Making Cartoon characters
-
Daffy Duck. The beak was not easy, even though it looks pretty simple getting the right curve was essential in the overall likeness.
-
Wow Solo. Truly impressive.(ya, i'm sure you've heard stuff like that a million times already. 
) how DID you do the beak? -
Thanks, yes I do hear it a lot and I love it, thats the whole reason for posting
The beak was done using Subdivide and smooth, FFD and a lot of close up mesh manipulating. The beak took longer than the rest of model combined, but now it's saved and I hopefully never have to make another.

please make the TAZ
-
During the forum downtime I seemed to have some extra time to play so here is Taz.
-
....
-
Haha, your Taz is briliant!
-
If you are still taking requests how about making...Jabberjaw
-
whoa!
Solo you are beyond mastery... you are a sketchup grandmaster -
TOM + JERRY
ASTERIX + OBELIX???
-
Thx a lot!!May i have the taz?!
-
Thanx guys.
LOL@Biebel, never seen that one before.
Actually not sure I know Jabberjaw (unless he is part of the Mermaid thing.)
jenjacob, I have done Asterix and Obelix, infact I did the entire Gaul village, the Roman outpost and a few legionares (Max, z-brush, SU). However I cannot even display them as it was done on contract and I waived my rights to them on sale (would not wanna p*ss my client off as they give me lots of work)
ely862me, I will send it to you later in PM (it may be a little large as fine mesh was used on detail areas)
This easier that I thought to make, 20 minutes.
-
Requests?
This is my favorite Belgian toon (made by Marc Legendre).
You'll probably see why
-
Another masterpiece SOLO
Here is some info on Jabberjaw who's just a small piece of my childhood, but he was funny.

How about Darkwing Duck?
-
Oh yea, I used to watch Jabberjaw too.
Nice work Pete. -
Solo, these are really amzing
I use sketchup daily, but obviously I have missed the release of these plugins that you are using. I will have to update my ruby collection, because I use simillar workflow as you do, but I do my organic modeling in max. I hope that it is as easy and fast to use as in max?
Keep it up, I really like your work
-
pete, cann your write us a easy to use tutorial as works correctly with the sub smooth?
thats perfect.
-
Ely, check your Pm for model.
Coen & reymond, I will get to a tut later (attempt another video one)
Had a few other things to finish this morning so here is a fast darkwing duck, still needs detailing.
-
Okay here is a fast tutorial, I believe this will help folk understand my process better.
In the .skp provided below are two components/models, one is the basic head shape and the other is a basic ear shape, both are rather simple.
Use these two shapes to understand how Sub-smooth works, now! Explode and group each model/component seperately. Click on on group and then on the subsmooth icon (and select 2 Iterations. Once both are smoothed, resize and position ear (make a copy of the one you smoothed for other side) and rhen using shapes (sphere) create eyes and nose.
It should look like this when completed.:
