Oh ok thanks Ryumaru, i'm gonna go start looking for some such erasers now.
Also, sorry for mispelling your name, finger slip

[Ryumaru]

adarias: haha i know, i just realized how much i like the addative and subtractive methods in my work.
turbo: hah, dont worry about it.

[Rox]

But Ryumary looks so cute.


So, I hit a temporary standstill in our current school project. And it was sunday, so I figured I should try to make something completely unrelated. And so I did. Not finished yet, I hope to get it all shiny and textured and normal mapped when I have the time.







I also kinda hope I can get the reloading mechanism animated. I've got it all worked out, in an unnecessarily primitive fashion. I really like unnecessarily primitive. A while ago at school, I made a sketch of a pistol driven primarily by gears. And as far as I know, it'd be functional. Pointlessly crude, but I love it.

Oh snap, I've been counter-polygon'd!

That looks great. Any plans on texturing her?

[Locrian]

yeah.  Still getting a feel for rigging and uv mapping.  But I want to try to go as far as I can with her (3rd base at least) before begining a new character.  Then I guess I'll have to look into zbrush and normal mapping and blah blah.

[Rox]

Eh, you don't HAVE to bother with the normal maps. Sure, it's all high-tech and awesome details and saves polygons, but really... Plain diffuse + specular maps can still look great. And it takes less time!


[edit] Actually, I'm just trying to get you to texture it as soon as possible... [/edit]

[SplatPixel]

great character there Locrian. adding texture is not fun tho... heh

hw for my texturing class

[Helm]

oh nice going! This is the first piece I've seen by you with good anatomy.

[SplatPixel]

heh, thanks man

heres a small update, i really don't feel like looking at this damn thing anymore....
