LOL nice work bro

ha ha ha ha looks similar to what i was thinking of when i saw the topic so keep it up bro.

i think its needs some things to make it even more girly. and also i think it needs to have a scary element to it. like totally cute but vicious as a pit bull ya know :wink:

maybe thats my ideas of what i would have done coming into play LOL so do what you like. but its looking nice

LOL

Cool… Screaming powder puff germs.

Thanks guys. Putting it on a great big powder puff is not a bad idea. Maybe I’ll try out the fibre script, though I haven’t been able to load the web page with the tutorial… :frowning: any helpful advice? <edit> maybe I’ll just try using static particles.

thats one of the best characters I’ve seen in a long time. I love it the way it is. Just add a simple background and you are set. My vote either way Im sure I wont like anything better. Very cool, it has a muppet feel to it and Im a huge fan of Jim Henson and his work.
Too freaking cool, great job.

This is supposed to be inside of a mouth at high magnification. <edit> (i took this pic out to save a bit of bandwidth)

the backgound needs to sink off in the distance more.

e.g. mist of texture.

oh and the feet don’t quite look like they are touching the ground.

wicked bro keep it up

How about now?<<edit>>

hmm, i dunno why maybe its the pink, but i like the first render best.

Ok I updated the last image. Added some objects to give it more depth and a couple of other things. I know what you mean though, the white background is kind of nice, but I think this looks ok now that it has a bit of depth.

Nice one Modron, def like the pink version more personally. Makes it look like the little blighter is nestled away somewhere inside a body doing whatever germs do. Just gives it a bit more context, even if I’m not a fan of the colour pink :smiley:

Thanks. I have rigged it with an armature system including IK solvers for anyone who wants to play around with it, here’s the zip. Please let me know if everything packed correctly. Ideally, it should have UV textures for the eyeball, and the skin. The eyeballs may or may not be set up to track two empties near the camera, I can’t remember lol. http://home.att.net/~yorik/DangerBoy/cootieIKexp2.zip

Yeah, all seems ok to me mate. Eyeballs are mapped, looking for the empty… Yup indeedee, two empties for the eyes :slight_smile:

Once again, nice work!

Thanks. The skin is there too?

I like the pink version to. But I wouldnt use so much pink mist on the floor and bottom half of your character. I think the floor and objects are great and should not be covered up. I would show the character and all the floor and objects and then start the pick blurr or mist just before the floor meets your background wall. A little hard to explain, but I think covering your model and floor up is a bad idea, its just overkill with the pink mist. Great work though Im sure I will vote for you either way.

Unpacked the data and got two jpegs - eyeball2 & germ1… Render looks good, just like the ones in this thread so I guess everything is good.

Thanks guys, and I will try turning down the mist and the pink ambient color.
