My Guy....


It's hard to get the suit to look like plastic....
Need to re-rig from beginning to fix weird weight painting problem.
But all in all using human IK worked pretty well for my first try with this character.
Should really fix the box though and maybe put a packed lunch next to him, and a flask.

Next, an animation test for the character.
Driving, sitting on chairs and a simple walk.

Life....It lives!!!



"Le Hero Sapling"

So this is my first attempt at making some plants / foliage for my project,
thought I'd start with the plant that gets the most screen time.
Simple mesh made in Maya then exported to Z-Brush for more details and painting.

I guess it turned out ok,
not too happy with the texture on the leaves or the smoothness on them.
they do look a bit too clean as well.

I need to set up a scene for all these objects to populate to tell if they actually go well together.
I'm going for an almost realistic look but tis hard.
