It has been awhile since I posted. Robert has been working with Chris and I over the past few months and I have learned a great deal.

 

Here is something I started in 2006 and it is time to get started again.

Thanks David, Steve and Robert! Over the next three weeks I want to model a couple of characters. A goblin and a knight. As a history nut, I have always loved the middle ages time period and fantasies of that time. I have had a story line that I would love to animate. When I bought my first animation package, on an Atari computer in 1990, I wanted to tell the tale of a knight, a goblin and a dragon and their friendship. I have lost all my notes of the story but for a while I will see if I can remember.

Long day, thanks Rodney and David! I will render a wireframe and up load. I am 3/4 done with my dragon. I used my horse i created a long time ago and modified it. I took the feet off a raptor or dinosaur on the extra cd. Getting close. The wings are from my cupid and bird from the extra files. Anyway looking for a dragon texture or scales now. Hope to have render tomorrow.

I started the rig on the knight last week and almost done with the bones install. I have to get the final orient like and roll like bones in. I have got most of the rig done on the dragon as well. Pausing to think about the wings at the present time. I have pulled a model I finished in 2006 and rig worked the horse for the knight. I am on vacay this next week so I hope to show more effort in the next few days.

Horse sized to the knight. Now to rig

Timothy - the Goblin (half Done)

Sir Harold the Knight (Half completed)

Alvin the Dragon (3/4 completed)

Melissa the Maiden (3/4) completed

Hector the horse (5% completed)

 

Then on to the forest set. I have trees from other projects and a rolling hillside.

 

This has been a fun diversion.

I decided a few days ago to remove the very basic rig I had in the horse and replace it with a new one. I used the tsm2 quad rig. In doing so I had to remodel several key areas on the horse. I modeled the horse in 2006 but wanted to use it for this sequence. I also used a custom rig for the knight, and well lets say I was not happy. I was happy when Mack announced 1.5 of the saucy rig. I re rigged the knight with the saucy rig and I have just started weighting (only the legs are weighted). So now I will finish the horse and knight. Over the next few days I will be uploading pics of the process.

I have been smoothing and cleaning up the characters and adding little things. It has been slow going. I have added a little hair and will continue to make tim into a goblin. I have found to do a close up render will help find the problem areas. I have not worked on the eyelids yet but will get there.
