Hi guys!

Great site you got here. Lots of talented people...

I'm a 3d-newbie who wants to get some response on one of my first models.

Ok, here it goes...

Now there´s a good effort! ... are you using premade models for the bones? ...

Getting great though! Might want to tweak a bit the texture on it ..

Hi There

The bones are because I'm trying to make real physics animation, that is with muscles and veins, to make a realistic skin movement. It takes a long time though, and its hard to get it goodlooking...

That takes quite a lot to calculate .. better brush up skills with deformers and IK chains ... and then move one to this kind of animation.

By the way: Did you know that´s how they created Gollum in the LOTR movie? (your method I mean)

However keep on it ... would like to see your results! user added image
