From Gesture to Cat Model (Weight)








Yay~! This was pretty fun. The tweaking takes a lot of time, but I think it looks really good when it's finished. I gave the cat a slab of marble to carry... then again.. marble isn't exactly light.. especially for a cat. He looks so sad.^^;

I think from now on, I'm gonna just say this quick overview of what we're doing in class for new refined projects I post up (because I know my mom checks my blog too.... Hi mom!) We had to draw gestures (see a previous post) and tweak a model Linda (our teacher) had set up for our class. The way the cat was set up, originally, was upright with its hands out to its sides (like a lower case "t") and we had to move it around, play with how it was rigged, etc. till it came out to how a selected original gesture drawing was (as seen in the last snapshot). So that's what this is.

BTW, if anyone's wondering, My images ARE staggered. I was originally going for posting them side by side, but I think the staggered layout looks better.^_^
