Halloween thoughts

This is an image that I create for our IUPUI ACM SIGGRAPH Student Chapter Halloween student contest. It is just for fun, my final project won’t have any blood in it.

First TownHouse rough texture job!

Color Concept

Some characters’ textures progresses

Some progresses on my characters’ textures. All of them have base textures on them. Bump map and specular map are not yet created for them. Also they need more detail works such as their fingers, clothes, teeth, turkey’s win, feet and mouth.

First animation layout, first draft layout.

Some little town center progress

Rigid character, first shot

After another month of work, I have finally rigid three of my main characters. Also I have finish most of modeling job, including the town center. It is time to move on the texturing job next week.

Here are a few extras in the story.

The butche

Here comes the butcher’s body and facial expression.

The town center is in working progresses

The town center is in working progresses right now, and it still needs a lot of works. It has so many details need to add. I guess I will spend lots time on texturing it in August………Well, I hope I can finish all model by end of August………really hope that will happen.

Final turkey model

Modeling the turkey is actually easy then I thought, but I run in so many troubles when I skinning it. I still can’t figure out how to make its eye lid open and close properly and smoothly………by the way, his toes are actually human characters’ fingers…..well, it works well.

Sketch of the turkey

Here is a sketch of the turkey.

Chicken study

Well, I need a few reference pictures so I can model my turkey character. I made the chicken in sit down and run poses. This study help out a lot and it makes the modeling processes faster. However, the facial blend shape drives me crazy. Too much works actually. Anyway, it is kind of fun to work with this chicken..... or turkey character. I watched "Finding Nemo (the bird)" for facial shape reference as well.

Sketches of Characters

Here are sketches of my three main human characters. The Turkey is not here yet, because I haven't got a chance to buy a really turkey or chicken for the image reference purpose. All Character models should be done by end of July with all facial shapes and textures set up. Also bone set up by the same time.

Sketch of the butcher shop

Here comes a sketch of the butcher shop. It is a key scene in the project.
