sick :[

I may not be able to make it to class Thursday, and I apologize. My sinuses are killing me (throw in a sore throat, cough, aches and pains) and it's affecting my ability to read and focus for more than a few seconds, so if I start to feel better, I'll come in.

some links I found:

here we have a screen-shot, originally for simple documentation, but upon looking for ways to solve my biped pelvis problem and the center of movement, when the biped is selected, the little symbol is disabled that arturo said to try. (circled) So I'm not sure it will work..

a face only a mother could love :[

I attempted texturing in zbrush today, as I will eventually have to do some on my bear. I made a bird model this time, and launched the projection master. it's got a "symmetry" feature that'll paint both sides of your model IF you position it properly and don't move it around... HaHa needless to say, I moved that sucker around to marvel at the awesome "paint in 2D--> applies in 3D".. and poor Skylo (that's his name) looked like he got tied to a chair at the mercy of a six-year-old with some sharpies. Paint the pretty birdie! Here is my, erm, attempt:

back

from break. boring but nice. results of boredom: Zbrush trial download! I like it. it seems really nice for organic modeling, and easy to deform. that's as far as I got-modeling. so I took what was lying around my desk, which was a stuffed bear. and no, I'm not obsessed with bears, so he became a great dane thingy.

on hiatus?

spring break horray! well, I may or may not have internet access during the break, most likely only occasionally. so that means little posting. I will be editing sound in the mean time I presume; I'll post anything i can! byes! :D

some screen shots! these point to what I worked on for the majority of the day and got no where with, the imploding chest. ouch. and his facial deformation is off when he stands up. I like to think he's trying too hard to "suck it in".

learned how to make a tree too! (not pictured)

looking around for some textures.. darker than this one, but close.

ok, so I made a practice animatic for more rigging. There's still some kinks, like his chest kind of implodes when he stands up, and his chin ends up too small/narrow for some reason ( I think it's from the skull not matching). and you can tell my tree modeling skills are pretty much pofessional. ;)

just thought this was cool..
