Ray's WIPs
Re: Ray's WIPs
Softimage only. Planned on creating only the base mesh in SI and then move it over to ZBrush, but then the basemesh ended up being so detailed that wasn't even necessary anymore xD
Details on the rock he's sitting on are ZBrush though.
Thanks Nizar, I'm pretty sure I'll continue working on the Hank character.

Re: Ray's WIPs
If you're "merely" talking animation, I guess Hank would be a better starting point than the Thinker as it is too realistic, which makes animating it convincingly that much harder (the viewer expects more...).
The cartoony nature of Hank provides way more room for "error". ;)

Thx Shadow.
Been a while ..
Animation I agree Hank would be easier.. and more fun..
anyway got sidetracked again but managed to "finish" this one...
(Picked up an old model here)
Preview (see Moderator edit below)

Missed this one earlier -
Moderator edit: removed the img tags from the Preview, as having a smaller preview of a picture under a nudity warning completely defeats the purpose of a nudity warning, as its smaller size doesn't make it less nudity... And yes, now there is a tag-less url floating around... - HB

C&C welcome, especially how to make the face more female. Not sure yet what I'll do about the hair before I drop her on the turbo squid.Nudity warning: [ Show ]

Closeup of eyes, lighting & material doesn't really work for this resolution

Re: Ray's WIPs
Eyes are really nice. I like it very much.
Re: Ray's WIPs
Hirazi, I figured thumbnails would be an ok tradeoff between a rather text-heavy picture thread and a fully SFW thread. Going to make them a bit blurrier, hope that's ok.
Cheers Nizar!

Re: Ray's WIPs
@rray - don't get me wrong, I'm not doing this to annoy you. I'm not even doing this, because I'm such a puritan/prude. Over the years I have found that hiding nudity from instant view is good practice on world-wide forums...
;)

Re: Ray's WIPs
Well ok, but if thumbnails with nudity are not ok then I'm just wondering why there's one in the top row of the forum right now.
Jus saying ;)

Re: Ray's WIPs
It's hard to define, that's true (and the gallery is owei's department), but that picture doesn't actually show anything IMHO. I would see the "side of breast" in the background as slightly less offensive than the thumbnails you had on offer. There's no "full frontal nudity" there (as the male figures do not even show any genitalia). But it's obviously highly debatable, as you so kindly point out...
But I give up...
It's obviously highly subjective and I am trying to think
from the widest (or is it narrowest?) possible perspective here...
I knew the nudity tag would some day come back and haunt me...

Re: Ray's WIPs
The nudity tag I find very useful in situations such as when you're in the office scouring sicommunity.com for plugins, and accidentaly hit a thread like mine and it just so happens that your boss walks in exactly in that moment (as usual ... )
I was going for a preview here because the thread looked pretty pictureless without clicking the "show" buttons - I agree I could've opted (and will if OK) for smaller and more censored versions of the thumbnails, so no boss can recognize anything from 5 meters away ..

Re: Ray's WIPs
and what, is one's boss a toad or a tree? doesn't he handle nudity like a normal mature human being? or is he an automaton that goes: oh no, nudity detected, system overload, cannot handle, cannot seeeee...

Re: Ray's WIPs
The reason the nudity tag came up recently again in this thread was because of rray’s clever implementation of previews, which I – as the initiator of the nudity tags – found problematic.
Any further discussion about the general nature of the nudity tags doesn't belong here.
This is “rray’s WIP" thread, where his use of the nudity tags (or lack thereof... ) might be discussed, not the place, where the nudity tags itself should be discussed. For discussions like that (although I think I won’t easily be convinced of dropping them) I’ve opened a new thread that I started with a slightly longer post about the general idea of the nudity tags.

Hi there
continuing here:
Ray's WIPs (nudity) @cgtalk
(No judging about the nudity tag here - It's just that it seems that everything I work on seems to involve nudity, and for that reason a WIP thread that you have to click 28 times to see the pictures might not be the best idea for me to post my WIPs in)
Cheers,
Ray

Re: Ray's WIPs
Sorry, you feel that way...
Serves me right, I guess, for trying to do the decent thing...
(You never explicitly stated the on-going nudity in the thread title here, that might have made a difference, but okay)
