Mobius The Animated Series

[Lynchenberg]

I admit I'm being an impatient, rude, unreasonable a$$hole, but in spite of that, the designs don't work. I'm speaking as someone who studied for four plus years at Sheridan, the hardest animation school to get into in the world. I'm not claiming to be a master artist or character designer by any stretch. My professors frequently tear me a new one, and rightfully so. But I do know more than the average person about this stuff. I would do some sketches to show things like appealing shape, proportion that works, weight, construction, etc, but I do question if it would be worth my time. Would they be looked at? Is this even going to get past the modelling stage? Is it worth taking time away from my group film, portfolio, and schoolwork?

There's absolutely nothing in it for you. I'm ok with that. I may have to pay people in the future and that would be for things I have no idea how to do, like sound design.

When I completed Sonic Fan Film I took a break from doing anything Sonic related and continued to work as a freelancer until now.
I've been studying 3D art for almost 7 years so far,
I am completely self taught but I did take a few classes.
I also have a mentor that works at Disney, he guided me on my long journey and for that I'm grateful for that.
I programmed for 2 years prior to learning 3D.

I've had a really cool Sonic story in my head since I first played Sonic 1. I'm going to combine what I learned over the years with the story that I have to hopefully create something cool.
Normally its a mistake to show much of the work in progress because it ends up looking lackluster. But I want people that are interested to understand and give their input to what actually goes on when creating 3D animation.

Whoever wants to help could help. But passion and skill has to be their, I get a lot of request to help on the project, the first thing I ask for is a portfolio. Then I ask if its something a person wants to work on and why would they want to work for no money.

Sonic is looking great! It's so satisfying to compare the latest picture of him to the one on the Facebook banner. You've even got the eyeshines now! *dances*

My only criticism is that his neck doesn't look convincing to me. Is it possible you could make it more like the neck you gave Sally?

(This is where you say that they actually have the exact same neck, and then I say, "D'OH!")

Actually Sonics neck went through a lot of modifications. I was thinking its a bit too thick at this angle, but every other angle I like the way it looks. Sally has a more feminine slender neck. I'll take it into consideration, I may do a 360 video of the character as I did before once I'm finished texturing.
I've mostly been doing the storyboard for the first episode, I'm amazed at how long its taken me to set up shots. A lot of back and forth in my head.

Working on rigging right now.
