Projects / Animation / Rat Boy/Llygoden Fach Wen A non-commercial work in progress section. Based on a Preston Blair style character, this project is under development to further the skills of the studio and to assess new techniques and tools being offered in up and comming releases of Autodesk Maya, pixellogic Zbrush and Autodesk Toxik.
The character was designed by the thinkplay.tv's creative team and a bespoke 'squash-strech' rig was constructed by the Animators. The displacement maps and skin maps were painted in ZBrush and the final character shaded using sub-surface scattering/fur in MAYA\MentalRay and composited in Toxik
