Planned things
-Kamina

I ended up deciding not to download it. I'll wait a bit to see if someone improves it soon, since I'm pretty much out of free slots on Link.

But it looks great, the best genderswap posted on Brawlvault besides Female Marth (Shinobu).

Hmm female link needs girl hair(maybe just peaches style?) and bigger bust but other than that :3 lol I'm totally downloading that when it's finished~
Does it go over normal ink?

I already got people saying that her breasts are too big, and you demmand even bigger ones? =_=
And this is finished. I'm tired of editing her, so for now she's completly finished.
Last but not least, why the hell should it be over somebody else than Link? >_>

I'm just asking, not demanding lol
Hmm I guess I'll take a look then X3
What about a female Ike? XD I mean links already been done (maybe not as brawl hack but still...) but don't see too many female *insert other well known character here* XP

I think 'her' breasts look just as big as they can get before getting ridiculous.

Shouldn't be made bigger.

BTW, Edited my 1st post.

Mah true, I was thinking along the lines of comedic effect (considering how popular the genderswap is) rather than sex appeal, but yeah...guess if the tunic she has on now is almost too tight already I'd have to agree ^_^;; Still lol it would be an interesting touch (the hair not the breasts)

Eh. I won't continue working on this in a long time, and most people complaining don't even hack. So I think waiting is just pointless.
...really, the only person so far that has criticised this of whom I think that he actually might be able to improve this is Pik.


No, no more genderswaps. That was too much trouble for now.

I know, how about the character in your sig over toon link? @_@;;

Hmm I'd try it myself(making another genderswap char) but I only have blender and Donkybox 1.0 ALTHOUGH I just noticed something awesome, blender supports Collada~

He already has Vaati :P

That's who it is @_@;;
PS: Downloaded link chan cause it's better than the other female link I found :3 gonna give it a try(and 'serious' feedback lol) later. ^+^

I love Female link and Dual wielded Ganon. I love how u figured out about the armor/sword thing. Female Link is amazing! The vertexes are simply Awesome

Hey, is it okay if I edit the texture some for link-chan? I wasn't gonna do much, maybe try to make his outfit look more skirt/dress-ish and maybe try to fix the hair X_X I make no promises on quality as I'm kinda suckish at it.

Great job on that Link and Midna! I'll look forward to your upcoming works!

Lolololol Female link came out on 9/11

Hey Unglück, Is it okay if you send me the link model (the actual vertexes that u changed)? I was thinking of maybe making him  look more like a her, like vertex the clothes a little to make it more skirt ish. But meh, I'm not that good lol so you're probably better asking pic or lookitslink :3
Also, my game froze on stage five of classic mode?

Haha it's kinda like a birthday preasent to me ^+^ I always wanted a girl link XP an acurate one anyway.

so are going to do those code geass related hacks soon?

:>.>palm: Stfu and enjoy this awesomeness

*Sigh* yeah I  can't really enjoy the awesomeness of link-chan with the sheild in the way XD
Maybe I'll make a clear texture for the shield that he holds. That way the sheild works properly but you don't have to stare at it :3

That can be easily hexed out. :af: thank you Jack H.

We should ask Jack H or someone to do his hair into like princess zelda's but without the ponytails X3
PS: if the shield is hexed out, does that mean he still has no shield in-game? *tilts head sideways*

Si.. why XD

Because I know hexed out means "removed" XD I was just making sure about it not being in game(in functionality) just in case cause link without his shield would be kinda...yeah xD

Showing a preview picture of the current model I'm making for Amaterasu (and Wolf Link).


I haven't completly forgotten about those, but it will take some time before I release them... I'll probably release them between two of my more major projects >_>

cool

Don't forget that if you hex out any polygon, ais will be unable to create a dae file. So you should hold off on removing any polygons until after your vertex is complete.

Hm-hm. Then please tell me why exactly I had no problems with creating .dae files, and even got the model in question to work perfecty in-game, even though I did hex out parts before I started the vertexing.

D:

Then I guess it might just be something about ddvb2 lol.

Ahem, anyway...
A new preview of the model. Progress is pretty good, I only need to edit the arms, heads and remove Wolf's thumbs... though that last one will probably be hard as hell.
Even though, I might finish the model tomorrow.

Now, this is still in early stages, so I feel it's easier for you to follow some suggestions: You're thinking of Amaterasu too literally.


I understand why you would use Wolf, but are you using him solely because he's a real wolf? How about someone like Ivysaur? You could just size Amaterasu down to fit his bone structure, no issue. It's not like you chose Wolf for his moveset.

I agree, Ivysaur Is very easy to hack aswell, like he donst have very many bone weights so you can change him into pretty much anything. he also has like 5 polygons or somthing.

I think I've already made far too much progress with this one than just scratch this Wolf version. I have already thought about this in detail, the only thing that would cause problems are hands and boots.
In addition to that I think that turning that thing on Wolf's back into Amaterasu's reflector should be easier than turning Ivysaur's bulb into it.


The fact that Ivysaur is rather easy to hack might be true, but I for my part think that the fact that it belongs to Pokémon Trainer makes it just not notable enough. Wolf on the other hand is just himself, and can be just used as himself.
(Plus I think that there are not enough good hacks for Wolf :P )

So, in short: I want to finish this. If it doesn't turn out good enough, though, I will however have a look at Ivysaur for Amaterasu.

You should make his reflector into an issun looking thing xD or have an issun ish graphic on him lol

Cool. I'm looking forward to see how this one turns out.

Updated with some in-game previews of the model, and my decision that this is only a version one. Version two will be made some time after this, but not before I do some other things.

Some in-game previews of the current textures, and how I'll continue with this model now.

What's the orange thing in his back? And nice thinking for the All-white texture ;)

I REALLY hope you're kidding.

Updated thread with the current Amaterasu, and decision on what my next project is.

N released, Pokabu will follow this night.

whats a Pokabu?

 :srs: :>.>palm:


http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100611194553/pokemon/images/2/2a/Pokabu.png\
Gen. 5 Starter, get with the program dude.

Fix'd for yea.
Who's he gonna be on?

Cool the pig pokemon, can't wait.

Pokabu released... no idea what I'll do for my next project, though.

Why not try and make Genosect? Or the grass starter would be cool.

Well if you include My Reshiram, Your N and Pokabu..
we only need a 5th Gen Pokemon vertex over Squirtle and thats a full 5th Gen Trainer.
Infact if you used StarWaffle's Piplup as a base you could pull off Mijimaru within seconds.

