More from Deezlberries
A quick render of one of the characters I've been working on. Kind of one of Deezlberries alter egos, but I picked the name Grebble cause I guess he reminds me of the critter from an old episode of amazing stories.
Yes, a few people have pointed out his resemblance to Mushu from Mulan and there's a number of reasons for this: Firstly a) He's also a cartoon oriental dragon... but mostly, b) I modeled him on Mushu, because c) I happen to like Mushu.... Mainly because d) I have a weakness for wizecracking diminutive sidekicks. =OD
Hopefully ill get him moving around soon, assuming another one of the other characters and animations i have on the go doesn't steal my attention. =O)

Ironic you should mention that, I was fiddling with Brazils velvet shader but couldnt get anything useful out of it. Im just using the standard shader set to phong, but the effect is mainly down to brazils global illumination. I used a dark blue directional light to fill and a sunny creamy yellow spotlight for highlights.
Your the reason ive been fidling with shaders all this week, I covet that plush shader, but the free verson of simbiont doesnt let you tweak the settings...

I got the plush shader at:

The free version doesn't even let you tweak the colors?
Anyway, your modeling more than makes up for the shader. Very impressive work. I may need to get you to show me a thing or two about rigging in Max. Never been able to do that.

Yeah, thats the shader I got, but nope, the free version doesn't allow any editing.
Its gotten me into shaders though, which im well overdue on. The skinning is all done vertex by vertex, which is possable cause its a low poly model. You can just add turbo smooth over the top of the skinning and it does interesting things to the creasing and tearing which i can then pretend are intentional ;Op

I guess im used to doing game models - PS2 usually topped out at about 3000 a character. It's how I get away with using a fairly low specced laptop to do this stuff. Low poly models and animations that are about 300x300 pixels in size. I can pretty much play him back in realtime, at least till i start slapping meshsmooth on =O)
I was JUST gonna say that'd looked like Mushu.
But he's too purple on the scaly skin to be recognized.
If it was RED instead of purple, then... It'd almost get to say it IS Nushu, hands down, right?
I'm bringing the point all hands down that the character model MIGHT BE a cross-refrence of Mushu, just to tell by LOOKING at it. Do you follow?
Do you follow, or is it simple enough?
