Hi Wizaerd,

I forgot to mention that I always use Sculptris and/or Carrara to adjust and manipulate the shapes.

First I create the basic shape in CC by going forth and back to iClone 4-6 times. Then I refine everything in Sculptris - go back to iClone and have a closer look, back to Sculptris to refine more and so on. All in all the the Old Guy from today took me around 4 hours to finish. Not bad for a fully rigged and ready to animate character;).

These are pretty great TokoMotion! ;)

The ability to "reset" to a new base by sending to iClone and sending back is really powerful.

Every new software is tedious when you first learn it. My suggestion is to suffer through, because it will quickly become much easier.
It's like trying to play ice hockey. Put on the skates, go after the puck, and it won't take long before the moves become second nature and you don't have to think about it. 

With CC, I would first suggest trying to match a specific character or face. Match it as perfectly as you can. If something isn't right, go through the pains of figuring out how to make it right. That is how you learn. I believe this is one reason RL is having these contests, to get people to actually dive in and learn how to do it. 

Peace.

Hi Rampa, thanks for your comment - yes, the possibility to "reset" is really great. 

Hi CaseClosed, well said, I just can agree:).

Today I was just fixing some things on my CC "Jack Frost" - especially the head shape. I thought it would be nice to give it a try in Indigo and that´s the result. Pretty good, I think.:cool:

Another great character, looks very similar to one of the kids on my daughters swim team, except for the white hair :ermm:

Hi. Thanks to everyone for your feedback. I really appreciate all your kind words. Haven´t been here for a while, but still working on new stuff.

There are some more characters in the pipeline but I was currently focussing on making custom cloths out of the Base and Essential pack assets. So here is a quick preview on what I got so far: A new pair of sneakers and a jacket.





The jacket needs some more detailed work on the texture but I think the shoes look already pretty cool. More is coming soon. Enjoy!

Hi. Just wanted to post a quick WIP preview:

I saw a nice concept-art of a Troll today and tried to re-create it in CC. Works well, but still needs some detailed work on the skin texture, cloths and additional accessories. Will post the final version, soon. Enjoy!