First previews of Eggman.
And no, not Robotnik. Robotnik is the fat old man shouting "Pingas" all the time.

Sweet, Nice work =D

Needs a little fixing up I'm sure your aware of.. but awesome =3

Wow. A little over a minute and I already got the first response? Not bad.

ya better improve him,
he is not bad but you can still make it better !

ohhohohoh egman using marios moves against sonic xD 

Eggman released.

needz moar work  :srs:

It looks fine, it's just the head. We can't do anything about it yet.

Suuuure. Then why don't you tell me what needs work? Aside from the head, I mean?

A Sonic hack from Cal?
Who the hell are you, and what did you do to Calamitas?

Preview of my current thing.

So the super secret project has been revealed o.O
Honestly I wouldn't have guessed what it would've been, but it looks badass so far.  You should think maybe about making him giant?

I like the hack so far Cal!

Hey I don't know if you take requests but it (should be) is an easy one. Do you think you could do Zelda in her hooded outfit from Twilight Princess?

(http://reviews.cnet.com/i/ss/zelda/slide10_440.jpg)

Loving Super Dimentio!  Methink's I may make a PSA so that he is bigger XD

Methinks you should make a Boss PSA...-and replace one of the bosses with him.

Some previews of my next thing, Miroku.

you're gonna do okami waka <3 awesome lol

Updated with Sango, Miroku, and information on my next hack... Sephiroth?

Previews of Sephiroth!

Lmao, epic Sephiroth Calamitas! I sure as heck wasn't expecting that! XD

I want eet!

LOL dedede shouldnt eat genova cells XD

What's next cloud strife on Kirby?

Hey Callmeta, can I use your Sango vertex/texture as a base for a character I'm going to port over to sheik and make into an original character?

Close, but not quite. You'll all see it later today.

I'm guessing, meta knight then?

OMG!!!!!
LOL at that sephiroth!!!!!!
awesome dude

He already said (on another thread) it's MetaCloud.

Sephiroth and Cloudby released!


Yes, yes I did.

Great work as always Cal!  I'd quite like to see Goron and Excalibur Sonic done.  Gorons are so cool and deserve more love T-T

Dederoth and Cloud Knight
'nuff said. I'll grab these later.

Calmittas answer my question please >_>

Can I use Sango as a base for a sheik hack I'm going to make? Note I will be porting the model over to Sheik so I can finish my Neoxis character....

Get the name right plz :3
I spend a whole five/ten minutes coming up with it, so please remember it. :3


You do realize that you normally ask people stuff like this via PM, and not by posting in their threads?
And to answer your question: No, I'd prefer to keep this model for Sango only.

Nice Dederoth looks sexy. :3
.......
Excalibur Sonic?
Well Then.

Good Luck. >:D

Clouby? Because he's supposed to look like Kirby?
lol I fail

Updated with Melvin!

Will he give me a death hug if I download him?

Actually decided to revive this thing... with some previews of Waka.
And a poll.


Yes. Yes, he will.

Actually, I dowloaded him a while ago and I'm still fi....*starts choking*Urgh.....Melvin.......*dies*

waka sama omg <3
lol
my fave char ever :D

Gots a new preview of Waka... should be done by tomorrow.
Hopefully...

Aside from that...
This is what you get when I'm bored.
(http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/8021/al1101160029binout.jpg)

Oh, and...


Please keep your gratuitous japanese out of my thread, k? I have no need for something like that.

Waka released.

And number three! That makes three posts in a row that are not against the rules...
Does somebody know how high the forum record is?



....uh, err... yeah. The previews. Wind Waker Ganondorf and Beast Ganon.

Wow! You realy make some cool stuff! I really like that: Melvin / Yami Marik. keep making cool stuff!


EBT

beast ganon scares me, but windwaker ganon is looking nice.

beast ganon looks awesome!!!!
that could be his "triforce transformation"
xD

 :srs:


Beast Ganon is total WIN.

Real face Ganon, good job Calamitas.

Glad to hear that Beast Ganon is getting such a positive reception.
I should however point one thing out... I'm not quite sure when I'll be done with him, seeing as I'll have to come up with ideas on how to design his armor myself.

cant u first release ganon with his standard armor, and later create a new one?
cuz its just plain awesomesauce!!!!!

New preview of Beast Ganon, now a lot more texturized.

I would also like to announce that once he's done, he'll be released with about two or three alternate textures.


Sorry, but no. I don't really like minimalistic edits like that >_>

The preview of Ganon Wind Waker are cutty.

Beast Ganon are awesome.

I have seen so much amazing stuff today and these 2 Ganon hacks are no exception!
 
They're coming along splendidly!

that Beast is a Beast  :srs:

Alright... several preview snapshots showcasing the texture this time.
I'd say that I'm about done with the texture (except for some details, like making use of the Gold_mask texture), but I'm currently open for suggestions on what to change about the texture, or on what to add in to it.

Cal, that is looking *eff*ing good, seriously, I'm using that when you release it.

^This, i couldn't have said it better myself. This Ganon will be in my ISO for a long time :af2:

Minor update, with a preview of a not-blue version.

Are you going to make his trident as well?
I think then it'd be perfect.
Looks great so far without it though.

That Beast Ganon is awesome.  I'm working on a Lttp Pig Ganon on DDD. I think I'll use recolored textured from Ganondorf as well. It should give it a bit more quality than I could do on my own. Good luck with the rest of it.

looks pretty awesome, how about making his leg texture skin?
i mean the thing with the squares that used to be red and u made blue ^^

Sorry, but now the main textures are done. Only thing left for me to do is do some recolors that will be included in the download.

Ah, by the way...
Release is on Thursday.

but today its monday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

could u at least plz plz plz plz plz post sum def previews?

Yes, Beast Ganon should be my present of my Birthday :p

Wait, that is on Thursday? xD

For those who have gone stir crazy over the lore (because the timeline and canonicity of any one games dialogue) or are just too young:

Ganon was already a beast. His pig-like form is the form of the Moblins that follow him. He created a drow-warrior form in OoT, just as he created a Shadow Link in ZELDA II and Aganon (however it is spelled, from the SNES game.) Ahganim or whatever was considered a separate sorcerer but when I was a child I assumed HE was just the 'Link's Awakening's Ganon.'
--Up to that point every game had a diff spelling:
-Ganon
-Gannon
It was revealed that like Ganon's Phantom Form (in later games), Aganhim was only there to do Ganon's bidding while he was away.

