OH NOES CHIBIS ARE TAKING OVER THE EARTH O.O

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

When I think (Chibi Final Fantasy). I think about Final Fantasy IX, and they didn't use big clown feet. :roll:

You're right, however, in FF7, i'm not sure small feet work well with the animations. you guys should try, though

And borde, yeah, that program's what i meant its epic

Agreed. Its an epic program..!

 

[Kudistos Megistos]

It's getting better 

I'd say that this head:

 

On this body:

Would look pretty good  :wink:

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

I tried to satisfy both worlds..
so i made the feet medium sized and the head bigger..
here is a W.I.P

I think its pretty good.. next step is to figure out how to get it into max



and take a look at my Vincent W.I.P
i think its quite hilarious.
XD

I know he is missing his face textures... at the moment..

but i just find him so cute
xD

 

[Kudistos Megistos]

Yeah, that Cloud looks better. :-D

And I agree about the cuteness of that Vincent model: I'm not quite sure what makes it cute, but...  :roll:

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

Tifa's done.
And when i say done.. ready for MAX.. not done, done.
Its really hard to make it look this model look chibi.. i even used Borde's Tool...
to no avail.. this is the best i could do for now..

i can't even get barret into kimera... well the PRP one........ and Cid, his feet are curled up.. so its going to take some rearranging to fix...
I think i will do sephi next.
xD

 

[Kudistos Megistos]

Hmmm, she should be a little more super-deformed*, but besides that the Tifa model looks very good  

* I don't know whether it's just me, but Tifa always seemed to have less realistic proportions (bigger head/hair and feet) than the other characters

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

Alrighty here is a W.I.P
of sephi.. some details need to be changed.. but over all.. he looks like a kid.
xD

I modified tifa some more..
here are more shots..

and...
does anyone know why barret ends up like this when i open him in kimera

 

[BlitzNCS]

does anyone know why barret ends up like this when i open him in kimera

Kimera is loading an animation with barrets number of bones, but the animation isn't designed for batter. go to "Load Field Animation" and select one of barrets animations.

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

okay here are the W.I.P shots of the bombing mission (my favorites are Jessie and Barret) (and all main characters are done too)

What do you guys think..
bare in mind these are just W.I.P shots..  :wink:

also.. does anyone know which files the MP grunts and red MP grunts are?
Thanks

 

[Kudistos Megistos]

Hmm, that Jessie model looks very good, Perhaps the feet could be made a little smaller, but other than that....

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

i know.. its my favorite out of all of them
xD

 

[Kudistos Megistos]

Oh, and the Cait Sith model is nice as well  :wink:

For some reason, the other characters don't look as cute as Vincent when their faces are missing; Barret and Cid are pretty terrifying  :-o

Oh, and I think Sephiroth needs bigger eyes; his facial features are a bit odd for a chibi.

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

My skill is limited to kimera... so i can only size down.. i can't alter textures... i am going to mess with Barret... and see if i can get him to look..
less hilarious

xD


But first
i have to go eat lunch.. i am famished

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

More W.I.Ps I am going to edit them all once I get all the characters into chibi format (all the main and sub characters that is.. i am not sure when i will get around to the NPCs such as the shop owners and such) i will then edit the in max or blender.

I am going to edit all these models in MAX when i can..
I rather dislike Tseng's neck.. and his head is too small.. but i can't edit them separately in kimera..
So we all just have to wait until MAX


So just wondering.. is there anyone out there who is has a fair amount of knowledge about making/altering and applying textures.. who happens to be a chibi fan, that is willing to help?
cause some of the faces on these models... and some of the details are lacking..
and i don't have the skill to do it right..

And i need to learn how to import models into the game... if i take them out of kimera.. i am somewhat lost..
xD

Some of the taller models.. didn't convert to Chibi too well..
but i have to say.. my favorite is Elena.. in this batch.
 :wink:

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

So again.
Does any one know the files names for the
MP grunt and the Red grunt...

And thanks..
the only one.. that i am really not proud of is Barret...
i mean.. the tall ones i have to fix yeah... but barret came out really bad..
-.-


well anyways...

i can't get scarlet out of kimera.. cause her model is all crumpled..
-.-

its depressing i will try to rotate.. reposition and ultimately "fix" her later..


I tried to fix barret..
what do you guys think?

i fixed the gun just now.. i am just to lazy to upload a nother screen shot..
i am about to get some in game shots..
just to see..
you know?

I feel very idiotic..
but.. how do i apply the textures of the model..
you know those white blotches..
 how do i fix that in Kimera?

 

[Opine]

Everyone is looking really cute! Vincent, Jessie & Elena are my favs, I think. Great work here!

 

[Borde]

Ah... my beloved Jessie. The very first model I ever worked on (although I've got to admit it was half done to begin with). Looks really nice with that SD look  :lol: Good job.
As for Tseng, I'd suggest using the Slim button in order to make his neck fit better.

 

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

Better or worse?

And seriously...
The textures don't show up in kimera.. and when i use the new one... (kimera 9?)... i click apply texture.. and its not in the folder...
-.-

*feels like the newb  i am*
some one said i had to open something called an RSD in note pad..
would some one please elaborate... it didn't make sense to me..

[Makubex (Mendelevium)]

after                                                               before

Is this a better chibi.....
I am going to make the eyes bigger soon.. and i know the lighting is bad..
but is that the right shape???

 

[Izban]

getting closer i think you need to thin the body up a little bit in chibi the head should = the torso
