Modelling Jaz Part 08 - Complete

Jaz in 3D ~ Model Test from Dave Smith on Vimeo.

Introducing the fully modelled, textured, rigged and weighted, Jaz the Brox (Fox).

Had large deal of trouble with adding manipulators and controls. The guide I followed contrasted to Darren's notes, so I found myself have to make do with what I could achieve. Hopefully, there is enough there so I can animate him to dialogue.

Will need to create blend shapes, but that is not required for this class. The next stage will be for my own benefit.

Modelling Jaz Part 07 - Texture nearly complete

Darren seemed pretty happy with the model. He recommended some extra geometry around the leg, shoulder, neck and base of the tail. I still need to fix up the textures, since they're fairly crappy (mainly in the shoe area). The luxury I guess is because he has flat colours, though I may need to add some forms of shadows, or creases, in the clothes for that added touch.
