    ..did a bit more today - boned him and tried to fur him again

    Oh he's gorgeous - I want to cuddly him.. can I, can I, CAN I ?

    Just about to head out for lunch ( Wedding Anniversary and the wife is buying ) but I was thinking of offering him to all for you to work on and improve...

     

    That cat on the stool reminded me that there is an image I created in Bryce 4, way back in 2003, that I wanted to do over some day. So now is my chance to do so in Carrara 8.5 and this time using the Fur options, etc.

    It was a silly homage image to "Donovan's Brain", created by Curt Siodmak, and made into both a great old radio drama, and a great film in the 1950s

    looking forward to seeing the Carrara version... smiley

    @FlashGarcia

    I had a play with modeling Cryll as you asked in the Hex Thread

    Started with one sphere then duplicated it... cut out the bottom and top polys and bridged them both together... then just extracted the arms, legs antennas and nose/mouth thingy..

    copied the bottom half of the bottom sphere and duplicated it to make his duds... boned him up and did a bit of weight painting..

     

    ended up with this!

    a fun project to do..

    Stezza,  That must be Cryll in his Macho, Marlon Brando, form. He gets that way whenever a Crylette approaches him. Great quickie modeling. Looks too like he is in opera mode and singing, "Figaro, Figaro" as he strolls along.

    I attached a screen capture of Cryll in Carrara. He is still needs some work in Hexagon, such as eyelids, eyeball retracting and sockets, and maybe a snout that can open. His trunks are a seperate piece. He looks like a toon character with his original spindly limbs and his Tor Johnson fat body.

    Hey Diomede,

    Here are some photos I found of Ginger Rogers on Google for toon model referencing and for those like PhilW who mentioned Ginger was before their time. Ginger was before my time too, but my Mom was a bit of a nut for dancing and she grew up watching the Fred and Ginger films and got me watching them later.

    Maybe Cryll will eventually dance with Toon Ginger.

    "Ginger could do everything Fred could do, but backwards and in high heels!"  Not sure who to attribute the quote to, but it is one of my favorites.

     

    In the old days, even the clowns could dance!  Enjoy.

    Looks great.  I always feel uncomfortable asking if you have boned your character, but have you?

    wow Stezza, you and Ted are ripping! Specially love your hairy creature thing a few pages back --- let me rephrase that - the one with bald bits.

    There's someone asking over at carrara cafe on how to model cartoony animals - you might be able to advise him/her
