Progress from the First Weeks of School

Happy Fall Semester!

The school year has officially begun and we are here to see the progress! The main thing that I have been working on is getting Finn finished and ready to rig and texture. The main thing is actually just getting the head done. I am very pleased with the body and the rest of it, all I need is to make the head.

Right now it is super scary because of the uncanny valley of it and it not being all filled in. I am very focused on edge loops and making sure the facial rig will be easier for my rigger.

My goals for the next couple of weeks is to have Finn done and get the background characters' heads done too. I think then I would start with clothing, but I would have to talk to my group about it. I also know we should do the Motion Capture (MoCap) to get some of our animations going.

I am also going to add my failed sculpt attempt. I tried really hard to do it in ZBrush but that ended up not working due to lack of practice with it recently. It ended up looking really bad and I would have essentially had to restart again if I wanted to keep trying. I moved back to Maya because I am more familiar with the system and I could get good edge loops.

I don't know why they aren't aligning nice but this looks fancyish I guess.
