More Face Robot tests

So, have had a little play with face robot in the evenings,and to be honest, I wasnt expecting much at all.

However, I am bowled over and besides myself with the opportunities that will now arise as a direct result of its relative ease….

I was not at all happy with the pipeline for getting the face cap into Maya, so did a spot of googling…

This looks like it ticks a few boxes

Pellet Damage

Craig — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 23:00:57 +0000

In the name of research, my air rifle was put to use today….

Needless to say, it was a spare 40th head.

HOWEVER, the battle damaged Atomic Man body (it was already in a bad way when I found it!) really is the worse for wear. But, rest assured… its all for a good cause….. I am trying to look dev a character and I want the head in particular to look like it has spent a fair while being used as Air Rifle Fodder before making his break for freedom.

Scanning Tom Stone

Craig — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 14:11:47 +0000

I get quite a few e mails about the scanning process. I guess they end up at this site due to a google or Yahoo search result.

Anyway, here is a little video showing a ypical scan!

New Tom Stone Body

Craig — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 22:05:57 +0000

Well, I was watching an auction for a Tom Stone body, and all of a sudden the prices went sky high, so I stood back and watched. I didnt win.
Good job too, it wasnt worth what it went for.

I was bidding because I wanted to get a tatty Tom Stone so that I didn’t have to break my one for scanning. But because lost that auction, I decided to use mine anyway. Needless to say, I didnt break him. I wanted to see what could be done in a none destructive manner.

This is more than adequate for my needs…. I am really pleased with the relationship between the Next Engine and Geomagic. Its as if they were made for each other
