6 Monsters

Keep on keepin on! -Steve

Amazing!

Keep in mind that this is just the body rig, and that the facial rig is not complete yet (he’s also missing his hat). I’m glad you guys like what you see so far!

Hey! You have a plane to catch!!! -Steve

Yep… I’m writing this from my house before we all start the first leg of our trek. Can you tell I’m addicted to the blog?

yes, I can tell. -Steve

Very cool Floyd! I love it! I know I’ve said it before but I can’t wait to see it moving.
Does it have Stretchy IK? Are you using Belndshapes to deform the geometry or mel scripting and influences? Anyway, I really like it.

There’s all kinds of rigging magic going on with this guy. Stretchy IK, wire deformers, blend shapes, voo doo, etc. Chris can explain it better than me. I’ll see if I can get him to post.

Wow! Can you fix my crotch area? I have some weird polygonal issues going on down there too. Some nerds have confused it for 8 sided dice! But that’s a story for another day. Nice work.

As usual! The bar is being raised on this 6 Monsters project!

this is basically the first time i have rigged a character like this, it was an incredible challenge and the results are quite pleasing. basically this is a layered system, very simple and very fast i started out with a base rig for deformations then started layering systems on top of it the result is what you see before you.

FLOYD AND GANG:
EVERYTHING I’VE SEEN ON YOUR POSTINGS HAS BEEN AWESOME.
THIS IS SO MUCH WORK AND DETAIL.
YOUR FILM WILL BE INCREDIBLE AND I WISH YOU CONTINUED SUCCESS AS YOU TREK WITH YOUR SIX MONSTERS!
TALK SOON!
YOUR CARTOON PAL…… JEFF
