Ah, finally one that works!

oh dang, what did you use to motion capture?

I just loaded a file I found :P It was pretty easy. (I didn't capture this myself or anything).

Portia is looking fantastic, but I miss the drawn work of her.

Awww, thanks :) There are a few reasons why there hasn't been any drawings lately but the biggest one is that I don't have a working scanner any more :/ But there's so many better artists out there, where the the 3d isn't so saturated. Plus animation is more in line with my lofty, secret ambitions. Maybe I can get a Portia series picked up by Adult Swim or something :D (Yeah, I wish).

I have a feeling that's going to look even more awesome when everything is fully animated. I love her look!

Impressive and very beautiful

I can see a bit of clipping around the hips and breasts when she bends over.. still needs work, nice attempt though.

"Still working out some issues with the setup but I wanted to see her moving."

:P

Must analize your spine to see just how strong it is.

Must be like high strength steel to keep from aching. :3

kefka989,whats the x-ray say about her spine's power leve?

My scanner only goes up to 10.

I need a better one.

;.;

i guess we'll never know how strong her back is

;.;

awesome work, looks really smooth
though i still love the model of Portia you used for the 'Bad Dog' animation. mainly because her face and overall model looked really beautiful :) but this continues to look better and better :D
keep it up!
*tanek*

Very impressive! Portia's never looked so lively. :)

oh oh I caught clipping, them arms be phasing through her waist!!!!

Heh, but really, impressive job with rigging your character! Did you use skinning, or physique?

Skin. And thank you!

By the by, if you haven't already, I highly suggest this site.

they've taken hundreds of free acs animation files and converted them to bip, from resting, sleeping, to cartwheels and movement.

Its all bade on studies of human movement. :3

Oh cool! Thanks :)

Hey my pleasure to help a fellow max user. As well you definitely want to see these!

greeble and city/building generators, a definite necessity for those who need a quick building solution!

Hope to see more of your work and maybe even trade a few ideas thoughts and pointers about 3D!

Keep up the good work!

Wow, that's really cool! I think only the last one might be useful for what I my needs are (fantasy/medieval period kinds of buildings) but I had no idea this kind of thing existed at all. Environments are a challenge for me too so any help I can get is huge!

hey if you ever need help environment wise, pop a note to me and I'll be happy to help out, either by making stuff or sharing materials, textures and what not!

Thank you! Perhaps I will.

Intresting...

Just when I see it , I think in a BHV file, before of read the comment. For some reason, the movement in that files looks something nervous. Awesome work, like always.

Maybe I should've been more clear on what this is. I grabbed a motion capture file and threw it on her, rendered and uploaded. No attention was paid to clipping, hands, jitters or any of that stuff :P I just wanted to show *something* with the new mesh moving.

The's an amazingly ajile girl in spite of her ballast.

Well done.

this still looks fantastic.

i just love your work ^^

Oh cool! I have missed your art and stuff soooooooo much! Hope you're getting back into the swing of things! We miss you, Portia!!

Its still pretty smoothed out regardless :) I think you've come a long way in terms of your old 3d stuff till now. Can't wait to see what the future brings from you with your works, Portia.

Things are coming together nicely. Its great to see you back. I know you've need greatly missed

I posted last a week or two again :P But thanks!

I know. Though still great to see any work from you as its been a long time and your Avatar does happen to be one of my faves. Loved all your art work for a while. Seeing new things from you is wonderful. I'll be keeping my eyes pealed for any new things.

Not bad for a test. Looking forward to seeing progress

Ahhh... I was honestly hoping for a different variety of stretch!

I am so glad to see your work again.

It's such a nice pace to see that Voluptuous sex goddess to brighten my day.

At first I was surprised by the lack of motion in the breasts, then I read the newspost. This is awesome and I've been so looking forward to another Portia project ever since Project X.

Good animation, but I would suggest a lighter back ground. It's hard to see anything with dark clothing on a dark back ground.

Good point! And the animation isn't mine, just some motion capture. But thank you :)

Good to see more of your work. I'm a big fan.