ONE TIME Ganon came back as a Drow. Since OoT was SO popular (deservingly so) NOW Ganondorf has become the character and Ganon has become "Beast Form Ganondorf."

Dorf was added because he's desert drow now. He's still just Ganon. This wouldn't have happened if Nintendo had stopped using the Dorf motif repeatedly, or at least gave Ganon a new Ganon(     )  every sequel.


THE POINT!?
I wanted Ganon in Smash Bros 1 before I ever wanted Ganondorf.
Now that you are doing your Beast Form Ganondorf I CAN FINALLY HAVE GANON!!! (Beast Form Ganon would technically be the Final Smash, not so much the man)

BUT THANK YOU    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Well, for being far, I think they more or less had to introduce Ganondorf, otherwise Ganon would've been way to similar to Bowser, as both were just animal-themed beasts that kidnapped princesses to take over their kingdoms.
And a fun little fact: The word "dorf" is actually german for "village".

Anyway... the release for Beast Ganon is now on Friday, since I most likely won't be able to make it tomorrow due to some personal problems.

you never made a Melee hack  :srs:

why are you puttin' it in your poll ?

Now, today lol

But if it's update tomorrow, i will play with him for my Birthday :p
lol

That's... not even remotely how it works.

about ganondorf i dont remember where, nor do i remember if it was oficial or fanfic, but it said that before OoT, ganon (a beast) literally f*ck*d a gerudo (of course the text didnt say that, but we all know how we get children, and that dorf, meant "son of"...

i rly dont remember where i read it, but it sounds rly awesome ^^

...

Ganon and Ganondorf are the same person. Always have been, always will be. Ganon is not some overarching demon. That was definitely not official.

not always have been dude, at least i believe so, wasnt altp always pig form?

i just dont understand why one is ganon and another ganonDORF...

Welllll Ganon was the first name he was referred to as. He wasn't called Ganondorf until Ocarina of Time. Plus when his monster form comes out to play it's called Ganon.
Gannon was a misspelling present only in the instruction booklets of a few of the games.
The two names refer to his two forms: Ganondorf, the human form, and Ganon, his true form (never officially called his true form, but I interpret it that way because Ganon came first in the games).

so my story makes sense in a way, after all ganon is the beast form, and in Oot, he needed the triforce and being rly pissed to transform... xD

Released.

YESZ! :falcon:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iV2kyTQ3Bl8
^Your vertexture with an idiotically overpowered PSA XD

Don't mess Ganon...

lol that just gave me an idea for wolf xP

Updated my to-do list, and added the things that I want to do rather soon to the higher parts of the OP.

Oh yeah, and cookies to the person who recognizes the Okami character like that.

Oh I know who that is! I fogot his name but he's the kid you do the turnip-digging mini game isn't it?

Also, I would prefer you do Issun rather than shadow next >_> there are WAY too many shasdows already lol

But it's his interpretation. Remember his Sephiroth and Cloud? :P

Mushi? No. I wouldn't do such an unimportant character.

And this Shadow will be special. He'll be the most accurate one in existance, since he'll be in the same style as my Cloud and Sephiroth...

You should do an interpretation of Sonic as well :P

¬¬

i just read ur first to-come thing...
and i was seriously like ¬¬

YES Another Kakashi vertex :D
HMMM do you think you could do someone besides sauske? He and naruto have way too much hack love already >_> Maybe....Kiba?

What was the next Calamitas?

can sumone explain me why shado is on that list?

Because shadow is so original it's not even funny :af2:

It's gonna be his interpretation. Remember his Cloud and Sephiroth?

Because BrawlVault need another Shadow for explose.

OK, than its cool

Ahaha, you apparently don't know me at all.
I hate Naruto.
And considering of what kind my Shadow is going to be, and of what kind my Cloud and Sephiroth were, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out what these are going to be like.

this shadow?

Ba-dum tiss

^
This.

whats ba-dum tiss???

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yl3UMO-TkE

oh ok, xD

WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?!

...New poll. Minor vertex hack for Captain Falcon.
Started watching Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.

Alright... simply interpreting the "WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?!" votes as "Yes" rather than "No", I released this. Have fun.

Kamina Shades Falcon...

...


...hyes.

Also any progress on WW Ganon?

Or on Issu-I mean, that other okami character?

Finally get to bump this...
After being too lazy for a while, I got back to work for a little, and can now throw out some more previews... for Issun and Wind Waker Ganondorf.
Though, I need to know whether WW Ganondorf's robes look ok like that, since actually fixing the way they currently look would be just an annoying process.

As for the poll, this one isn't to decide whether I'll make these things, but rather when I'll make them, since I want to do all of them one day.

I'm with adult TL or Luffy, even though IDK who you're doin' him over.

just a suggestion, i think blaze would be better on lucario.

But Lucario doesn't have fire :I

Cal, what about your version of Shadow, like how you have a version of Sephiroth and Cloud?

Still going to make him... this current poll is just to determine in which order I'll be doing things after I finish him.
Though, before I start with Shadow, I'll first finish Issun, Wind Waker Ganondorf and some others.

I'd love to see Tingle.
For some reason, the Ness one doesn't cut it for me :srs:

zelda only has 1 or 2 fire attacks... and blaze's fighting style isnt too "princessy". i see her fighting more like lucario, even tho he has aura attacks

New preview for Issun... well, at least now I'm almost done!
I'll probably release him some time next week, along with an updated version of Waka, and human Amaterasu.


Uh, sorry, but no. I won't take any suggestions about this. It's going to be on Zelda when I actually make this, and that's final.
Listening to the requests and ideas of Sonic fans is only counter-productive.

Issun and Ammy released.
And we are sorry to interrupt this to-do list for... faNtasticness.

Human Amaterasu is awesome.

I voted for Luffy.  I woulda voted for Blaze, but I don't think she should be over Zelda unless you do a one slot size mod or something.

I voted Blaze i hope it wins

Same lol

Same here *pervy snicker*
XP kidding...unless it was like a 21 year old version of her XP

Poll is locked now, since I don't think that there won't be major changes to it.
I should however note that it'll take some before I start with any of the characters who are on the poll, since I'm currently rather lazy about hacking stuff in general... and I just got Pokémon Black.

Added a preview for the Marth version of N that I'm working on.

