Simple comp test.


Added comment, 10/29/2013 - Well maybe not so simple, actually took awhile to create. It was done in Maya software with Michael Comet' muscle system (AKA mayaMuscle.) I modeled the Skeleton, then the outer skin. I tried several muscle plugins - and mostly failed - I had to simplify the original version because I made to many muscles and my computer couldn't handle it. So I ended up using cMuscle with just these general massive shapes that work under the skin to jiggle and slide under the skin. I did the rigging, cause that's just another thing I do. I created a bunch of walk/run cycles to learn and test out how to improve the rig/skin.

Well there ya go - A T.rex! I'm glad I did it.

Added comment 10/30/13 I thought I could read/reply to all the comments people made, very very nice! Thanks, I will keep trying...Now it's gone up to 31 pages though.

Please don't be mad if I missed you

It was made with Maya software you can have a free version of the rig here >>> joel3d.com/TrexSkeletonRig.htm… <<< skeleton only

11/01/13 THANK YOU for all the comments! I can't keep up, I hope you understand.

I am presently creating molds from a new T-rex find.
Starting with 53 pieces of the skull I will be molding and casting over the next two months to create a duplicate reconstructed skull for the client in order to put it center stage in the scientific spotlight! I have Maya but need some tips and direction. Very impressed with your work so far. There are a few alterations to your animation that I would like to suggest but not on a public forum. Contact me on robybraun@me.com.

Roby

Have you used maya's native muscle system before? Do you prefer Comet's system? I've never actually used muscles, mostly stuck with sculpt deformers and blendshapes.

joel3d In reply to ccs1989 [2014-01-25 17:00:56 +0000 UTC]

They are the same - M. Comet sold the plug-in cMuscle to Autodesk, who renamed it MayaMuscle. I think that it is very complicated to use, and I only use them occasionally.
