A new Yoda update! He is now rigged, and I have a solid system in place for creating the cloth sims. The test animation is a recreation from a scene in episode 3, and the sound comes from that scene as well. The plan now is to further polish and optimize everything and try a couple more animations until everything is solid! :)
Made with blender, and the textures painted by hand in substancepainter.
That awesome strong Blender-Yedi modeling force is definitely flowing through your system :-)
@theluthier Thanks Kent! :D The main goal is to just become a better artist, and I'm thinking that the computing power they had back when they did the prequels would have been quite limiting, so I should be able to create a similar result at home today ;) Also, its one more thing to add to the reel, and its fun to try and create as high level vfx as I can with blender to just show of the possibilities with it! :D
Are you kidding me?! This is amazing work! What's the end goal with this project?
shiennar Thank you!:) It's been a little back and forth for about a year, but if I would compress the time, 8h a day, it would be a little over a month I think. Yeah, one day I might make some kind of tutorial! Thanks again for the compliments! :D
Wow indeed! I love how much further you pushed it from the previous version (which was already amazing). How long have you been working on this project? Oh, and if you wanted to share any of your secret tips on cloth sim and SP texturing, I'd be more than happy to learn, master.
Wow!
Nice work, I love the reenactment!
Wow, he looks awesome! :-D
