Description:
This is my first submission, I tryed to create a model for a real time render engine like Unity3D wich conserve a 2D cartoon look. Some preliminary works can be found in my deviant art page (http://shadosk.deviantart.com/).
The model is fully rigged and skinned and use the rigify rig with additional deform bones.

Edited July 27, 2012I definitely agree with Matthew, this is such an amazing character model, but the rigging could use a bit more work, keep up the great work!

Edited July 27, 2012Thanks you, the rig was created with the rigify addon, extra bones were added to control tail, hair and face. Control for legs and arms can be found in the other layers of the armature.

Edited July 27, 2012Actually, the rigging works fine to me, not sure why you hid the Bone control for Leg and Arm rig though.

Edited July 27, 2012Ahem....this is incredible but...isn't it problematic with Akama game? this is looking just like a character ripped of from the game : /

Edited July 27, 2012After taking a look at their deviantart I highly doubt that it is. Seems like a bit too much work for a rip or whatever it's called.

Edited July 27, 2012Dumb question... how do you unhide the controls for the feet, legs, arms and hands? I'm looking all through the Outliner and I'm not seeing anything like that hidden. I see the rig on the last layer that shows everything visible but nothing drives the model.

Edited July 31, 2012Thank you for the link, I didn't know this site. I have also created a quick real time model viewer with unity3d here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/94872744/Cartoon/WebPlayer.html It requires the unity3d plugin.

Edited August 13, 2012Nice model but the rig is a bit confusing. Well at least the sliders in the UI are.

Edited August 20, 2012Very nice model!! may you release the unity project? how do you achieve that cartoon shading in unity?
When i opened this file with a compilation of Blender downloaded from graphicall.org in this Revision r50042, i get all textures in black except the hair and nothing what i tried fixed it.

Edited January 10, 2013Awesome. But I looked at the rigging and it is rather... 'hairy'. I am not expert in rigging, but I'd be curious to know why some bones are around. I wouldn't have expected some of them. Not sure what are their specific roles... I can see that some are used to help for skinning setup (when for example you're splitting in children a bone for the arm...); some others to help in manipulating. I guess that when would come the time to export this for a game engine (for example), things could get tricky or expensive for the engine, no ? (unless you 'filter' the skeleton)

Edited January 11, 2013Thanks, indeed the rigging is not really optimal ^^. I use the rigify plugin for blender which generates an advanced humanoid rig with usefull features such as IK/FK switch for animation. When exporting the model to unity3D in fbx format, I use an option to export only deformation bones. It remove most of the manipulating bones. I have some extra exported bones (those whose names begin with Look*) which are used for a look-at-camera script in Unity.

Edited February 08, 2013Awesome. I just don't know how to texture it. I know, I'm a noob =P. But if anyone would help me, I'd gratefully apreciate it, thanks =)

Written March 21, 2014I seem to be having a problem with this blend file. I am currently using Blender 2.67 on Mac OS, and when I try to open up the file, the model loads, and the images are packaged into the blend, but when I go into textured mode, the character mesh, except for the hair, appears black. I get the feeling there is a texture mismatch somewhere but I can't deduce where. Anybody who can shed some light on this?

Written July 07, 2014Mmm you first need to upgrade to 2.71. Its the latest version of blender. I believe the recent blender will work much better :)

There was some unnatural bending with the working arm but not badly noticeable.

WOW, great model. Thank you so much for sharing. Couple things, that I noticed but could be mistakes on my part. 1. There doesn't seem to be any rigging for the legs or arms. 2. There are some weight painting issues around the hair and neck region.
Just two quick things I noticed, again great model, thanks for sharing it.
