About how much time did you put into making this? I'm going to be getting Maya soon hopefully,
and I was just kinda wondering how complicated it is to use something like this.

The 3d modeling was done in Maya 2009

MightyLeafy In reply to Ryo112 [2010-02-19 17:31:27 +0000 UTC]

Maya 2009 for the modelling
Photoshop CS3 for the texturing
Aftereffects CS3 for editing and compositing

I'm really enjoying the style of this! Did you use a custom cell shader?

MightyLeafy In reply to absoloot [2010-01-25 07:55:05 +0000 UTC]

You could call it that. Pretty much a ramp shader with added nodes and some value tweaks

absoloot In reply to MightyLeafy [2010-01-25 08:33:38 +0000 UTC]

I've gotta figure out how to do it. I really like how you're able to get all that color in the shadows. Great work!

Kiyamboy [2009-12-05 23:03:00 +0000 UTC]

She is really cute. I especially like the textures of her skin and the way u modelled her hair.

Did you use subdiv surfaces for the hair?

Doing that is really daunting hehe

how long did it take you to design the character on the animation program.
i would think a could of days?

MightyLeafy In reply to inusessy [2009-10-08 03:22:34 +0000 UTC]

U mean design the character, or create the character after the design XD; And do u mean create the character for the animation? or create the animation with the character? or both together?

inusessy In reply to MightyLeafy [2009-10-08 03:55:40 +0000 UTC]

create the character after the design nd create the animation with the character

MightyLeafy In reply to inusessy [2009-10-08 04:39:44 +0000 UTC]

The character took 2-3weeks to model and texture and rig and setup shaders I think. Then the animation took about 2 hours I think.

MightyLeafy In reply to negaistar [2009-10-06 13:28:17 +0000 UTC]

Animating isn't really my thing, so probably not. I enjoy creating characters and setting them up for animation. But not really the animating step XD;

Thanks for the support

mangaeva [2009-10-06 09:25:19 +0000 UTC]

Great job! I have one small suggestion. At the parts where the black lines are cause her shirt is white. Instead of black lines a light blue would be the best. It separates the two white parts and looks lot better and natural with the white. the black lines are giving too big contrats to these parts.

MightyLeafy In reply to mangaeva [2009-10-06 09:36:30 +0000 UTC]

I did originally intend to use a different colour for the lineart, as I always do in my drawings. But the black lines were much easier to apply in aftereffects(just with a layer blending mode actually). To change the colour I would have to single out the lines onto a different layer. Im familiar with this in photoshop and have some ideas on how to achieve this in aftereffects, but havent given it a try yet XD;

I see . Well good luck if you try! Every thought about creating a game with such characters for the iphone? >>; Sorry I hope you dont hate me for this. its just I would love to see some quality anime like games on that thing. Of course charcter and environment design isnt everything, the story and the game has to be good. I just wish someone would do something like that ^_^;. But just to say it again. Lovely animation and character!
