"Plumber"

[richard_rosenman]

Hey guys;

Some of you may know that we produced our first short film last year called "Plumber" and it is only now that I am able to post stills from it! (Sorry, we STILL can't post the actual film due to licensing contracts but you can find it on the Siggraph 2003 DVD among other places...)

But, at least you guys will get to see the freshly posted pics first. And of course, all rendered with VRay.

Nice but there is a bug where the arm bend (elbow). Not so good adjustment of the envelopes of the bones.
But the rendering is the best. Now I work at my own short video clip but it is so difficult to do everything on my own: modeling, texturing, animation, video edition......need long long time
And thank you very much for your character rendering technique. It is the best. No bugs.

WOOHOO, This is amazing

EXCELENT WORK Can you comment on all the VRAy related techniques used?

alkonst: I think the error you see is most likely intentional to simulate older flabby skin that we will all have one day It does follow the fold of the arm nicely and if you look close there isn't any faceting going on.

It does seem like elbow joint is somewhat messed up. But i think thats the heel and ankle we can see right behind the elbow thats confusing...

Great great work!!!!

I think i saw a part on a TV show called MEDIA TV, maybe Im just talking crazy, I like the watter effect ¿RealFlow?

[richard_rosenman]

It's on the Animation Theatre DVD - the one's you have to buy for $60.00. It has been aired on Canadian television, as well as festivals so you may have seen it here or there....

(Yes, tons of Realflow in it)
