Tiki Character v1

Here is a look of our first version of a tiki character we are thinking about the cartoon show.
Character_v1

Version 1:

The character is rigged and ready to animate !  This includes the mask and all.

There will be some improve that will be made on the character. For instance we thought that the leafs shall be Ncloth to add some secondary movement.

We also are testing out different textures for the tiki mask.



I will post an update version soon...
But I really like the look and style we have so far

Los Angeles in the Background

LA Construction Orlando




http://www.laconstructionorlando.com




Another small business that need a website. I decided to help out and create a website in word press. It was fun and I learnt a lot in the process. I got the hang of testing out a lot of plug in and finding a good theme was a key starting point. After I got the researching out of the way the fun and exciting part took way. I add the companies logo and match the color theme through out the website.



Finally talk to the owner and discussed some final touch.

Demo Intro

Improving my Demo Reel Intro.


I plan on bring my water droplet into my demo reel. I feel like it would tie all liquid simulation togather. 

For this I'm doing a couple of test which are shown here:





The test consist of Ncloth and sphere's. I used a couple of presets and then made a custom Ncloth. I will use this later on by make a blade of grass that is rigged with a couple of joints. The blade of grass will be animated and the Ncloth will just roll off like a water-droplet. This water droplet will be exported out into Realflow. I will then create the splash and ripples in realflow.

Here is a screen shot of my setting for the custom water droplet:






There will be more coming...
