Schedule!!! AHHHHHH 25/01/08

HEY JEFF!! I think we were being at bit ambitious with what we wanted done by monday, however acorrding to our schedule we are right on track with what we needed to do. I think our extra time will come in rigging because I think I allocated to much time to rigging in the schedule and we can use that extra time to concerntrate on either the weighting or the animation. Also are we having the characters all one colour?

Let me know what you think!

yeah i thought purple and brown were our inspiration? :p maybe do your one a baby blue colour? something like that?
I fort our key goal in the characters was to make them look like they have been built using plasticine? Which is why i still have doubts over the clothing.

Don't worry about doing the layout of the bugs. It'll be easier using the body of my one, cutting the head off and then building a head for it and 'sewing' it on lol. So just have look at the heads and post on the blog ones you like and we pick one we both happy with.

Lol I thought we were going for a more flushed away look and a more purple and brown storyline! Well because we are going for a plasticine feel the clothes wouldn't move anyway so it won't be like we would have to animate the clothes moving cause it would take away from the fact it is supposed to look like plasticine. I think it would help tremendosly if we kept it one colour though and use tones from that one colour. I think your right about using pink and blue, and i think your so close with the plasticine look on your character!!! it does look squidgy and that it has been made from plasticine.

Did you use lambert? does it have a bit of a glow?

We can just leave the way our characters have come out because I dont think either one of us really wants to start again!

yeh i think thats good idea- i was thinking, by the time your character has the all blue colour flesh, they will look pretty similar anyways. And they also have the same features so i think they will look like they belong together :) which is good. My head really hurts tho and i got work i nfew mins :( not gonnna be fun night.

It is jus a lambert and glow is on about 0.50 or 0.050. it's very subtle. see you monday! Remember, you work o nthe bugs head, cos i think we can jus use the body we have but add extra arms n a pair of wings to them. easy peasy.
