Here's some of that thesis progress. This is, or rather will be, the Knockout - one of the characters in Alex's and my collaborative project. The body is still being made at the moment, and parts of the head are obviously still in progress, but I thought it was high time to prove that I haven't been sitting on my butt all summer. Well okay, I do sit on my butt quite a bit, but it's usually in front of Maya so it evens out.

Looks terrific as always, Greg. :) Did you render these in mental ray or renderman??
Can't wait to see the rest!
Thanks Kim, it is a mental ray render. I <3 mental ray.
Hey Man, glad to hear things are going well. Maybe we can hang out while your in the Bay. As always good stuff!
Looking super duper fantastic! I'm really looking forward to this thesis!
Dude your stuff is just awesome. I have a couple questions if you don't mind...do you Box model, or edge extrude?
and the method you use, is it taught and ringling?
and do you use image planes as well or just wing it?
also how long does it usually take to model your characters??
Thanks you guys. Darrin, here are some answers to your questions:
Box vs Edge modeling - I use both. I seem to box model mostly when I'm laying something out, but usually switch to extruding edges when I'm doing a final version of a model.
Ringling taught me the basics, but I have learned a lot from my internships on proper modeling and topology techniques. Practice also really helps me improve.
I use image planes whenever I have a drawing that I want to hit, unless it's something really easy and fast. The amount of time it takes me to model a character varries, this one took me a few weeks until it started shaping up the way I wanted. In contrast, the John Silver model I did last summer took me two weeks for the entire model. The time it takes is usually dependent on how much there is for me to figure out, with this model I didn't know exactly how I wanted her to look, so I did a lot of playing around before I arrived at something.
Hope this helps!
hey..thanks for the explanation... I've asked this to alot of modelers I admire cause I always feel like they are so fast cause I'm very slow..it took me a year to complete the Human Anatomy "Freedom of teach" DVD model..well mostly because I kept coming back to it after months of resting (plus I was a newborn back then) But I guess I learned alot
Since though, I've been really sucky at it.... but as you say keep practing is the only way to get better
Well thanks again
hot stuff peltz