Lovin' your avatar.
Pokemon + TWEWY=epic win :af:

Your doing N? Awesomesauce. Also...

•Kakashi, Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura

:af:

New preview.
Model is done, only need to finish textures.
Once I'm through with that, I'll try to finish Power's Snivy, and then release them together.

Got some in-game previews of N, as well as something new: Feminine Sheik. For details on her, check the OP.
Only thing that's left to do on N are some texture fixes, so the release for him will probably be some time next week.

Oh, and for any complaints about Sheik's breast size, I'll just say this:
It's called "fanservice". Deal with it.

I'm liking that new Sheik, indeed!

What's N's sword going to be?

Nothing.

Aww :(
Can you make a version of him using marth's sword? Sorry If im being a bother :3

N released, and still no sword :af:

Anyway, next up is Shadow.
And my Shadow is gonna be the best Shadow hack EVAR!! He'll be like super chibi kawaii desu shigeru miyamoto super special awesome perfectly perfectioned complete Shadow v0.5, and he'll be the best Shadow EVAR, because I will also port him over Donkey Kong and that will make him like all awesomesaucerific!

LIEZ!!

Da bestest and most perfect Shadow waz already made!!

http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=15463

I still wanna see Cal's Shadow :af:

It's funny how even that texture over Sonic of Shadoe have that amount of DL's. <_<

"Shadow" released. He even comes with two recolors! Isn't that amazing? It's amazing!

Aaanyway. Next I'll start with the poll options... beginning with Luffy.

I didn't think you'd pull it off.  But this even beats Shadow the Wolf and the aforementioned Shadow.....

Nah I'm just kiddin ;)  This is badass

I have a suggestion for adult toon link.
Wait til skyward sword comes out.
Then rip the textures straight from the game :)

...
No.

You summarised one of my usual lectures into a single word right there XD

You seem to be having a good day.

A good day? Yeah, probably.
Though, it'd be perfect if I'd convince a certain somebody to play Okami... but even so, it's already good enough.

Congratulations, you officially made me lol in real life. :af:

lol at shadowkong
I still think King Sepheroth is better lol

Any chance you could do a version of Kakashi? XD

How about a version of Sonic? :af:

I LOVE your Shadow Kong Calamitas! You never cease to amaze me. XD

You are kidding right, how can someone reject playing okami?, is that even possible? :0

Shadow Kong made me lol.  :P

I can't wait to see your Kakashi.  :D

^
If he did Kakashi the world would just die from the awesomeness XD

Lol

Shadow was terrible epic! And made me lol

Good job Calamitas.

Lol, no kidding. I was literally laughing when I saw it.

In the first see, i've thiking it's a another Shadow hack.

And when i see it's on DK.. I lol'd.

For me, it's awesome to do this. xD

it's shadowkong's true form... shadow morphed into an ape after being ported over donkey kong...

lol epic Shadow-DK

Actually it's the result of shadow and DK doing the fusion dance from DBZ XD

Added a, like, early preview of Luffy.
Don't expect him, like, anytime soon, though, dudes.

You really like turning Marth's tiara into hats don't you?  You did it with N before, and now you're doing it with Luffy XD

Dude, like, Luffy is, like, lookin' good so far.
Like, keep it up, duuuuude.

That, like, good work so far. I, like, will download it when it's, like, finished.

nice Luffy, a very original vertex  too :af2:

Luffy's lookin good bro :)
might make a psa for him :D
now that I can animate somewhat decently :l

though I have yet to make a completely custom animations yet. (With the exception of my kakashi's Neutral B/Side B start animations )

Luffy look amazing. Good job Calamitas.

Alright, made, like, some more progress on Luffy-sama-chaaan.

And since I'm now, like, starting with the face, I'll, like, really need opinions, since that one's gonna be, like, pain to edit.

big eyes and big mouth, since he is an anime character, u could try to make his mouth flat, and just texture it?
just suggesting ^^

do you liek to have a ripped model ?
i haz Battle Stadium D.O.N running on Dolphin.

Like, sure, why not.

Alright... I, like, worked a bit on the textures for, like, his clothes and eyes, as well as, like, his hair vertices now.
Though, the texture part can't, like, really be seen in 3DS Max... but whatever, dudes.

Alright, dudes... I, like, worked again some more on Luffy's face, and I think I've, like, reached a part where I can't really get it more, like, accurate.
But since I'm, like, not really sure about this, I, like, made a poll to let you decide. So, like, tell me. Keep it like that or work some more?

MEAAAATTTTTTT GIVE ME SOME MEATTTTT!!!~~
Translation: Luffy ish looking epic
XD

Alright guys, last attempt.
As "suggested", I've done some more work on Luffy's face, and just as predicted, even with a reference, I didn't get much further. I made a slightly new poll to get some opinions.
But please let me warn you: When all of you vote for me having to do more work on this without giving any opinions or ideas on what to change in the form of a reply here... well, then I can only say screw you, and release him like that.

You have been, like, warned, dudes.

That preveiw of Luffy on the opening, scares me..... no offense of course....

Still needs a little work in my opinion.
It doesn't need alot done, but I'd make the face wider and shorter...

Use his Manganime appearance for reference:
(http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRUm9zYDD3-2GxaLI686MZhF7pVrEtiul1h1LiIdHUuvuDqCDvH&t=1)
(the reference you have may be from an actual One Piece game, but it looks awful :-\)

Face could be more recognizable by rounding the mouth/jaw area a bit more instead of it being so long.
And kill the length of his nose. and you're good.

It currently looks more:
 \          /
  \        /
    \ _ /

When it should look more:
 |              |
  \            /
   \______/
    

Thats about as good as I can draw with... symbols in a text box, but you get the idea.

So far, it seems you've only (noticeably) edited the eyes and the mouth.

Like spirit said, the jaw should be different. You should also edit the nose. It kind of just looks like Marth with big eyes atm.

+1 Need work.

Dudes, how are you so hung up on facial details when you won't be that close camerawise to give a damn in-game? (other than screenshots)

I say it's worth releasing now *sideglance* you could always save those face fixes for a V2 someday if people insist on it -_-;

Face= a person's visual identity


pretty damn important.

I think the nose is a bit off, to be honest.

Now that's, like, much better, dudes.
Now I, like, at least have an idea on what to change.
...Though, I won't get to work on this until Wednesday... but whatever.

only differences I see are the nose and chin that need work. (Again I still think these things could be for like a V2 or something :P )
Everything else looks pretty damned perfect XD

Or as good as you can get it for a vertex O_o

The face also needs to be a bit more rounded.

