Studio Aiko

Studio Aiko, in Israel, is behind the music video 'Hey' - one of the major influences behind this project. They've got a gorgeous mix of hyper-realistic and hyper-stylised stuff on their website. Thought everyone should check it out :)

UV mapping...

...is not as bad as I thought! In fact, I almost enjoyed it for a while...somthing must be wrong with me!
Just posting a little update, I have UV mapped two of the three flowers, with one left to go! I still need to fix the model slightly on the third one but I shall have the flowers all modeled and UV mapped by the end of the week hopefuly, then onto the treeeees! :)

Here is a quick screen shot of flower number 2 - the rafflesia

Young Floria Rig - Getting There...

These are, arguably, the three faces I make most often when rigging:

Still a work in progress. But getting there... slowly... painfully...

Environment stuff...

Helloooo

So... I havn't actually posted anything on the blog since joining team Innocence! 

Here are some screen shots of the flowers and trees I have been working on.

I am working on another two flowers at the moment so I shall post them in a couple of days :)

Why so serious...?

...because the eyelids haven't been rigged yet, and a smile without the lower lids would be creepy. So instead here are some sad, mad and thoughtful faces, all exaggerated beyond any shape I would actually use in animation but... hey, blendshapes are fun :)

Oh, and both models now have eyelashes and shiny eyes!

Textures.

So I went a little overboard on the wrinkles perhaps... Ah well, that's what the Smooth Tool is for, eh?

OK, after that disastrous first attempt to upload via Blogger video, I thought this was the best way.
