Superhero

[julos]

A character i started modeling without knowing where it was going to lead me, finally it's a sort of superhero. I just rigged him (acs4) and plan to try some animations with him.
I might add a logo on his costume and change the color as well, i'm not sure yet. (he could be quite funny in pink for example) :)

This guy is awesome! Man you make me want to create a toon right now :D

This guy must be a blast to work with.

Top notch.

Thanks Kuzey, MarkJtaylor ! :)

Here is an update : my first animation : http://tutsillustrator.free.fr/animsuperhero_3.avi (divx/2,5mo)

two days to do just the animation, but i learned a lot doing it.
the rig is acs4 (great rig !)

comments and critics appreciated !

[julos]

Here is an update, i opened the hands when he opens his arms, i added a blink and a few eye movements, i made him raise his shoulders a little, and i accentuated some lipsync.

I'll probably move to something else now, i'm fed up with mickael's voice (i feel i've heard it a million times...)
Btw anybody knows a good tutorial on Motion mixer in Lightwave ?

I'm afraid the link needs some more work... ;-)

Great character, I love the personality and exageration.

I am just starting to learn how to create and model characters. The biggest problem I am having is getting the models wireframe to look clean. When I start adding features (eyes, nose, ears, etc) I start to get flaws and pinches. What is helping me is looking at examples of how other artists put there models together.

If it is possible for you to post a screenshot of your mesh/wireframe, I would appreciate. And while we are on the subject, are there any tutorials and/or examples that could help me build cleaner models.
