet universe if you're game XD
I've done my fair share of 3D modelling, so I know that this isn't something that's easy to do. I see you used Blender, that's what I use as well. Great job so far! I can't wait to see how it turns out when you fill in the color and textures.
Thanks! ^_^ The Dragonkin rig seems to be working out so I'll be churning out characters soon :D
Nice! Looking forward to it :D
@jeadu same here , I'm mostly a modeler although I'm quite read on all 3D so I'm a General Artist, it can be frustrating being a freelancer. Currently animation is my weakest point because of not enough exposure so to say.
i've seen some wing rigs around , but I dont use Blender, there should be many material floating around.
Following , GLHF :D , I will try to keep it short for now.
You're a 3d generalist? Nice :D I can model and texture all right (I hate retopo, slowly getting better), I LOVE animating! I'm not very good at rigging though. I can make some really basic ones and that's about it :)
Thank you for following :D
