Hi there :),
so, I’m trying to make a Larry the cucumber-like character…
any criticisms would be appriciated (like, is he proportionally identical to the “real” thing?)
Rigging is still new to me , any help on that would be appriciated as well (I would assume animating a stretched sphere wouldn’t be too difficult? - how would I rig it, exactly?)
oh yes, and I’m not quite sure what textures he needs (help on that would be appriciated too)
Thanks
haha cool man, he’s got a lot of personality. would be cool to see a little 10 second animation test of him hopping around.
the shader is quite simple, but i think it suites the model.
maybe try turning on AO and make a bit brighter render, see what it looks like. might add a bit more depth to him.
keep up the good work
haha…is he free to eat…
Well most cucumbers that i’ve seen or eaten are longer and are slightly curved that its a bit unnoticable

Good job so far!
I cant give much help about rigging sorry
Very nice! You’ve really captured his personality in those expressions.
As far as proportions go, you’ve very close. I think he should be a bit taller - do it by extending the base not the top though.
ok, thanks for your crits guys
I’ll make an animation when I’m done with the rigging
hmmm… is Larry rigged with armatures? or curves! (I’m guessing the latter)
here’s what I’ve done thus far : (oh yeah, AO doesn’t seem to do much for me - thanks for the suggestion though Daniel 
)
I have lengthened/ compared Larry to his former self
… he looks like he’s losing some of the character he had previously though
please let me know your crits on this
thanks
He’s rigged with lattices. Looks pretty good, but he needs the buck teeth. 
yay veggie tales well yer looks good, the shorter version seems more like larry, are you gunna make the larry boy version?
Actually, the short looks too short, and the tall looks too tall. XD Try for half-way.
Buck tooth.
