Character Animation: "Der Griesgram"

[nully]

great work - as you mentioned the only thing u 'really' need is coat thats drenched by the rain.

Nice work, well done.

Really like the first image in your post. Love hear about setting for jacket material and lighting setup.

Thanks for all the Comments guys. I burned the files with a Menu on a cd/dvd and send them together with my drawings and renderings to the school - wish me luck.

@Joe, TRGraphics: Thanks guys! Totally agree with the raindrops.
@cocolas: Cool you like it, AA is simple two level 1/3 most of the time. I use simple two level cause i have very small Details in the Tree and i use glossy Effects on the Griesgram's Coat. (It's faster than adaptive AA in this Case) In the last Sequence AA is 1/4.
@tom: Yeah Tom - you have to show me ZBrush2 soon - i want to see what i can do with it on my Griesgram! New Vray Version works like a charm with it!
@nully: Thanks! Agree with the drenched coat - i already painted a wetmap in Bodypaint2 but it's not visible @ all. It's also lack of the rain.
@Chris Brown: Here you go - glossy effects on the coat and the wetmap i talked about (notive i often use color correct - i like that plugin.)



@richard_rosenman: Thanks Man. It means a lot from you Sir. Watched your Plumber Animation and loughed to tears - really wonderful Short.
But concerning CGtalk - i hope you havent seen it there cause i didn't post it there for now
@oconv: Thanks, never thought about that but now when you say it...
@mc-escher, tammo, gafl, J_Bug, zuliban, gl0w: Thank you guys - you really made me feel good!

This Animation is finished for now - will fix weak points l8er (maybe with the new Vray). Now i have to finish other things first.
cya guys!
