Topic: What've you skoped lately?

Another preview of things to come, just a head I finished last night.

[BentonGrey]

Is that Merman and Stinkor? 

[detourne_me]

Looking great SA!!

[SickAlice]

Yep BG tis and ty dm. I mentioned earlier somewhere but I had to figure out a specific order for characters due to shared parts between characters. Stinkor shares a body with Merman as well an armor with Mekaneck so Stinkor was an early one on the list. I also came up with a new way of mapping and making head types and such.

[BentonGrey]

Nice work, very resourceful!

[SickAlice]

Finally managed to figure out the axis inputs in keyframes. Not polished but I can do some things now.

[BentonGrey]

Oh my gosh, MECHANECK!  Haha, that's fantastic, SA!  Very impressive!  I hope he has a melee anim where he extends his neck as an attack.

[deanjo2000]

That's ace

[SickAlice]

Ty. I'm please with my turnout on the armor. And he does have the animation. I'm using a copy past of that same animation pictured which was an area as a ranged since I wasn't entirely sure how anyone would use that move in game. It's the only animation for that base nif (Taskmaster) that I could find where the neck stays pretty much even the whole time. I needed that of course because the neck and head move vertically and if the neck was to move it would look weird.

Ah! i could only enjoy seeing other MOTU characters, very nice Alice! Any hope to use this also in  ?

[SickAlice]

Ty. No hope sorry, I only have and use  . I can't test in the first game and most of my stuff uses features that are only available in the 2nd games engine and not the first.

Four are finished now sans keyframe polishing (She-Ra is the fourth), He-Man and Skeletor are lager jobs. Came up with something new to create Moss Man's moss/fur. Can't believe I actually got it to work, I was sure this would fail. Most will have something like this and hence my fixation with this line. Akin to the original figures I want to give them specific features and try and do things with this game that haven't been done before.

[UnkoMan]

Your dedication to this is dope! Moss man was a favourite as a kid.
Is he an alpha'd body over top of his regular body? If so, how does this look when he animates? Strange clipping or right on the money?

[BentonGrey]

Wow, SA, these are really fantastic!  I'm darned impressed with their attention to detail, variety, and completeness!  Great work!

[detourne_me]

 
Looks awesome so far!  I really love the weapons you've included, too!
That mace with the square clip, Stinkor's blue gun... the nostalgia is coming in like a tidal wave.

[SickAlice]

Thank you. Just finishing Zodac, Hordak and Grizzlor now for shared parts. The weapons have been a fun part to do. I'm most proud of this Horde crossbow currently, I put a lot of work into it.

[deanjo2000]

You should be proud of all of them, fantastic work all around

[detourne_me]

Oh my! I love that crossbow. One of my favorite toy accessories as a kid.

[SickAlice]

Thanks. The complicated part was making the different interchangeable mast heads for the different characters (Hordak, Grizzlor, Mantenna/Dragstor and Leech). Just moved on to sculpting the modern and 200x ones but, well I'm not that steady right now so I'm working on Two-Bad instead until I can focus more.
