Heres a 3D model I've been working on recently. Its a Aruruu model lol. I'm making it in 3d studio max, and this'll be my 2nd model XD; I have much to learn, I really shoulda saved Aruruu for when I get better lol...

I'm gonna make her a few accessories and clothes, I just started with a swimsuit because its easy. Not even the swimsuits finished yet lol, still got texture to do XD;

innominate · 2007-12-11, 09:40

Omg, 3-D! O_O

Diaboso · 2007-12-11, 10:01

-.- 3D programs are hard as all get out to use

Zero Shinohara · 2007-12-11, 10:13

Damn it, Satsumaru.

I'll give you 6 1/8 PVC figures and 16 limited edition Daimakuras for a third of your talent.

Seriously, though, that model is great. I just think you should make her legs a little... lollier.

Heres Aruruu with the actual finished swimsuit. The previous one was just budget basic colours from 3dmax itself lol. This finished one is fully textured, double sided and has cloth modifyer added and also outlined XD;

I also took some time to pose her a bit

She is Aruruu from Utawarerumono (spelled right?

).

by the way, nice 3D ^.^

geki~ · 2007-12-12, 10:49

Lovely 3D :3 The only thing is, uhh when you look from the side, her head is like massive. Maybe you could lower the upper part of her head a bit cause it looks a bit odd (specially on the big picture).

Ice Climbers · 2007-12-12, 11:33

I concur, lovely 3D model or Aruru xD

Head is a bit too big, as geki said, but not an overal problem =]

celcius · 2007-12-12, 20:30

Eet ees amazing... *.*
Omochi kaeri~!!

IMO the head's pretty fine. Satsumaru was going for SD right?

bigdave · 2007-12-12, 23:09

*pachi pachi*

kakoi now satsumaru is tackling the 3D world XD
and its 3D aruruu! :3

Yea i can see Some SD aspects of it

Strages · 2007-12-13, 07:47

ghehe nice looking :P

i am myself also doing a study into 3d,, however i mostly work with autodesk maya

u should try however i heard from various people who already worked with max that they like that better... its just what u know best

if u want to improve your models or the likeness of it build it in nurbs and place your own nice homemade textures on it ( i am sure u would see it looks astonishing if u completed it

) (dont be shy with pollys if it is for this sort of purposes, but always rememeber try to get out as much as you can with the polys you have :P )

btw u use bones and rigging for the changing of the poses? if not find out how and get to master it ( my self i know nothing about it at that part :P ). It will increade the likeness of the poses even more and it will give you more poses in less time

GL !

Yeah I noticed the head was quite big too. I originally intended for a normal proportioned Aruruu model. But then I followed my reference schematic drawing that I did, which was SD lol!! So ya..came out all chibi-ish in a way XD;

Muahahha, thanks bigdave XD! I'm hopefully gonna be making some more 3D models over this holiday break. To tune of my skills with it, and the sheer fun of turning my all time favorite anime chars to 3D XD;

Awesomeness XD! I'll be starting to learn maya next year. Hopefully maya has all the glitchiness of 3d max fixed up... so...many glitches argh =_=; Anyways, I cant wait to learn maya because then I'll know how to use at least 2 different 3D modelling software XD!(if maya doesnt get intergrated into 3ds, or the other way around).

Actually I've learnt that nurbs are very hard to shape the way you'd like them to go. The easiest way that i feel is to construct things out of simple polygons, then just use smoothing groups, or mabye a intergration of turbosmooth or mesh smooth(but that buffs up the poly count by a lot and lags the rendering process and makes it a pain to physique).

I think overall I'm just trying to aim for a not too high not too low poly count XD! Aruruu's body was originally just under 3000 polygons. But I decided to up it to about 7000 to get slightly more smoothness without the lag kicking in yet XD!

And yeah XD! I rigged Aruruu with the bones lol, the physiquing part was a nightmare that I'll never forget x_x;;

Strages · 2007-12-14, 08:02

mmh yes i am just recently working with nurbs and indeed i also think polygons are easier in someway. However i think ( still finding out ) that u just have to think in an other way about the construction of an object by seeing the curves and patches before even making the object u want. The great pre of nurbs is just that it has infinite normals so it will render beautifully.

lol that will indeed be a pain.. the rigging and stuff.. suc6

and cya

Satsumaru · 2007-12-20, 10:02

Heres the first of a 2 piece drawing I'm doing. I'm trying out some new styling techniques here lol. Not too satisfied with the end result, but ya, its experiment XD;

Satsumaru · 2008-01-04, 10:18

This threads been empty for quite some time now lol. I've been quite distracted recently by ehh..holiday events XD; But yeh, I managed to scoop some time off this holiday and work on another 3D model for fun

Anyways, heres my newest 3D model presented in a animation (well, kinda XD; )

Thank you XD;

That was made and rendered in autodesk 3d studio max 8. I took it into adobe after effects 7 to do some touch ups, then I took it into macromedia flash 8 to convert it to swf. The quality dropped down quite a bit from the original tho
