Moom Superheroes!

The idea of this task was to get us used to the idea of different rigs and posing characters. Unfortunately, I missed the lesson on this, but I managed to find out what the task was and watched the video tutorial that was put onto myuca for us. Before I started, I got myself familiar with all the controls and rigs for the different joints. I think that what made it difficult was the glitch in the scene file- mine appeared with no rig icons for the head and shoulders, so it confused me, but i found out from the following lesson that by reloading the scene file, it will appear- and sure enough it did, which made the other poses i made a lot easier!!!

The task was to take the moom character that was prepared for us and to pose it based on a superhero or any dynamic character pose.

To start off, I decided just to go for a very simple pose to get the hang of it...

This didn't look too great for me, so I tried putting him in a scene with the character he was slightly based on to see if that made any difference!!!

Ok, so a couple of days after posing this character, I went back to the file, stared at it for a while and decided that I wasnt happy with the pose and knew I could do a lot better.... so I did :)

Here's moom trying to impersonate superman!!








This next image is my favourite. After the superman pose, I found a ninja image on the internet and thought id give it a go posing the moom as if it was jumping through the air. I was very happy with this, then thought to make it more challenging, I'd try and do a karate-style pose. This pose proved to be more difficult, like i imagined, but after some effort and trial and error, i think i managed to grasp it. Then I decided that they couldn't just be posted on here alone, so, here's the final scene!!!....
