Hello everyone: I don´t worked in this project on last months. I'm actually disconnected from it and I'm not sure I will work later. I give this notice to make known this situation and if anyone wants to continue it. I appreciate the opportunity to worked in this project. I learned very much from members who kindly guided and helped me. Thank you very much. Cheers... ---------------------------------------- Hola a todos: Por diversos motivos no he realizado nada de este proyecto en los últimos meses. En realidad actualmente estoy bastante desconectado de él, y no estoy seguro de que pueda retomarlo mas adelante. Doy este aviso para evitar mas retraso en su realización, o al menos dar a conocer su situación y por si alguien desea continuarlo. Sinceramente les agradezco la oportunidad de haber podido contribuir -al menos un poco- en este proyecto, y por todo lo que he aprendido de los miembros que amablemente me han guiado y ayudado. Gracias. Un saludo.

Stanislas69: Thank you very much for new UV image. I thinked Cheetah_UV_paintig was OK. Sorry, I was wrong... Enrique: Thank you very much. I will try to repair UV image like you write on last post #37, but a I think that will be more easy make a new better unwrap, like you write on post #30. So, I'm on it....

Look at the zip... It´s this do you want? Cheetah NEW.zip

stanislas69: Thank you very much for comment about head size. Sure, the Cheetah_render show a big head... Anyway, I followed edge´s neck and I don´t found any mistake. I don´t know what happen...

Lion Kanzen y stanislas69: Cheetah´s head seems stretched when it´s walking. When sitting neck grows. The same happens to the ears that fold back when stalking. I made lost weight neck. The head is well sized Cuando el gepardo anda la cabeza parece que se estira. Cuando está sentado el cuello crece. Lo mismo le ocurre a las orejas, que se pliegan hacia atrás cuando acecha. Le adelgacé el cuello. La cabeza está bien de tamaño Front looks good ... y de frente se ve bien... Enrique: There is a mistake on neck (Cheetah_mistake). When Blender texture sets this neck mistake, which does not belong to any area unwrap texture. When I try to delete this mistake Blender does strange things and spoil another paint areas. El cuello tiene este error (Cheetah_mistake). Cuando Blender coloca la textura en el cuello se crea este defecto.o, que no corresponde con ninguna zona de la textura unwrap. Cuando intento eliminarlo con la herramiente de pintura de textura de Blender, esta hace cosas extrañas llegando a pintarse zonas ya acabadas. Cheetah NEW.zip

This is the (cheetah.blend)zip Thank you very much Stanislas69... Cheetah.zip

Sorry, I can´t upload cheetah.blend file. The post show this notice: Error You aren't permitted to upload this kind of file I need help Thanks.

Hello: I have been working on the Cheetah texture, using 2D graphics program and the Blender´s texture paint tool. This tool don´t have pecision and sometimes make some serious mistakes on areas already completed. It may be the unwrap, but I do not ... After two months without significant progress, I uploading the cheetah´s files. Perhaps someone can be to continue and finish. I don´t know make details on few triangles. I think maybe my working way is wrong. I think I don´t know how finished Hola: He estado trabajando en la textura del gepardo tanto con un programa gráfico 2D como con la con la herramienta de pintura de textura de Blender. Esta última, por lo que he comprobado, no permite mucha pecisión y a veces dá unos errores graves que estropea zonas ya terminadas. Puede que sea debido al unwrap, pero no lo se... Después de dos meses de demora, sin avances significativos, y sin perspectiva de cambio subo, los archivos con los que he trabajado y en la situación en que han quedado por si alguien quiere y puede continuar y acabarlo. No se como lograr detalle en tan pocos polígonos y puede que mi forma de trabajar no sea adecuada. No me veo capaz de continuarlo...

Hello... This is the last Cheetah (attached)... Triangles: 888 (444 with mirror modifier not applied). I think edgeloops in knee and ankle are right, but can be more separated ...

Hello gordont! Wow! You have a nice works in your Blog. I like it...

