Final rocksteady


The turtles, Rocksteady, Bebop, Technodrome, Splinter, Transport Module, Comilink, News Van, Mini Cam and Portal Chamber are all final models.
The only one that really needs finalizing are April and Shredder.
I can NOT get April's face to look right for the life of me.

Wow, just wow! Can't recall much of the original, but I feel you're getting close... ;)

[Shredder565]

here is a question...

how come the only time my lighting changes (color, brightness) take effect, is when I use hardware render? When
i use mental ray, nothing shows up...

[Hirazi Blue]

Could you perhaps post your setup (a screenshot including your explorer and the PPGs for your lights)?

[Shredder565]

it shows up dark real time, but in render it's like nothing ever changed.

[Hirazi Blue]

Is this scene dependent or does it occur with every scene?

[Shredder565]

Every shot is a brand new scene.. 346 in all...happens in every one of them. the only time lighting changes show up is when using hardware render.

[Shredder565]

A new April model was needed. last change on the old one was in 2011. wasn't cutting it. I like everything better on this one..but the eyes still need more work/life somehow. same with eye brows.

[Shredder565]

A week and 8 hours later...

Just a few minor boot/pant leg details in the back and it's done. I just hope it animates as good as it renders for a Final April model. The Body and Hair are final at least.
This was a much needed refit from the last model that had not been touched since 2011.

[Shredder565]

Finished. the model I like as a finally final one. I just hope it animates as good.

Now onto the final version of Shredder, ground up.

15,000 views, very little interaction ....come on folks...constructive criticism helps improve! .


Time lapse of how I work my model creation. probably alot of short cuts that could have had this done much faster, that i just don't know