It still needs some work, but its off to a great start.  ;)

I am not knocking your work or anything like that.
I'll never know how difficult creating a vertex is in general, but since I love mah OnePiece, I would love for you to continue working on it just a tiny bit more  ;D

Alright dudes, I, like, tried making the face a bit shorter now...
I think it now does look, like, quite a bit like him, but since this is, like, quite a major hack for me...
Once again, it's, like, poll time.

And for reference, this is what it, like, looked like before.

I think the hat should be a bit lower on the head.

Ah, by the way.
When nobody, like, gives any good points on what do change about the face, then I'll just keep it like that, and, like, edit the other three faces accordingly.
Just saying.

The face is getting a closer, as I said already I don't like the mouth but I'm not sure if flattening the lips would work. Something about the face still looks like Marth, though. I just can't put my finger on it.

Though something else I noticed, the strawhat seems a bit too big compared to the head. I'd make it a tad smaller and lower it a little. As for the scar, I think Aafyre managed to make scars from Marth's hair. Maybe you could add the scar that way?

Personally i think it's his eye-brows, could be wrong though.

a little rounder, flatten the lips and edit the hair,and i think ull be done ^^

Like, getting rid of the lips doesn't really work, I already, like, asked Link about it. Making the face, like, even rounder really isn't that possible either without it looking stupid...
I guess I'll just have to, like, keep it like that >_>


Already started thinking, like, the same thing about the hat... I'll try shrinking it a bit once the faces are done.
But I'm, like, not really sure about whether the hair could be used... I mean, wouldn't it be, like animated?

You should be safe with either polygons 17 or 18 to do that. Those are the ones I used for Edward's antennae and his ponytail respectively.

Sooo...
I, like, started exporting Luffy. Aside from, like, some minor fixes, he's pretty much done, so he'll, like, most likely be released on Sunday.

Oh, and by the way.
The final release will, like, include an alternate with a sword - specifically the one he used as Nightmare Luffy at the end of the Thriller Bark arc.

Release.

What's, like, next? I don't know... yet.

Hmm, I know someone you could do, though you may not have heard of him if you're not a flash series junkie ^+^

Goku vs. Luffy in SSBB :D (finnaly)
awesome work

And you think I take requests because...?

I wasn't going to make it a request :notimp:
I was just saying cause you were wondering what you could do next...
seriously, why does having a 'suggestion' automatically  make something a request? *facepalm*

Luffy joins the brawl  :af2:
good job!

have you always spoken like that?  it is very annoying to read >.>


anyways, nice hack, it could like, use a lot o work, however i can see the effort you put in it, so like, kudos.

i damn wanted to make a PSa for luffy but i am busy with Goku

U do the animations and i do the psa...
Most of Luffy's moves are physical combat anyway XD

if somebody does it, ill try to make dhalsim over marth... xDDDD

Mhm, so, like, anyway... >_>

Decided to work on Vaati next.
And started to consider Ghirahim.

Sounds like a good idea.

*Kicks topic, like, in the balls*
Well you ungrateful bastards, got, like, a preview for Fawful.


Oh yeah, and I decided that I'll never again do characters that have existing and available 3D models for them.

is that ness??? or DDD?? i thaught of DDD because of him having no visible legs in that pic, but then i thought, why would he be DDD??? so he must be ness, also, tha hair thingy on his head looks like ness' hair thingy from in front of his face ^^

Both, like, wrong.
Have some in-game pics. Maybe those'll, like, help you figure out who he is on.

(http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/4427/al11070918132binout.jpg)

When that doesn't, like, help you... the next one definately will.


Oh yeah, and as the title, like, says, I'll release him later today.

Aaand he's, like, released.

heeeey tiz really good :0

tiz awesome

I am so going to download that hack

That Fawful right there only makes wish that I still had the motivation to keep working on Bowletta...

But enough about that, I have chortles... and fury after seeing this awesome Fawful hack!

Started, like, revamping something else.
First preview of it in the OP.

Looking goood so far

Got some more previews of King Bradley... and another hack based on his model.

Release is on Friday.

http://kc-mm.com/calamitas/the-ultimate-eye/07-15-2011/

Looking forward to Ghirahim :D

Hope he has epic tongue action.

He's, like, gonna be on Sheik, so sadly no tongue.

Ah, that's a pretty nice hack Cal, I just have one question though... Is he Wifi safe?

I'm just wondering if he has bone edits.

No bone edits. He's Wifi save.

First Ghirahim preview is up... Yeah, like people will care about that.
Also, poll about... another character. Let's bet that this poll will get all the attention, if any?

Ghirahim's looking smexy so far.  Main thing I'd say is the hair, but that's pretty obvious.  Nice work on the cape and the arms.  What did you make the cape from?

Cape is made from the scarf, which is why I've kept it, like, as long as it is right now. I think it's actually, like, longer, but I think animations would mess up more if I brought it to its actual length.
And... like, what exactly do you mean about the hair? >_>

Well look at his hair here:


Then look at your preview.  The hair sweeps more over his face and there's more of a parting.  It's hard to describe, so just look

Great preview so far.
I'm not sure who to vote for on the poll though...

Coincidentally, I happen to be working on a Sheik psa right now....hmm....

Bah! Screw it, I'm sure my psa will go good with Ghirahim, so long as I can get the sword working for her specials. (The OC I'm doing has feminine sheik as a  base.)

The hair parting needs to be brought more to the left in the preview (Sheik's right side), and lengthened and brought to more of a point.

And the cape in the back should be able to stretch to its actual length without animation problems (just occasional clipping). In the front though there'll be lots of clipping unless you pull the end of it forward more. Think about how Sheik stands (slightly hunched wait stance) and fix it accordingly.

Test the vertex with the character's motion file as you work so you know the true limitations of things before you assume something's changed too much.


Also, voted for Ness/Lucas for the Lucas half of it. He has a lot of hair to play with.

why mario or Luigi as blaze i know mario got a fire movesets(my Fire moveset or the other one) but still the model will be hard to be Blaze

^ This.  LiL described perfectly what I was trying to say about the hair.

Yeah, this thing is still alive.

Do I see another Vaati revamp?

Title. Preview in OP.
But at least I got something that's rather close to what I want. Now I can just edit that, and hope that it exports better due to it having fewer edits.


