You wouldn't happen to be doing a promo for South Beach Diet would you? Say, a before (this one) and after (the previous one) type of thing? :D
Looks good madmouse. |

Thanks Guys,
How's this for ironic.....
I spent Friday morning modelling 'Fate Boy's' ankles, then went to work, stepped on a piece of wood and turned my ankle over using my full weight! I'm now on crutches with damage to my achilles tendon!
So I could be off work for a little while (lots of trueSpace time :banana: )

You take your time over your projects Steve but the end result is always worth it.

I wonder if Caligari still have any plans to support it, many others are offering support now... |

Yup, me too although I dusted it off yesterday and had some fun in model side. Seems like a wasted opportunity to me. great device.
Anyway, back to your thread-how's the foot? |

Anyway, back to your thread-how's the foot? Not so bad thanks mate. No real pain if I'm sitting (like infront of a PC running trueSpace ;) ) but standing/walking is very painful. Guess I'll just have to stay here :D |

Woo, I almost missed that you started a new WIP !
Looks great so far, and I'm really curious how the head will turn out!
(now, don't become lazy and just attach the Jackson head...doubt he would appreciate that ! ;) ) |

One question, what would his nail clippers look like?:D |

Wow nice work as always Madmouse! Nothing to critique. The head looks great and I really like the way you handled the transition from shoulders to neck! :banana: |

Thanks guys, I must admit I'm pretty pleased with him so far.
Now all I've got to do is learn about rigging in TS (gulp!) |

That is awesome mouse. Although he is scary, who I'm really scared of is the guy who put the collar on him.
This is an example of some really excellent modeling. |

Nice, the likeness with the Troll is spot on! :D
Will be interesting to see what you'll do with "Big ugly" when you've rigged and textured it! |

Phew! I'm glad that people are starting to recognise this chap. I was starting to think I was way out.

Looks superb, and I'm sure you're not burdened with the hundred zillion+ polygons that went into the real thing! Can't wait to see textures! |

Well, following a couple of days with a steep learning curve as I get used to TS7's bone system and then Headus UV layout (both of which turned out to be a joy to use BTW), and then another couple of days texturing. I'm finally back with an update.
Just the head and collar so far. The textures come for a wide range of sources there's a bit of elephant, some rhino, a smattering of gorilla, a pinch of human and, believe it or not, some mud and gravel to?
The textures are a little rough in places, but 'fat boy' was never meant to be viewed in close up like this (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it:D)
Comments and crits please guys
