Jo's Dialog Edited

This is gonna be another one of them animations that raise the bar I think.  I can feel it deep down in my uvula.

Jo's audio recorded!

Today I got Jo's audio recorded.  Next I will edit it down then record the motion capture.  Very exciting!

Oh, and Jo recorded a little message for you today. ;)

Jeepers Creepers, Jo!

Eyes fully rigged!

Jo Update - Smileier

Improved smile and other things.  Preeeeow!

Jo Smiling (and other news)

This is not 100% to my satisfaction.. But it's close.  I'll keep adjusting.

Also, I heard from my voice actor; she is out of town for the weekend and will be back Monday.

Jo Status

Hey all,

I believe I'm done rigging Jo's body.. Just waiting to hear back from the voice actor as to when we can record.  In the meantime I'm modeling various mouth shapes / expressions.  ...

Thigh have a pretty good idea

This is continued from my previous post..  Just showing the thigh in working order.  Look at how many bones are in there just to get the thigh moving.  It's crazy!  But it works, a...

Jo Progress

Phew.. The last few days have been frustrating.  I thought the worst was behind me with her chest rig but her thigh was giving me ALL KINDS of problems.. I re-rigged and re-shaped the rotation co...

Jo Progress - Neck

Yesterday I finished rigging Jo's neck, sterno-mastoids and traps.  I also started on her legs.  More to come.. And getting close to time to record the voice acting.

Stay tooned!

New version of ZBrush announced

These features are CRAZY... When will I have time to learn them all!?

So that took longer than expected...

The chest rigging was not working.  Unfortunately to see if it worked or not I had to make a full set of morphs.  So it was a big, painful time-sink.  I had to regroup and come up with ...

The big difference with Jo

While rigging Maria I got some awesome tips by a math genius friend.  I used this new info to develop a new method for rigging her lats.  I won't go into how it works as it is crazy-complex ...

Jo Magic Fingers

Got Jo's fingers rigged.  Usually that takes all day but I knocked this out pretty quickly.  Nice!  Of course, I used some of Maria's parts.  Don't tell anybody, okay?

Jo Update

(See attached file)

All done!

Just kidding.  I've finished making her cage model.

Oh and I finished making still images from the last Maria animation.  I'll get...

Jo Progress

Displacement maps completed (for her neutral pose).  Time to put a skeleton in her!

EDIT: Having fun with lighting

Jo's voice actor found (most likely)!

It's pretty clear that voice acting won the vote.  I found someone local.  She's black and according to her own words, "more muscular than most."  She sent me a sample clip of her voice...

Nips

Among the most detailed nipple work I've made to date. :)

Help Me Decide How To Proceed with Jo's Animation

Hey all... I have a bit of your funds set aside to spice up Jo's animation with voice acting for the deluxe version..  But I was thinking... I could instead hire FP909 to write a story as a bonus...

Retopology complete

Also added her hands and feet.. And painted the variable skin tones throughout her body; although I want to fine tune that some more.

Next step is to make the UV Maps for her body parts and then bri...

Jo Progress

I have Jo mostly retopologized..  Everything but her shoulders and arms.  The Remodeler software helps but a large amount of clean-up is still required.  I was very much expecting this;...

Maria 2 pt. 2 Progress

Sound design is mostly done.. I have one more layer of sounds to make.

But there is a problem I was noticing..  Another element turned up missing in the final render.  Because I was workin...

Jo Breaks the Size Barrier

She is still in a pretty rough form.  But I wanted to show this to all of you. She's a biggun'! ;)

Oh, I bought that remodeler software, by the way.  Thank you all for making this all poss...

I'm gonna buy this

It will shave some time off of retopolgizing Jo's body.

Took the day off today

I woke up feeling dizzy.  I needed to catch up on sleep and relax.  I've been pushing myself hard lately.  After chilling and taking naps through the day my dizziness is gone.  Who...

Updates A-Plenty

Hey everyone!  The final rendering is done on Maria 2 Part 2.  I just have to finish the sound elements.

Also I have started sculpting Jo's body and well...  She has some prize-winnin...

None of the Flash ($6) versions were ...

Good News And Bad News

Hello,

So Maria's big animation just finished rendering.  That was the good news.  The bad news is that due to a slip-up on my part, 1,458 frames will have to be re-rendered.  A part ...

Sticky Lips

I've just rigged the ability for Jo's lips to stick together when the jaw opens.  It was hella-complicated but you guys are worth it.