Yeah, only this time it's complete from scratch, and should be Wifi safe.

Bro Toon Link's hair will be a beeeeeyetch to export no matter what you do. It's just a fact of life. It will take up to twenty or so patches before it looks good. It all requires patience.

^ This :vyse:

Cal', you seen the Toon Link's Har was really hard too export.

Yeah, kthx and all, but I already know that. I just got an acceptable result after, like, 28 patches, so there's no need to tell me this. >_>

Some more editing...
I'd say the Vaati model is about done. Preview is in OP. Also, poll concerning said OP.

vaati was in the minish cap right

Yes.
He was the main enemy in Minish Cap and Four Swords Adventure.

I'm really impressed with the Vaati you have Cal. Very nice job.

I'm loving how he's coming out. Can't wait for his release, Calamitas.

*waits to see it when it's finished*

Getting, like, closer... still need to remove sheath and shield, think of a new shape for the sword, texture the rest of the golden thing at his hat, texture a scar over where his right eye should be, and work on the eyes.

Oh, and it seems like I, like, need to erase three people. >=C

At the moment, he looks adorable.   Moreso than Toon Link and even Toon Zelda.  But he shouldn't.....

Most of that problem lies with the eyes, which obviously you haven't edited yet but some of the problem also lies in that smirk on his face.  Vaati should look somewhat menacing and intimidating.  I think a subtle frown would work better for his default expression (one like in this picture):


As far as additional model edits go, his pants should be puffier but apart from that I can't really give much verdict because of the stupid shield in the way covering up a lot of his body @.@

Anyways, I'm sure the final product will look great when it's done.

Eyes have already been taken care of. I decided to simply-reuse the one from my previous one, since doing that saves me a lot of trouble.

Also, shield and sheath removed, sword reformed and retextured.


Concerning the pants... I don't think I can make them puffer, because doing that also makes Toon Link's tunic wider, and that'd only look stupid.

Anyway... only thing left to do now is puting a scar in place of the right eye and finishing the texture for that gem-stuff on his hat.

it is easily possible to edit his pants, cuz his skirt thingy should be wider as well...

also, the hair... the front part looks good, but the bangs should be longer, and his hair on the back should be longer too, also, the hat, the golden part should be lower, just above his face...

im only being nitpiky since this will be ur third attempt ^^

Look at the second image I posted. It already does look kinda stupid there. If I were to make them as wide as they're supposed to be, it would look just plain dumb.

And I still need to work on the golden thingy, so I guess I can as well lower it...

...If I remember correctly I did already far more attempts than just three... I stopped counting some time ago.

I'm really looking forward to this one Cal, I just hope you can get those marks under his eyes this time.

Well, I don't think Toon Link's face is mirrored, so I doubt he'll have a problem.

r)
Anyway, Vaati looks great, to bad he's over Toonlink(though who would be a better choice) because toonlink for me is already full. Oh well, this guy is definetly going to replace somedody, but who...

So yeah, title says it.
Pretty much done with Vaati, most likely gonna release him tomorrow.
Pictures are in OP.
Third picture is only to show off the scarred eye I put in place of his actual right eye. Can't do anything about the hair moving like it does in that picture without disabling bones, which I don't really plan on doing since it's only a minor issue, and this entire thing supposed to be Wifi safe.

"I AM PUNCHING YOUR SALAD! >=(" has the least votes?

No one here has watched asdfmovie >.>

Man... I love how Vaati is turning out.

And I like the creative liberties taken to get rid of the "derpy eyes" glitch he had, the scar is rather fitting to be honest.

All and all, this is SO going in my game when it's done Cal.

(http://kc-mm.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/RV.png) (http://kc-mm.com/calamitas/so-yeah-this-guy-again/08-23-2011/)

Released. =3

And I guess I'll go back to texturing Ghirahim now...
...Oh, and I'm considering to make Felix from Golden Sun (/The Lost Age).

Felix would be awesome to have! We need more Golden Sun hacks!

Theres really Beyond's Isaac, and Saturos by Weyard. Unless there is more?
But really, the series needs more love.

When I read Felix, I was thinking you were talking about Felix the Cat D:

Hopefully you decide into making him (Golden Sun's)

Ah, nice to see Vaati released. :)

Now then... Good luck on Ghirahim, that should be interesting.
Poor Link... Now he'll have a perverted stalker in Brawl, one who doesn't know the meaning of personal space. XD

I've heard rumors that someone is making a stage.

I heard that someone was very happy about it to.

^Title says it.
Preview of Ghirahim is in the OP, and as it says there, the texture is mostly WIP. Would like to have some opinions for those... =3

Oh, and by now I've decided that I really am going to make Felix from Golden Sun...
And I decided to remake my old Lust hack, since I've got several ideas on how to improve it by now.

...And it's now decided that I'll change my OP... though I don't know how yet. But I'll come up with something... somehooooooow...


And I heard other rumors that say that somebody else is going to texture it, and that there'll be different versions of it.

Well then, since I got such an overwhelming amount of suggestions for fixes for Ghirahim, I was totally able to make him much better now.

Anyway, title says it once again. In-game preview in OP. See for yourself.

So far so good :D

My biggest issue right now is the head. It doesnt look like you did much to it model wise. Ghirahims hair comes from the top and parts from the center down over his face. Looks like all you did was remove a bang and stretch the other one. Also if I remember correctly there should be something you could use for the earrings. Also the eyes need to be larger or the purple portion around it needs to be, I can't remember how his eyes are atm.

The scarf looks nice. The rest of the texture still looks rather flat, but I know it's still a w.i.p.

(http://zeldawiki.org/images/9/9c/S11.jpg)

There ya go, the face.
...Looking at myself, I really do have a lot more work left than I thought at first... but at least now I have some ideas on what to do. Thanks for that.
Well, anyway.

Concerning the textures, I didn't plan to add that much more in to them, considering the general art style of the game.

No offense but Girahim is still way too obviously Sheik. Body needs to be thinner all over, the head wrappings could afford to be moved so it looks like a real hairline, etc.

^Title, picture in OP, kthx.



Yes Brohan, I noticed.
And in all honesty, Ghirahim really isn't thin or skinny - I mean, just look at this (http://zeldawiki.org/images/5/56/Ghiramin_Battle.png).

