Body 2… um or 3, maybe technically? No, 2, I guess. (I didn’t post any WIPs yet? oops :X) The first one, I used sliders to tweak the SL rig into proportions that can stand on all fours… but as I was working on it, I was not happy with the length of the neck, […]
No, I didn’t fall off the face of the grid! I have been… doing things. The Lemming got its UVMapping done… well, half done. The thing is still mirrored, so… only half of it really exists… ANYWAY, all the joints got done. But. Need help. I may decide that the Lemming cannot survive as a […]
Getting into the face rig. Some interesting developments… and some horrible frustrations! How close is it to being done? Ughhhh… There’s a tonne of work left to do on the main body, not to mention the hands and all the fingers and the feet and toes! I haven’t exactly uvmapped as I’ve gone along, so…. […]
I got some videos done for the Dolphin… on the last 2 days of my “vacation” :X This is the playlist. Including… How to safely unpack the Dolphin and get that pesky no-copy Discount Card out of it. How to wear and use your Deluxe Dolphin Add-ons. How to use the swimmer, and some gratuitous […]
After some tweaking to get them to lay closer to the skin… The Deluxe Dolphin will have an optional tattoo layer. For things like special markings, scars, glowing runes, and flashing neon signs that say “Eat At Joe’s” or stuff :X ANYTHING! The melon and sides are set up for animating textures. The top, bottom, […]
No, not done YET. I am 99.9% done with all the animations. This does not include the falling animation, which I really, REALLY want(need) to re-do. Oh, and according to my notes, I need to fix the Sit animation. So make that 99.8% done. It also does not include adding a tweak to the Wink […]
Well! I got through 11 days of my “40 days left” schedule. Then realized I didn’t leave any room for 2D art assets. Oops. (“Unforseen Disasters”? Maybe…) Today I re-totalled everything I have left to do… and got 52 days. :/ Well, you know the first schedule was REALLY optimistic… I was a little more […]
It was now version 20 of the Dolphin. I decided to go ahead and add in some of the face bones that I had considered ‘optional’ at the start. Since the jaw was screwed up due to the presence of the lower lip center, I thought I should be careful and put all the head […]
Uh… or it will. Soon! 3D Menagerie is a Bloodsong Termagant company. It was founded in 2000 for the creation of Poser models, most notably the Heavy Horse, Wee Beasties, and Dragon Factory. The 3DMenagerie.com site is still up, along with its freebie repository. This site will host the information for the New 3D Menagerie […]
