Evangelion: Sachiel W.I.P.
 
Hey guys and girls.
I'm currently working on a series of really short live action movies based on Evangelion.
You can see my first video HERE

The next one will be with the 3rd angel: Sachiel.
Here's a pic from the anime in case you don't know what sachiel looks like.


So I thought I'd post updates on my progress as I went. Hopefully some of you will find it interesting or useful.

Here's where I'm at right now:


This is the base mesh that I will take into zbrush for detailing and texturing.
It's still at a very early stage!
I did change the design a little bit, especially in those goofy lookin shoulder things.

If anyone has any suggestions for the overall project let me know!
Feel free to ask any questions too.
Peace :ywave:

EDIT: more details


EDIT2: Latest update! Walk cycle test!

That's great Kitagawa, so are you going to make another video like that one with Ramiel?

Thanks!
yup, that's the plan. Maybe a little longer this time though.
And hopefully with more special effects.

Wow, so you probably quite good at it now, can you do something like Mounty Oum's Dead Fantasy? That would be awesome!

haha, I dunno if I have the motivation for that kinda project.
That guy has some serious dedication to his work.

I'd rather stick to the 30 second clips lol.

hmmm, not sure yet.
Probably destroy some buildings, blow some shit up.
you know... just usual day to day activities for a giant monster.

Turning in for the night.
This is what I got so far:

redesigned some parts.
still have much work to do. I haven't even started the legs yet.

peace

Here is the latest update, don't know if anyone cares lol.



sorry about it being so dark!

I'm really impressed, though the bone accuracy is a bit off. The shoulders should be a bit more down the the ribs kind of wrap.
But I think this style is fitting for realism.

Where'd you learn 3D modeling, by the way? I need to get started in that area soon.

And I bet this was much harder than Ramiel lol.
Hundreds of vertices compared to like 6-24.

You should see him do more than a walk... his deformation is terrible lol.
I was really lazy when i rigged the guy... I honestly don't think I'll ever finish this one. :P

And I started learning modeling by myself. off the internet. Check out the cgsociety forums. a lot of useful information there.
I take a modeling course in college now though. But yeah, the internet is a good place to start.

here are my two favorite sites:
3D Total - The cg artists home page
Welcome to The Computer Graphics Society

let me know if you have any questions. Always glad to help out a fellow artist.
