Alkathosk - Minlis WIP (3D Cartoon Character Design WIP)

Image

This is the character I'm going to make. He is part of my Alkathosk project or mini webseries made entirely, or mostly, in trueSpace, a project testing to see if tS is a viable cheap method for a production worthy of selling.

So far I've started the asteroid where these characters live in a previous WIP, including one of the characters called Krahli. If you want more info, you can visit my blog site and check out more info on the project! You can even collaborate, the more I organize it.

How is "Alkathosk" pronounced?

I tried, but kept spitting all over myself.

Nice concept. Though I did think he had some long thing growing out of his ear when I first saw it. :)

:D Strange disease, whatever was growing out of his ear!

Started working on the modelling.


My TS has a strange error where I have to drag the mouse on soft select or paint select on WS to select geometry. I can't just click and select whatever.

I wish there would be a quick fix for this somewhere, as I have had trouble fixing it permanently... I have done cold layout/toolbars/script reinstalls, momentarily fixing it when i reset the default context and do cold reissues, but after some use it has the same error... This error reflects on past .CTX backups when previously it didn't...

Anyway! I have Minlis on a livespace. You can either visit my space and go to the Alkathosk Portal, then then into the Minlins - Build area or directly go to:

//190.24.111.140/1114

!
Try not do change anything!

If you can't select or click anything, or only a few things, then just restart trueSpace and you should be ok. I get that all the time, I'm not sure what exactly it is that causes this...

I couldn't fix the problem.. But I found that it isn't too much of an issue if I use the widget or move faces, points or edges as if I had a Softimage system. (click on item to drag, click select and modify with widget). Then the paint select can only be used for exactly that, paint select.. and when i want to add or deselect painted faces, i select the item, then hold the CTRL or SHIFT button then deselect accordingly.

I haven't had a very productive weekend, many friends and good time.. but sometimes that's needed to keep on nerding it out healthily!

So here is a little update:

I'm loving the other entries, and it's going to be a hard vote! Very good.
