Let me introduce Jake, the loner hacker type chiuahua german shepherd mix ( the idea came from my concept before : Don't talk to me until I have my coffe) Jake is my first cartoonish character wich I plan to make little loop animations for practice.
Soon you will get to know his story and his annoying flatmates , why he is running from it's past, and why the the cheapest blocks of flats apartman was the only option for him where most of the neighbours are not exactly normal.
Workflow notes:
- Zbrush part was simple to make, I started to feel like I know what I'm doing in the program, thanks to Pablo Munoz Gomes who's really amazing Zbrush artist. I still learn a lot from his works.
-(Blender) The weight paint was really hard to maintain with all those little controllers of the rigify around the mouth that I worked on to use this character for face expression and lip sync animation aswell for an animation series I'm planning to make. Shape keys are also missing yet.
- The render is horrible, it's a 400 frame animation that took me a right amount of time to render in cycles with very low samples, so the quality is very cheap on this, and also the environment is very low because I wanted to keep it minimalistic so animating was the main purpose on this video but I couldn't stand not to make atmosphere with music as I used to do, hehe
/What are you waiting for? - my best friend asked me.
He is right.
There's no time to wait for anything. We gotta go and work for it.
