Hi everybody! here’s a concept i had thought up for my entry …
Its was about a man who sees an imaginary world. He’s called by it while being dragged away by two nurses into his cell in a mental asylum …
It has been changed to the following, through the working process …
It still is my most formidable project and any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I’ll post my WIP here …
Nice idea. Though at the first glance at the drawing, I thought the man (nurse) in the front is eating that guys arm 
Or maybe that’s the intention? As if this guy in his hallucinations thinks the nurses are cannibals.
lol!! … but no, theyre just pulling him away … the concept is that the left half of the screen is the imaginary part and the other half is in the mental asylum, the real part (or couls it be the other way round??) …
so ive made a tree, a part of the imaginary world … the left branch wont be entirely in the picture so there’s no texturing on it after a point … im thinking of adding some vines and moss etc …
next, there will be a bed of grass on the ground … and some weird flashy foliage etc …
critiques please! 
The tree looks great so far! Trees are a tricky thing.
Actually, there was a nice tutorial on BlenderGuru a couple of months back about making trees using the Trees from Curves Python script. Here is a link. It may help you out a bit when you get to making the branches and leaves.
hey cool … thanks browntb … i’ll could certainly use that tutorial …
here the latest bit … ive added a vine around the tree and some grass … also increased the nor value of the texture on the tree … time to work on wierd, shiny flora …
got rid of the vine … it looked out of place … i started out making a rainforest type jungle, but now its become a little more dry …
i was running out of ideas for the forest, so i started work on the main madman character … heres what iv done till now … i’m leaving out the hands and feet for now … i think i’ll add them after the final pose is decided … what do you guys think???
i’m thinking of keeping this look on the madman’s face …
the nose job was a bitch! @#@ … i wonder how surgeons do it …
tweaked the face, added ears and armature … here are a few poses…
Looking good,however it seem there are some weight problems.Can you post a wire of the character?
heylos!
thanks clewer. ive posted a screenshot of my modes with edges … whaddaya think? this is just a just a basic character model, i’ll finish them up after ive assigned them their final poses …
finished with the two nurses … here are some screens …
worked on the poses … changed it to this one … i didnt use the original poses due to aesthetic reasons
…and i also remembered my drama teacher scolding me when i was little for going through a whole play with my back facing towards the audience …
The edgeloops look clean,but there is an important rule when you are modelling characters for rigging:every joint should have 3 edgeloops,so when the arm bends(for example)both the forearm and the upper arm kee their volume and shape.I hope you understand and this is helpful!
I didn’t examine the images throughoutly…You have all the edgeloops so dont mind this comment…I guess you it is all about weight paining now.
worked on hands, feet, hair and clothing of the main character …
not the most efficient model ( lots of triangles and stuff) , but i guess it looks ok …
And i also found a name …
tweaked the right hand, made it shorter … and the hair ofcourse!
i think i should leave it at that before i lose my mind … i’m going into a compulsive obsessive tweaking disorder…
Very nice =) I like the folds in the cloths. Did you model that by hand or use a cloth modifier?
Oh and some ideas for the forest…
-Some more trees
-Bushes
-I’d give the vines another try and make more of them
-animals in the trees? (birds, monkeys, etc…)
The character deforms really nice now and the folds in the clothes are very good too!
Great job!
Excellent work! I really like your style, especially for the heads/faces.
When doing your poses remember to keep an eye on the line of action. 3D is a lot different than drawing comic books, but the same principles apply. There is a fairly nice (although with Spongebob!) description here for action lines.
thanks everybody!!
@Asano : The clothes are modeled ( tweaking tweaking and more tweaking )
… In the beginning i thought of making lots of trees and vines and green … it seemed daunting, so i backed off into a drier setting … and now that you’ve prompted, i think i should get back to the original idea to give it another shot … and yes, there will be animals on the trees and the ground …
@browntb : Awesome tutorial man!! i really enjoyed reading through it … nice!! picked up priceless tips!! It’s simple to understand if taught, but so hard to realize the little things that make all the difference by yourself …
