Attached Link: Marilyn Anim Here

Hello everyone! Here is a new model I am working on. (I have no plan to sell this in my store so you don't need to ask) It is a tribute to Marilyn Monroe. I modeled her in Lw (with the base of my Unity char) and created a very fast texture.

I tought I would share this project with all the Marilyn's fan out there! ;)

I only have 4 basic morphs for her face, but decided to render this small animation anyway.

Here is a pic

Absolutely gorgeous. What a stunning character. I would certainly ourchase her if you change your mind.

That is really good! she's quite beautiful actually. You've done a darn good job that's for sure!

Isn't Marylin Manson's face a little longer?..;) oh that Marylin..;) hello Norma Jean..;)

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit

Blondes DO have more fun, even 40 years after they've died.  This proves the point of a novelette I wrote, based on the Epic of Gilgamesh: that man's greatest hope for immortality, is to be remembered.

i think you have done a great job!!!!!!!!coming together nice!!!!!!!!! i keep meaning to get 'round to doing a Marilyn!!!!!!!!!! i think it will come together when you add some hair!!! maybe a trans-mapped hair as it wouldn't need to move much!!! if at all!!!!!!!!

Thanks! :) hehe Yes I intend to created few MM hairstyles for my renders...Those I might decide to sell...Here is a render of the 1 of the Marilyn smiles I've been working on today.

Neftis, what video codec are you using? I can't get either to play.... the still shots look great though.

Gallery

It's divx codecs (sorry I forgot to mention):blink:

Absolutely gorgeous!!!!

 Without a doubt one of the best, if not the best, 3D likenesses that I've seen.

I know you've already said,  but I'll ask anyway.  Are you sure you won't reconsider selling the morphs and texture?  I know I'd be first in line to purchase and I have no doubt there would be a lineup elbowing their way to the cash register :)

I absolutely love this particular shot from the first movie.

Attached Link: Marilyn WITH SOUND

Thanks a lot!! Here I have created another animation with sound this time :lol: I hope you will like.

Beautiful work!  Was it rendered in Lightwave?

Hi and thanks Dominique!
No it was not redered in LW (It would then be in the LW forum) hehe It was simply poser 5 Then I added a soft light filter in Ulead Media Studio. (by the way I now have 10 morphs done for her expressions YAY!!!!:lol:

Acadia, thanks a lot ;) as for your question, first it's not really a morph (like for stef or v3) it is a complete new mesh created with my Unity base mesh in LW. I can't really sell it as a morph pack for Unity since I had to change some geometrie. I only created her for fun to use in my personal animations.
Also few years ago I had a character (base on v2) called Digital Marilyn, but it was pulled from the store because of the copyrights on Marilyn's estate.I guess RR didn't want to take the chance (and who can blame them) :tt2: I sold it elsewhere for a while but decided to take it off because it was old stuff and v2 characters did not sell much anymore.

Anyway,  I will  first begin by finishing her completely...As you can see, she  needs a hairstyle badly  ;) :lol:

Linkdink if you have the divx player on your computer then use that to look at the animations, it is the only way that I could see them.

Mychelle, your work is tottally fantastic. I really like your tribute to Marilyn Monroe. Very impressive and excellent work!

A shame :(  She sure is beautiful.

As for the V2 character, if you had changed the name to something else it probably would have been left in the store.  Others sell "look-a-likes", but they change the name.
