Minimate Labs

I thought I had a self-aggrandizing thread for promoting my works in here but couldn't seem to find it with the search. Maybe it's about time I started one. :)

I'd like some feedback on my Minimate related creations and I'm too lazy to add and maintain a commenting system at Minimate Labs. (Actually I'm afraid of little Bobby Tables and the wrath he could inflict.) So I put it to you folks of the 'verse. Would you be so kind? :D

Minimate Labs

In my latest post I've been developing my skills with Blender and created a '90s Cyclops' Minimate that I can pose and animate. Here are a couple of the renders.

There's also a short animation, but I can't seem to embed that here. You'll have to go to the post. There are also full desktop sized versions there as well.

I feel so dirty.

Ivan! That looks AWESOME! Really sharp! And so accurate. I'm really impressed man.

I don't have the bandwidth at the moment to view your animation - but i'll check it out as soon as i do.

In the meantime - these are becoming my new wallpaper :)

A+ work man!

Do you take requests? I'd love to see some 'unreleased' minimates given the Blender :thumbsup:

EDIT: Ok - the animation was short enough for me to load up - Very slick buddy!

First thing I thought was,<irony> 'wow'</irony>, Ivan created a red optic blast and added it to the photo he took of a Cyclops mate. <irony>'How incredible'. That's so worth posting!</irony>

Then I realized two things.

First: That's not a photo.

Second: I am unworthy.

Thanks everyone. I'm going to try and keep all my self promotion in this thread from here on out. :) ...well, in my signature too. ...and my avatar. ...maybe Twitter too. ...perhaps a DeviantArt page as well?

I doubt I'll make a longer Cyclops animation in the near future. But on long enough timelines all probabilities converge to 1.0. Right now I'm going to focus on building up a character library. Maybe I'll try to reproduce the Marvel poster that's being included in the latest packs. Every time I finish a new figure, I'll generate a few renders for the site and link them here.

Thanks for the positive feedback too. It's good to know I'm on the right track with these. Now I just have to figure out how to add more hours to the day.

I'm starting a series of Minimate renderings on Minimate Labs. It's called Site 23-Baker. The first one, titled 'Survey', is up on the site now. This one is pretty simple, but they'll get more complex as time wears on.

I'm going to try and post two a week, Sundays and Wednesdays.

Surprisingly, I've actually been able to keep the two-a-week schedule. The latest render (#6) was posted today.

I realize it's hard to follow the series chronologically if you're jumping in late. The site isn't built for that (yet). Here are all the Site 23-Baker posts so far. (Larger images in the links.)
