I know, shame on me. But summer is gone and my parents have a little orchard and some cornfield at countryside and they needed my help. And when I got back home i was to tired to do anything. But tonight I worked a little on the woman (added hands) and I finished the 2d dream creature. Tomorrow I plan to work on the woman's clothing and draw a little, so come again tomorrow night.

As I promised, the update on the woman. She's still bald but I added clothes and eyes and finished the hands and legs. Already got the map coordinates so next I'l start drawing the maps.

She looks really good, I like how the clothing drapes on her body. It is very realistic looking.

Well, it just happened. i now work to add the hair and I think I will have to redone part of the troll. Then mak the maps for the woman and the man. Then make the childrens. My God! I'm dead meat, aren't I?

[Liquid X]

It sounds like a lot, but once you start doing it , it won't be so bad. Good luck, and just have fun doing it. You aren't on a deadline, so enjoy yourself.

See avatar if you look at it that way you will never get done............just remember no one shares the same love for your baby but you!!!

It's looking great avatar
But isn't that dress a little to nice(looks like a cocktail dress to me) for her?
The man's clothing looks like a sack or night gown, kinda I just don't see her wearing that dress out in the woods

[Avatar-3DT]

Liquid X, most of the time I do.

Rych, for my kindergarden you wanna say! They are so many!
rubberduck, in fact is not a dress but a night gown. And I'm working on the mans clothing. I'll add some short pants on him. And the texture will make all the difference. Now the fabric looks like silk, but I'll make it look rougher in the end. Anyway, thanks for pinpointing that. Before I didn't plan to give much attention to it until the last moment.

Are you doing the cloth with a simulator or modelling by hand? If you're doing it all by hand, I would suggest making the cloth really simple and a lot more rigid than what the woman's gown looks like now. Without a cloth simulator, you'll be manually keying every single frame with a night gown like the one she's wearing now =)

It looks cool though

very cool stuff, but her hands look a bit too masculine. Don't know if Max has that, but you could do an average vertices, it would make em smoother and more femine looking. As for the dress, if you don't have a cloth simulator, you could probably use soft body dynamics could you not? So the skinned body would push the dress and make it seem like cloth.

[Liquid X]

I didnt notice it, but the hands do look a bit rough and large.

[Avatar-3DT]

She is a peasant woman and she had to have harsh hand, hardened working the land and cutting wood.
viragoLDR, to be honest I was planning to skin the nightgown separatly but Daniel's ideea is much better aldo I suck doing cloth simulations. They always shacke like they are possesed or something and I cannot find the cause.
DanielB, thanks for the ideea buddy, I will try it for sure. Liquid X see the answer up.

Anybody, can you give me a reference for a peasant night hat? I mean for her, for the woman. The hair does not work on her as good as it did on the man so I plan to make a hat of somekind and just a few strand of hair around it. What do you say?

[Liquid X]

if you dont want to completely give up on the hair, you could use the joan of arc tut to get a better idea and learn to do it better.

Here you go. I dug it up for ya.
