        And rendered with 'toon tones'

              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.

                          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!!!

                                        SOLO,
                                        Are all yours cartoons done with the Artisan plugin only? Nice work and you are the master of the plugin.

                                        All the best to you,
                                        James

                                          James,

                                          There are some made with Artisan and the balance with SDS (previous version), SDS was great, but Artisan has so many new tools that making characters is now easier and faster than ever.

                                          Without Dale's (whaat) tools these would be almost impossible. (okay, Blender may be done without it) πŸ˜‰

                                            Brilliant work Pete. I don't know what to say! 😳

                                            Is it possible to animate these? Put 'bones' in them?
