[WIP]The Jaguar & The Mouse (A 6min short)
« on: June 01, 2010, 05:01:54 am »

So I guess you all have probably noticed me posting about some short that I'm planning to make.Well this is it-
THE JAGUAR & THE MOUSE
A jaguar spares the life of a mouse.Little did he now that that very mouse will save his life from poachers.(Kinda similiar to the lion and the mouse fable)

CHARACTERS

This will be the big strong agile jaguar.He may look hard hearted on the outside,but when he spares the mouse's life this shows what a softy kitty he is.
This mouse always seems to get into trouble like being chased by a bulldog,crashing into a beenest or landing on a jaguar.But besides all that he's quite brave and believes one good turn deserves another.
This bulldog probably has cat relatives because he really hates mice!
These two poachers love to catch jaguars.Too bad their scared of mice! :P
Just a bird that always flys into things.ANYTHING!

Hey... these guys look pretty good all around... but I think I like the dog the best! The jag's pretty cool, too, but where's his tail?

I love the jaguar!

The paws seem a little strange though- have a go at making them bigger or smaller.

You know better than I do.

you need to work on your models a bit more. even 3 hours more work on each one of them will benefit u really well. they are really good but not quite great. but ic the potential in you to make your style fantastic. im not trying to knock your work at all. i know youve blown through like 3 animations in the past like 2 months and your progress is well on its way. but i think you should slow down just a tad on this one and make the quality much better.

Great stuff and good progress.  I like how you're keeping the models nice and simple, that will definitely help your project stay fresh and move along quickly!

Hey everyone!!Still working on the project!
By the way I had used BOB IT's f8ce script to make the bodies for the poachers so I think he should have the credit. :) :)

HIHOSILVER:You're right!Keeping models simple is the way to go!And the more simpler the models the more better their morph targets for their facial expressions look!

Below are some progress so far
