WC 183: Funky smell - shots added bottom pg. 1

Hi dudes & dudettes,

here’s an image I made for WC 183 (topic is ‘decay’).

Funky smell


I used AO and lotsa bezier shapes (except for the mousetrap).

Because I set the camera as orthographic (for best toonedge results), I had to use some sort of forced perspective (especially for the mousetrap), both mousetrap and floor are actually going up in an angle of about 45 degrees.

1 of the 3 lamps is used for the shadows.

Thanks for watching,
Sago

I am curious how you have accomplished that. Great work!

EEEEEEEEEEE! excellent, excellent, i know how you pulled it off too, brilliant idea!!

and really funny too! great stuff man, you are a machine!

i would like to see a “blender battle” between you and robertt. two forces of nature with unstoppable sexual power, i mean unstoppable artisic power! lets see it!

Aw sick :]
I think I know how you pulled it off.
And that cheese reminds me of Nijntje and Plons (de gekke kikker) drawings.
P

Well i dont know how you pulled it off :stuck_out_tongue:
But i love it any way :smiley:

Awesome use of beziers. Probably the best one I have seen to date. Just perfect work and a great concept.

Hillarious!

Wait, wait… are you telling me that this was done with Blender?!?

Oh, I’ve got to see a wireframe of this!!

Excellent work, Sago. I’ve been waiting to see some effective combining of 2D & 3D in blender! Very nice. I’d be interested to see if it could be animated.

My thot: it’d be funnier if the trap were over the mouse’s neck rather than his arm, I think… and his tongue looks more like a bandana/tie where its located now (especially when the other one has a tie.) Otherwise, cool!

are the brown mouse’s eyes empty on purpose?

suppose you could get pretty much identical results if you draw shapes in gimp/photoshop and load as alpha png sprites (like flash animators do) into planes/rectangles used as placeholders? and use blender geometry as props/scene setup?

Great work!! I really like it! nice style :smiley:

I should give a try to 2D in Blender, it seems lot of fun!

Hi all,

here are some different shots of the scene. But it’s kinda hard to show, since most of it is flat. :smiley:


This one is also shot from a top angle (that’s why you can still see the top of the floor and the mousetrap in sideviews).

Wu - yeah, Robertt is very sexy. %|
And he’s got some skills, I would never try a battle with that guy. Besides, our works are way too different; a fusion between him and me would be much cooler. In a battle with Alltaken/Ecks-fusion we would kick their ass (cause their styles just look too much the same…)

Vliegtuig - Thanx, the cheese was the only toughy. I just couldn’t get it to look good.

BgDM - Beziers are cool. Of course you can pull this of with many other (2D) programs, but it’s good to know Blender also has the ability. Even though it was pretty subtle, the AO gave it that little Blender extra.

mzungu - Animation would work just fine (I know I’m gonna give it a try). Turn off the AO and there’s not much worries about rendertimes.

I also wanted the trap over the neck, but I couldn’t get it to work on time… oh well. And about the tongue, it’s a cartoonfigure; those are sometimes gifted with the ability to lick their own ears. :stuck_out_tongue:

Uhm… I call 'em glasses. :expressionless:

Yes, there are most likely different ways to do this with Blender. But at the moment this was the obvious way for me.

venomgfx - Yeah it was fun making! You should really give it a try. And because it’s with Blender, you have lotsa extra options (combining 2D + 3D).

Cheers,

Sago

Very nice work, I couldn’t picture you as female.

wha…?

No JackJunior,

I’m as much a female as you are a non-spammer *

  • only 33 posts today? I guess you’ve just started…

I did that once so your going to burn me for it? IT WAS A BET. It’s not JUNIOR!!! It’s John. It irritates me to be called a spammer.

That was 3 days ago… and this day alone you already have 35 posts.

A stupid bet.

Keep acting like this, and I’ll keep calling you JackJunior. hey, I wrote it with capital J’s, so stop whining…

Already 35 posts today? You are a spammer. Oh wait, just changed into 36…

Stop poluting other people’s threads.

Are you VERY angry yet??

Do I sence a troll lurking about?!?

1, 2, 3,… Acting like what? I don’t get it, what am I doing that’s pissin’ people off.

Edit: Thanks Stefan, I don’t get it, spamming is not posting a lot, it’s advertising or posting non-subject matter comments on purpouse.
