mouth_test_2


Here is the more recent chew test done using the knew set of blend shapes created. As you can see there is alot more movement around the face, which adds alot more realism to the action. Yet ash is still not happy and has asked for a bit more movement around the face.

Mouth test

This is a quick animation test i have done using the blend shapes made so far. Understandably Ash the director is not to happy with the lack of movement in the face, and as such these issues will be corrected and shown within another animation test.

Testy Testy

I have been steaming ahead with the blendshapes and am acumulating a nice collection of them. As i am nearing the end of the blend shape proccess i have decided to in my spare time prroduce a 'chew' cycle that should prove to me and our films director whether or not these blendshapes are ok for our film.

The love of a good texture!

I have completed UV'ing the old lady and am now ready for the next thing on my list, which would seem to be blendshapes. I will be giving myself A fair bit of time to produce these, maybe a week and a half possibly two considering the sheer amount we have!

My old girl is nearing the end

Here she is almost finished! all i need to do now is model the inside of the mouth then move onto UV's! You can also see from the images that the hair has changed. This was as it will be alot easier for me to put a texture on the hair as a separate mesh than to do it as part of the body mesh.
