Happy Turkey Day!

....for those who celebrate it.I've got Suki's right hand Animated (not fingers yet) with her palm making the appropriate contact with her body where applicable. And oh, Lordy Lord that took a long time! I also made some alterations to her upper body muscle suit.. So yeah I think doing the l...

Suki Progress Report

Oh man... I am drained. I've spent the last couple of days modifying / refining her hand and arm animations.. It was a tremendous undertaking.. When the body is as wide as it is, the elbows can't drape down at her sides like most of us normally do with relaxed arms, so I had to keep them spr...

Suki Progress!

Feet done! Not including toes. I maybe could have got more done but I had to shovel fuggin' wet, slushy snow! Ugh..You can see the black legs are the original, raw motion capture data.

Animation Progress

Hello all...Just letting you all know how it's going. I've got the motion capture data retargeted to Suki's rig and essentially cleaned up except for her hands and feet. Those will need more TLC, esp. the feet as I usually hand-animate those using the mocap data as a visual reference. Mu...

Motion Capture Recorded!

Nice 'n long too.. Nearly 4 minutes for both parts together.

Suki Update

Lower body soft body geometry complete. Whoo hoo!

Suki Update: Redux

I was hesitant to post this initially because this is SO far removed from how her final appearance will be.. I don't want to inject confusion. But on the other hand, this process is taking a long time and you all have been very patient with me.. So I am going to show you the test preview animati...

Suki Update!

Okay.. I tried splitting up the soft body model between upper and lower body. It was still slow as !$&#?!. So I bit the bullet and completely remodeld it. It is now simming 500% faster. At least. This is great news. But I did split up the upper and lower body. So the upper body is done, tomorrow I e...

Suki's Muscle-Suit Done But There's a Problem

FIrst of all, the deformations are fan-fuggin'-fastic.When I did a test with just the right half of her body it took an hour to initialize but the sim went very smoothly. Almost real-time.Then I finished her and did a test with the whole body. The initialization took forever... I don't know ...

Suki Progress

I got a LOT done today. My arse is sore from sitting at my desk all day. But I think I will need one more day to finish off the process of adding the internal mesh for the FEM / Soft Body model. You could say this is the middle of the process. Or you could say we are in the mid term.

Suki Progress!

Hey everybody! I'm finished with texturing Suki's body and she's render-ready. At the moment I am preparing her for the soft body simulation... Adding the internal mesh that will connect all the way down to her skinny core frame. This may take another day (or two?). After that I will be ...

Release #49 - Suki Grows & Lifts Part 1 of 2

Thank you all for your support on this double feature debut of this massive new girl! I hope you like her when you see her bounce into your screens! :D Thank you again!

Progress and News

Hello all! I've just finished sculpting Suki. In my humble opinion I think I've improved my sculpting skills.. But I'll let you all be the judge there. :)In other news I will be posting a paid creation later today. I know it puts me further behind, but I was legitimately catching up ther...

Public Preview Posted

I just posted this over at DA. Cheers! :D

Retopology Complete! (Re-rendered)

Retopology (adding a lower polygon mesh in the shape of the raw sculpt) is complete along with a LOT of refinement. She is now ready for the high detail sculpt. Yeah, she got a bit bigger here and there (over there too) in the process.. I don't think you'll mind.For no reason, here is her re...

Progress Report

I'm ~3/4 done retopologizing my raw sculpt. She's lookin' better and better! :D

Early look at Rough Sculpt

Here's a very early look at a very rough sculpt of her muscular body. Hopefully you can see I am pushing the envelope on size here. :)

Whew!

Done with all of Suki's Metamorphic joint deformation sculpting. Time to make her huge!

Sliming Suki

I got UP! Here's a little slimy test I made.

Rigging Milestone

Hey all!I've got all of Suki's bones in place and all of said bones are set up with the proper constraints. The next step is the Metamorphic joint compensation sculpting, which should be minimal as her frame is quite thin.

Suki's Skinny Core

A look at the modeling of her anorexia-esque core cage model. Don't look if you are adverse to seeing very skinny women. :)

Poll: Suki's Chest

Tell me what you would prefer to see Suki sporting in her first animation

Hand Job Complete

Hands rigged.. Whew. I !@?#!? hate rigging hands!I'm aware of the problem with her left pinky.. A spotted and fixed it after I made this preview.This is a good a time as any to mention this: It is my goal to make this "the rig to end all rigs." Meaning when this is done I would be able t...

This is not important

Neither is this.

New Tool Coming UP

I'll be buying this software within a week.. My girlfriend is helping me buy it as a birthday present. :)http://hurleyworks.com/up-gallery/

Mouth Rig Complete(ish)

I'm gonna call this done.. At least done enough for her first adventure. I can always add to her rig later. I'll move on to rigging her body next!

Suki's partially complete mouth rig

She's alive.. ALIVE!

Hairy Situation

So Lightwave 2018's hair system is still bugged. That sucks. I put my old hair plugin on Suki's same hair model and this is the result (attached). Looks much better.The problem is this hair plugin is not compatible with the current version of Lightwave. So I may have to render Suki in LW2018...
