Thomas1 and Thomas2 Comparison!

Alright!

Got the Thomas2 model all colored up...



And, as I promised, here is a comparison photo...


As you can see, there is quite a difference between the two models.

I think Thomas2 is more realistic all the while maintaining his cartoon feeling.

I guess I would say the new model is more professional. His eyelids, nose and mouth (to include teeth and tongue) are more detailed and actually part of the face, which is different from the old model as I build those out of individual sphere's. I also modeled shoe laces, which is something I painted on in the old model! His body is more rounded and not so square. I've also gave him different clothes to help him stand out from his alter ego, T-Boom.

All in all, I am very happy with this new model. I'm going to work on his hair a little more, mainly just going to make it thicker so that probably won't be all that noticeable. When that is done I will post another pic.

The end result of this little experiment is that it has convinced me I need to re-work all the old models with this new technique. I know, that is going to push my movie back quite a bit but I really don't fell like I have a choice. This new model is better and the characters deserve to be the best that I can do.

It is the best thing for the movie.

So, like I said. I'm going to tweak this new model a little more and when that is done I will start the next model!