I like it so far, needs a bit more fine tuning the hair i think but aside that.. It's good :D

3DS Max ignores transparency on the hair textures, and just displays it in Ike's default hair color - so right now, I don't really have an idea how it will actually look after exporting.
But I'm quite confident that it should come out right...

Edit:
Made a poll concerning the sword choice for Felix.

Give him a LightSaber.....but i dont think you well so i choose Pikachu Excaliber ;D

The Sword in this picture! (http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/2/29679/896793-felix_super.jpg)
It seem's like his iconic sword.

Mh, seems like I'm not the only one who thinks that Excalibur has a better design than Sol Blade, despite the latter being more useful...



Eh, I was actually not considering that one... it seems a bit boring in terms of design to me.

Eh, I was actually not considering that one... it seems a bit boring in terms of design to me.
[/quote]
Okay then...

I'll perhaps make if the last option wins.
Considering how the votes currently are, the chances for that aren't too bad.

^ That's true.

Alright, since I don't really think that much is going to change about how the votes are spread, I'll just lock voting.
I guess I'll simply use Excalibur as Felix' "default" weapon then, and have the others as alternatives.

That's fine.

EDIT: Btw Cal, Do you have a recycle bin for your incomplete/unfinished hacks?

Nope.
Either I finish something, or nobody does.

That sucks. I noticed the Zelos vertex awhile ago and I was hoping that it didn't die... It was extremely well done too...
Who was he on anyways?

Eh...? I never even tried making Zelos. Are you sure that you aren't mixing up some things here? o.o'

That would be Micaiah you are thinking of good sir.
anyway, I hope the hair goes okay for you cal, as Ike's hair is a [censored] to edit <.<
it's looking good so far though.

THAT'S WHO IT WAS! I get confused with you and Micaiah...
My Bad Calamitas...

Weird because I kinda thought that it wasn't you, but at the same time, i did...

Eh, it's alright, I don't mind.

Anyway, I'd say I'm pretty much done with most of the model edits... I think I'll try exporting it later, too see how it looks in-game, and then start fixing up all mistakes that I find.
Second preview pic is in OP, as always.

Do you plan on texturing the arms/gloves? The seem to not have been done...

Other than that, I can't wait!

His textures are barely done... for the most part, they're really just Ike's. The only part of his textures that are done is his cape and scarf. Everything else will still be edited.

Well then, first exporting bunch is done. Results and opinions in OP.

He should look great after you make his hair longer. Keep it up.

The hair is on the right track. It needs to be longer and it should look smooth. If you can do that, then he'd be cool.

I heard Ike hair is annoying to vertex... I wonder how will it come out.

You already know about the hair, so not much to say there.

At the moment, he still looks too much like Ike to me. Sleeves need to be shorter and turned up at an angle. Tunic should be made slightly baggier and pants need to be bagged up as well.

Have you done anything to the face yet? Since I feel that's the most important thing besides the hair. Lookin at pics of him, Felix has a more pronounced forehead not huge but larger than Ikes and his eyes are more angular.

Just my three cents.

Wow BY... You really are Beyond me, you said pretty much what I would have said. ._.

Edited some more, got some new pictures.

Bleh... hair... I want to be finally done with it...

K. I think you should model the hair more, whether you keep the transparency or not is your call though. Whatever's easier for you.

With that said, here's my opinion. While you did make his pants "wider," they aren't baggier. Looking at a pic of Felix his pants hang over the tops of his boots. I would also take the 2 tassels that hang off the sides of Ikes boots and move them to the front.

Here's a pic of what I feel should be done:

Btw, why did you not use Ike's headband straps for Felix's ponytail? You could've used them both, and that they'd be affected by gravity as well. Just pointing that out there.

Ah, now this should actually help out...
And I guess I'm really just gonna remove the hair's transparency for the most part. Should make things easier.



Uh... I already did that? Just look at the fourth image, you can see it there quite clearly.

Oh... It doesn't look like it...

Well, it's obvious that you can't tell from one pic alone, but it really does animate. Only reason it's standing up in that pic is because he's in the middle of his turning animiation.

A little advice for the hair transparency based on my experience with Zelda's and Ike's hair:

Use the polygonal lasso tool, or a similar tool to take away tiny snippets from the edges of the hair texture, with Ike's hair as stretched as it is, taking away too much will result in ALOT of the hair being taken away, so try to make them almost infinitesimally thin and infinitesimally short or it will end up being a headache.

If the small changes don't end up doing much take a little more away, then keep going until it's perfect.

>_>

In comparison to

(http://goldensunwiki.net/images/4/4f/ExcaliburDDModel.png)



...What?

Model for the sword is perfect.  The inside blue I think needs to be darker though.

(http://i.imgur.com/QMK9q.png)

(http://goldensunwiki.net/images/4/4f/ExcaliburDDModel.png)

You were sayin'? =P
(And yeah, I also made a bit broader since the last preview, since I was told that was still off.)

Anyway. As I said, Excalibur will be the main weapon, and I'll create alternate versions for the Gaia Blade, Sol Blade, Tisiphone Edge, the sword from the official artwork, and... an easter egg sword.

An Easter egg sword?

Only one comes to mind, that fabled blade of wheat...

The sword looks really beautiful.

The "wings" (?) should be a little larger, though.
At least from what I see.

 Sword looks good but from the pic it looks like it gets slightly wider as it goes down toward the hilt. Also if you look closely there is a subtle white border around that yellow center. Also this is just something I would do to make it more brawl-ish, instead of it being solid yellow in the center, I would make it a nice light gold.

Just my 4 cents.

New previews... and I'd say I'm getting close to being done.


Only thing I really did about those points was the first thing, since I don't quite know what you actually mean ._.

Got some final previews...
Release should be in the next couple of days.

You double posted -.- Kidding

Felix looks great!

Personally, I still think the hair needs more work...

Other than that, It looks great!

I find that the hair strands looks kinda flat... I can't really describe it... but yeah, the hair, to me, has issues.

Yes. Yes, I did. :vyse:
And thanks. :vyse:


Well sorry, but this is pretty much the closest thing I can get out of Ike's hair.

What reference pic are you using?

Hm... Maybe you should make a new set of irises for Felix? This would make him look less like Ike... Perhaps you could look at Issac's assist trophy for reference? Since well... They are from the same series.

Also, if at all possible, make the bottom of his hair jagged, I'm not 100% sure if that's impossible with the model as it is now, or not... So... Yeah... I'd say focus on the eye texture, and other bits.