LAVS, Micket and Mythos-Ruler, thanks for nice comment. Micket: You are right. I need change my mind. There are triangles not faces. You are right too in triangles are troubles with modifiers. In only texturing I dont know certain, because I texturing on a mesh with subsurf modifier has been applied. I saw the tiger and wolf models (awesome) but... I didn`t saw 3 loops in bones join... Mythos_Ruler: You are right. I can and I must get it below 1000 T So, I'm on it....

Hello Tomas, You have a very awesome painting. Are very impressive looks... Nice works. Cheers...

New Cheetah #2 - See attached images: Cheetah_2_bones.png Loops: I think that is the bones posing; Edge = bone (left). Therefore there are 3 loops in bones join (right). Faces: 762 (> 700), is a problem? Cheetah_2_UV.png Change of UV image by using better the 512x512 png space, improve details of texture and included new loops. I think I will use this pic in texture: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Herberstein_Gepard_048.jpg I don´t texturing until new UV image will be approved. Thanks for comment/improvements or anything witch I forgot or mistake...

Hello Micket: Thanks for your comment and suggestion. You have a very nice model of animals. I visit your posts to learn and improve and you give me help. Thanks. When I started in Blender I made triangles and quads equally, but the triangles anytime make trouble with modifiers or texturing. Now my way is make quads usually, and make triangles is an exception. Anyway, for cheetah #2 I made a new UV image by using better the 512x512 png space. I will thank you comments an suggestions when comming soon I will post it.

Thanks LaPuente, SDM y Sanderd17 for kind comments. Sorry, about texture I think is an overcome issue... I´m just working in cheetah #2 and I will use pics recomended by Ludo38 and Enrique... I thanks learned take care using pics in this texture (at moment i think it´s never mind) and I will use free pics in the future because I learned where I can find its.

Hello, thanks for your nice comment.... About texture origin: I make the texture. Using the UV image (attached) export from Blender in 512x512 png. In Gimp I use a piece for a cheetah skin pic from internet (attached) and I make a fotomanipulation Finally, I painting skin hole and some spots with Gimp. Gracias por la buena acogida... Acerca de la textura que usé: Exporté de Blender una imagen UV (adjunta) de 512x512 en png. En Gimp usé una parcela de una foto de piel de gepardo de internet (adjunta) y fuí cubriendo con ese trozo el area UV. Finalmente, pinté los huecos de la piel y algunos lunares o puntos con Gimp.

Sorry..., I repeat my reply to lucho, now in english: Hello lucho: I visited your DeviantArt site and I have observed your focus are robots (or mechas), it are very detailed and perfects. Many works has an interesting and nice enviromental, like a shadow scene or mistery scene ... Cheers...

Hola lucho... Ya te visité en D.A. y veo que tienes a los robots (o mechas) como tema principal, y los tienes muy detallados y perfeccionados. En algunos trabajos hay un ambiente muy bien conseguido y atrayente, como de drama o misterio... Saludos...

Hello Jeru, Thanks and nice to meet you... !

Hola Lucho. Muchas gracias. ¿Puedes decirme tu dirección en D.A. para que la pueda visitar?

I would like to try to model a cheetah... I prefer model an animal because it´s not necesary historical references, and I think it´s make more easy to begin... Thanks... So, I'm on it....

Now I´m visit the forus and learning the map and rules. However... I can make a 3D model. I think try with an animal ... In http://www.wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=15686 there is a list with some animals to modeling, called "MA", but the topic seems old. How can i know: who people is just modeling an animal? What animal? Thank you for your reply. Note: Wrote in english and spanish for better comunication. ----------- Estoy visitando el foro y familiarizándome con su funcionamiento, pero mientras... puedo intentar modelar a un animal. He visitado http://www.wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=15686 y hay una lista de animales catalogados como MA (para modelar) pero ese hilo parece antiguo y poco visitado Como puedo saber: ¿Que personas están modelando actualmente animales y que animales son? Gracias por responder... Nota: Escribo en inglés y español para evitar traducciones erróneas y poder comunicarme mejor.

Hello Gallaecio. Thanks for the information... Hello Mega Mania. Thanks. Nice to meet you too!
