Old and New Rocky Comparison!

Hey guys,

I was reading up on character rigging when I realized that I haven't done an old/new Rocky model comparison.

So, let's take a look...


Alright. So, you have the same differences as with all the other updated models, and that is that the updated Rocky model looks more realistic while retaining her "cartoon" feel.

To me, the biggest difference between this updated model and the others is this character was deliberately made to look older than her previous version. Why did I want her older? Because she works for NASA's Near Earth Object Center and she can't look 12. How did I make her look older? I gave her lipstick and dressed her more like a young adult. Her character works the night shift so she can dress a little more casual. Her shirt has a wider collar and you can see the little red straps of her bra. I gave her a short shirt and waist hugging, form fitting jeans and you can see a little of her belly. I also added some glasses and messed up her hair a little more to accent her character's inner nerd.

Overall, I think this is the most radically different model when compared to version 1.0. It took me a while to finish this model. Most of this was due to the Halloween holiday but a small part was due to my deciding how far to go when trying to make her look older.

I think I managed to do that while keeping this a kid friendly film.

Now, back to character rigging.

Ugggggg. :|
