This is a character named Bailey. She is fun loving, loves to be with her friends and dance. I started developing this character in 220 and wanted to update some features and textures. I can't wait to animate it.

Here's the slide show with the character development phases and 3D modeling screen shots.

Shaping Up - Revised Script

Some revisions in the story line...Main changes are:
• Flashback to Junior's childhood, we meet his older brother. Sets precedent that Junior expects to be tall like his brother.
• Obstacle: Junior at the grocery store, trying to reach something on the shelf
• Obstacle: Junior gets on the stretcher machine at the Gym...but it doesn't work
• Obstacle change: Junior after 2 months of working out sees if he's grown by standing next to a growth chart at the gym.
• A few minor details scattered throughout...

Maquette...

This is the armature for my maquette. Clay will cover the aluminum foil and wire, to form a detailed and sculpted model of my character...not a baked potato...

Update: I decided to develop another character named Bailey for our 2nd project (I will also model Junior from "Shaping Up"), so I had to revise this maquette to fit the new model.

Bowling Ball

Here's my bowling ball attempt. Still have some minor glitches with deceleration and fuzzy rendering detail. I'll try different render settings and see if it improves.
