It looks great!

I fix the wings (lot of work stretching, shrinking, rotating and welding vertex spheres to build before apply the 3D boolean on it). I think its looking decent now. Soon Ill make the textures.
Thanks again!

Looks fantastic! I wouldn't want to run into THAT guy in a dark alley! ;) Is he/she/it boned and ready for animation? I would think those wings would a great place to try out the new IK features in C4.

Thanks, bluetone!
Hes boned, but Im not try to animate it yet. Maybe the model cant fly without crash on a tree or somenthing else. ;-)

Have you seen the latest Harry Potter? Griffins can FLY! ;) Would you mind posting a wireframe of your model, maybe including the bones? I've just started scratching the surface of rigging a model and I'm very curious of how folks go about it. Thanx in advance! :D

Well, I try to make this baby fly. Its a 616Kb flash movie: Click here . The tail looks out of synchronism with the rest of the movements, but its just a test. ;-)
bluetone posted Wed, 10 November 2004 at 9:56 AM
yeah.. i see what you mean about the tail... I think it needs to be more like it's flowing in water... did you use IK with the rig? I would think you would need about twice the number of bones in the wings and then some trailing down towards the feathers to allow for a cupping effect to catch the air better. Just a thought. I like your 1st test and am looking forward to more as this progresses. :D

Thanks for the tips, bluetone. :D
Im working on the claws movements too. I dont understand much about IK, still looking for a good tutorial (preference in portuguese, my english is awful...).
claudiomil posted Wed, 10 November 2004 at 2:45 PM
Hey novisk, maybe I can help you on that because I know Portuguese. Quais s as suas didas sobre IK? Se preferir pode usar o "messanging" aqui na Renderosity para conversarmos. Abra! Claudio
noviski posted Fri, 12 November 2004 at 7:13 AM
Valeu, claudiomil! :-D
Minha dida que tipo de IK eu devo usar para fazer um bede andar, por exemplo? Qual seria o primeiro bone do esqueleto? E o timo? Como vocpercebeu, n entendo "LHUFAS" de IK... :-(
Qualquer ajuda, ouro para mim!
Um Abra!
