Knight

[Jordon]

I would have posted this in my old topic for this character, but its not a generic male character anymore. I made him into a knight. He is fully rigged except for the fingers(the 4 fingers are 3 bones), even his face is rigged up and capable of expression and talking. After im finished this and my dragon I plan to make a short movie of them fighting.

Here is a screen showing the facial animation:

That is a cool knight :D but the Bg is little odd:p

[Jordon]

lol, that is definatly not a final background, its just there to test reflections

[Mustela]

I´ve made a knight to, can I show it so we could compare a bit:P although mine hasnt any facial rigging.:o

[Jordon]

Of course! lets see it!:D

[Mustela]

Heres one in front

[Mustela]

Another one, the background is just to check reflections as well:D

[Mustela]

yet another one

[Mustela]

a little closer

[Mustela]

and one from the back!

[Jordon]

Cool, those look good, your armor is much more detailed than mine, but i think my character is more detailed. Your hands and face look a little wierd, especially since the hands dont close completely around the sword. and the eyes look a bit misshapen. But other than that its awesome!

[Jordon]

Heres some more of my knight

[Jordon]

back view

[Jordon]

and a close up

[Mustela]

Thanks man, the face is still yet, haven´t animated it yet and the hands are hard to get to look good too:D

heres a closeup on the face... he looks a lottle frightened with no rigging:roll:

[Jordon]

i think the eyes are a little big and the eyelids should "hug" the eyes more.

here is mine de-helmed

Hello Again!

As for now we´re completing all the school work so I haven´t really got any time to fix my knight. maybe in a week or two.

as for your knight I think it really looks good. I like the sword design and his leg armour.
The face I´m a little scepcitacal towards but I can´t see wat´s wrong with it;)
althought a face is pretty hard to get realistic!:D

[Mustela]

nice! Looking forward to the animation, I would have the patience to do a 13 hour rendering, unless it´s over night but my computer is so loud:S hehe

[Jordon]
