I'm animating them now.. kinda late already but have to finished this. screen shot. By the way, my advertisement for my project which is actually a requirement for my major subject to be submitted on friday. The product is coca cola, toaste man is very dehydrated and and he'll be petrified by the heat and Red Coka (who has coke and very energetic ) comes to him and plays around and ended up letting him drink some. then he'll come alive dancing. something like that.. hope it will turn out nice ( hopefully ) We'll i cant change the concept since it's already approved. here's a draft screenshot, toasted man walking.

my bc is just a gradient white and blue space (lazyboy)

man no comments yet? This is really awesome. I love the exageration on your characters. The walking pose looks cool too.
One thing though, the muscle dude's face looks like one of rostoon's bust character. lol

lol, anslaught i can see a slight resemblance

this looks really cool mate, nice exaggerated anatomy, i'm assuming he'll be getting some clothes at one point could get a bit embarassing if people find out he's all action man down there user added image

It looks like he's been weighted really well as the deformations in the images are nice and clean. look forward to seeing more

I must concur! I like the exaggeration, and your walk poses have a lot of weight! The "Red" character is quite interesting as well!

I must say I've never seen controllers quite like yours! They look like blocks of marble!

I hope we'll get to see some animation! Keep up the good work!
