      I'm always up for a challenge, here you go, took 3 hours plus some change. A little heavy on the poly's due to the SDS meshing but overal I am satisfied.

        There you go walking on water again! Amazing work and in an incredibly short timeframe. It would take me 3 hours to model the handgun.

          Thanks cheffey, most of it is symetrically repeated components.
          This is cool, I altered some cel textures to make them cartoonish, I think it works great.

              Hi Pete,

              What can I say?
              I made this request last night (Yosemite Sam) just before I finished work.
              I come in this morning to find my request completed.

              FANTASTIC!

              It only took you 3 hours?
              I'd spend 3 hours just thinking about how to try and do this.

              I'm realy curious as to how you "fleshed out" a full 3D model from the simple 2D image I supplied. That was just a front view of the subject. Did you source side-on and back views? Or do you just rely on your own gut feeling as to the overall dimensions of the character. Based on your memory, perhaps, of watching the cartoon?

              Also...

              Are these "cel textures" something you use in Vue?
              Or did you render using something else?

              Anyway, let me just say again how impressive your work is.
              You set in an incredibly high bench mark for us to aim for.
              A great inspiration!

              Regards
              Mr S

                        David, thats a cool Homer, I probably over did mine.

                        All it takes is playtime to get the hang of creating proxy's, here is Bart with image of proxy.

                          In the interest of full disclosure, I got help on this Homer from the warehouse. I tinkered with it a little. The gumby and pokey are mine. It's just that Homer is basically a cylinder and some spheres. I like the subsmooth tool, but I still struggle with controlling it and using FFD.

                              It seems Bart has gained a few pounds ๐Ÿ˜„

                                    Haha... I think it is 'Marvin' Pete, not 'Mervin' and these are great!

                                        Dang it. I started working on Marvin last week and have not had a chance to finish him. No point in posting it up now.

                                        Great work!!!

                                            one of my favorite Characters. ..

                                            as long as they are just round or ovoid. . .I can handle it!. . . Besides. . I want to be on this little dog's good side when he takes over the world!


                                            isn't his little tail cute?
