Hi,
Okay...so here is my 1st WIP thread. It is the part I love the least as my blocking skills are awful.
The skin modifier was used to shape the character's silhouette. Can't wait to get sculpting.
Started sculpting the Primary details.
There is still a lot of work ahead but I am pleased with what I was able to accomplish in less than 2 days.
melinmotion Thank you, Mel. Will look better once I start to add Secondary and Tertiary details.
Just finished the Primary details. Secondary details will be more focused towards his arms and hands and then some on his torso, legs and head. I'm not entirely satisfied with his proportions, most notably his tail but thank goodness this is still a WIP.
Wow Bennie, that looks awesome! I love the dark style you apply to this!
slenaerts Thank you so much, Sebastien. I love your Picachu! Great work so far. I knew that you were gonna create something amazing. You should be so proud of yourself. Thanks again, Sebastien.
Hi bc_griffin ! This looks great so far - really nice choice of character!
I'm subbed to your thread and looking forward to the updates 👍👍👍
beefkeef Oh Wow, thank you for the kind feedback and sub, Keith! Congratulations for appearing in CG Cookie's Article...truly inspirational. You deserve it man! Your work is astounding! I particularly loved the part where you mentioned of being kept accountable and see your projects through to the end. I am so guilty in that department but ever since I read your story, it motivated me to push my projects through to completion. Thank you for that, Keith.
So, I did some scene planning and thought to myself…wouldn't it be an awesome concept to include both Mewtwo & Mew together in a scene? I'll be creating 2 scenes, one being a fight scene (sculpting power effects, dust, smoke, etc.) between Mewtwo & Mew and the other a friendship scene as depicted in the Gif below. Both characters are still in raw stages of sculpting. The next phase of this project is to start with Secondary details.
Excellent work as always bc_griffin .
I am really excited to see your 2 scenes, the fight scene sounds like it will be awesome.
@adrian2301 Oh wow, thank you so much for your kind and honest feedback, Adrian.
Thanks for those kind words Bennie, that's really nice of you and I really appreciate it!! And I'm so glad you found the article useful 🙏 Great to hear!!!
Nice! I like the extra length you've given the tail, for sure it's nicer than the stubby version
beefkeef Thank you, Keith. Yeah, I agree. Adjusting the length of his tail was definitely the right call.
I’ve been watching a lot of Pokémon as of late to get a better understanding on how to storyboard the battle scene between Mewtwo & Mew. Currently busy adding secondary details to Mewtwo’s battle scene where he unleashes his power. I’m thinking of adding anime action lines to create the illusion of speed. I won’t be able to retopo these characters as time are against me. Instead, I’ll replace that time by conceptualizing a dense action scene. Yeah, the bar is lifted but I have to push myself. I’ll rather fail trying. I also love my adaptation of Mewtwo so far.
