I'll render an animation overnight.

did a quick render with no AA instead, check it out. Now I am gonna add an animated bump map that creates little ripple type movements that travel up the tentacle in the direction it is growing. It should look awesome. BTW Jakedudesk84life I can't wait for your LAN party tomorrow!

Forgot to post the video... It is in Divx

Heh, knew you could do it Colto. Looks great for a rough. Make the image of the end of the tenticle into your clip map and it's really look sharp. :)

WoW! I was just informed by my parents that we are going on vacation this saturday and will be gone for a week! I thought I was only half way through this challenge but I really only have 5 days left. It's time to kick it into high gear and get this thing done!

Mike, could u please create the final normal entries thread this Friday so that I may put my video in b4 I have to leave.

Mike, could u go ahead and create the "Final Normal Entries" Thread so that I will be able to post my final before I leave?

My Final Entry
 

My Final Entry. It can be found here: http://www.geocities.com/kccandjsmc/Final.zip

Colto,
your link is dead, try to check it.
Hope you have time for that.

I only had a week left to work as of last Saturday and then my parents grounded me and took the computer away so I didn't get it back until last night. So, I only had 3 hours to finish what I planned to do in 2 weeks. So I obviously had to cut some stuff and turn off AA. ;) Here is a list of what I did and learned from this project:

Textured,rigged,weight mapped, facial rigged,morphed,Setup-IK,And animated:
Lady,Guy,Werewolf,Creeper,Alien.(That was the hardest part by FAR! ;) )

Modeled: Kitchen and a tentacle

Found a new way to create a morphing curve in LW using a later version. (With much help from MeanPi2, Thank You so much!)

Learned: How to animate using bones and weightmaps,how to setup IK, How to Morph on a curve, and pretty much just all aspects of animation in general!

I can't thank SL enough for setting up these competitions. I know that since I have come here I have grown so much skill-wise. I hope that everyone else does well on their animation. Good Luck!

Right click the link and choose Save Target As and It will work.

I just wish I would have had more time to do this project, I really wanted the guy to pick her up and throw her across the room :(

Colto, I love your concept man! I think its great... especially the way the voices seem to fit your characters, and the tentacle thing is sweet. You gonna go ahead and finish it?? Wanna see the chic get thrown across the room...:D

For the amount you learned it's an impressive animation, Colto. I still love that tenticle growth, just wish you would have had time to incorporate it into multiple shots instead of one.

Good work,
And you got so much going on in there. You can go on with it if you want to. I agree with MeanPi2, some cuts, close ups, camera work would make the thing for that tentacle.

It did not DL with Opera, but Explorer did fine, different cookie settings I guess.

nice work there, thats good work - nice to see fresh talent.