This. (http://goldensunwiki.net/images/4/44/GSFelix.png)

There really isn't much other official art that would be useful for reference.

Well... there are these:
(http://images.wikia.com/goldensun/images/a/a2/FelixLostAge.jpg)
(http://images.wikia.com/goldensun/images/b/bf/FelixSneaking.jpg)
(http://images.wikia.com/goldensun/images/4/41/FelixCloseup.jpg)
(http://images.wikia.com/goldensun/images/c/cc/FelixManga.jpg)

These should provide some usefulness.

I already know of those, but in all honesty... none of them has really helped me.

Hmm, to me it mostly looks like it needs texture fixes and the hair that sticks up is too large...  there also seems to be some sort of ike hair still remaining there and going to the wrong side... yeah so just fix the top parts of his hair and the textures and it should come out awesome ^^ if the cape could be moved closer to his arm that'd be awesome too.

That new Vaati is epic sir! Now he looks a lot like Vaati and not much like Toon Link. Very nice update.

Overall, it's pretty good. The hair could use more editing, though. Same applies to the face.

But about the hair, I heard it's a pain to edit, so do the best you can.

Well, sorry guys, but unless one of you actually bothers to say what exactly is still off and how it needs to be changed, I'm not going to do a thing.
So, get me some constructive criticism or gtfo.


Huh. Didn't expect hearing something along those lines from you, but... I'm definately not complaining, thanks.

That general area still reminds me of ike and it would probably look better going the other way (mirrored). The hair sticking out at the top would look better if it was made skinnier but I guess that can be fixed with texturing and yeah.. That's about it... It all looks great apart from that and some easily fixable texture stuff (looks to saturated IMO)

Felix is my fav golden sun character so I guess that's why I'm being kinda picky about it XD

Much better.

But honestly, I don't think I can really do much more about this. Ike's hair is a pain to both model and texture, so I don't really think that I can get it much more accurate.
As for the textures, I myself am not really a fan of unsaturated textures like Zelda and Ganondorf have them... I just hate how that looks. So... not going to change much about that, either.

Eh, preview of the Sol Blade.
Thought I can as well throw that out.

...Only sword left to do now is that from the official artwork.

Hey Cal, could you vertex links sword and shield for me? Every time I try to vertex it it ends up inbetween his legs and sideways :l

I'l find a pic or make a simple outline of what I'm looking for. XP

No.

http://kc-mm.com/calamitas/i-understand-what-youre-feeling-ive-felt-it-too-but-standing-here-wont-bring-them-back/09-08-2011/

Also, poll.

This was really well done :3 Makes me wanna play TLA again...For the billionth time ^_^

I like the Tisiphone Edge the best, along with the Artwork sword.

Red swords are awesome looking :3c

I like "Sol Balde" the best :af:

Look at that detail! This is impressive man, you're getting better for sure. You did so many swords also. I'll be the one with the Master Sword.

K bye.

Felix is pretty good. Clean and recognizable.

Great Master Sword, Cal. It's perfect.

May be the best vertex of Ike's sword up to now.

>.>

Dem blades be smexy. 

Now if you excuse me, I believe you have a grave to put me back into.  Fetch the rubber pirate dude...

Thanks, guys.
...But y'know, I'm actually kinda surprised that so many people like the Artwork sword... I mean, at the time I made it, I really just wanted to get done with everything as fast as possible, and didn't even pay that much attention to the details anymore.

Anyway... I think next I'll go back to working on Ghirahim and Lust... I've put the former into the backseat for long enough now.
As for other future projects, I can say that I'm going to make a collab with Miacis at one point in the future to make Sveta from Golden Sun: The Dark Dawn (http://goldensunwiki.net/images/3/31/Stella.png).
Other than that... I'm thinking about revamping BlackBoo's Onox and Veran (moreso the former), and maybe doing Kamina before Vish or Aafyre get the chance to do so.

I will love to see revamped versions of Onox and Veran.

O HAI GAIS EYE DEDEDICED 2 MAEK MAH FAVRUOITE DBZ CHARACT0R PICLOLOL

...I'd never had seen that coming. Looking great so far, Cal. Really resembles Piccolo. :happy:

LOL

Thank you Cal" you made me lol. Apparently you see the avatar of mariodk.

The first spoiler made me lol hard

The second made me facepalm harder.

It was an honor.
And for being perfectly honest, I actually already decided to make this before he used it as avatar.


Y U HATE ON TUESDAY?! >=3
Would you prefer me releasing it on Friday?

dude im making piccolo with stallion and its hella popular, you really shouldnt..... oh wait.

i lold, piccoyoshi ftw.

LOL
JUST LOL

Oh man! That Piccolo looks so good and delcioius, that I'm not even gonna finish mine, cry for a couple of hours, and quit hacking forever and ever. Before that, I'll make a dramatic exit on the "Leaving" section.

Now real [censored], I thought you were just being trolly and just changed the title, but you actually did a hack, and on Yoshi too! He lacks good things, and this I will be getting for sure.

I know this is intended to be funny and it did make me laugh and [censored], but I'm still getting it. <_<

Are you a yoshi?

Ya know, if this is an attempt at hate art...Er...hate/troll hack to make DBZ fans disappointed, then considering DBZ Abridged, I don't think you're going to succeed very well. xD

That aside, tis cute. :< *huggles Piccoyoshi* I shall luff him and hug him when he is released. :<

Holy crap you did MarioDK's old avy.

YEAH!! piccoloish or Yoshiccolo
anyway the avvy i Found is sure a idea from here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GuTamQ5thY
:af2:
anyway good work on piccoloish or Yoshiccolo or whatever we can call him

I believe we shall dub him "Piccoloshi"

That video has completed my life now.



It shall be [censored]ing done.

;o

Uh, yeah.

And since this place is getting at least some attention due to this, I think I'll "announce" two things:
First, I'll probably finally take the time to revamp the OP tomorrow.
Second, I decided to make two versions of Mr Fabulous new Zelda villain aka Ghirahim (http://zeldawiki.org/images/4/4f/Ghirahim.png). The one Sheik, which I've already been working on for a while, and a new one over Marth, since I'm really starting to believe that he allows by far more accuracy.

WHY HE BE NEKKID!?

Also I contest your post good sir. Dragonball isn't bad. It's overhyped yes, but I personally find it more interesting than bleach, and One Piece was garbage. But I haven't seen more than a few episodes that aired on Toonami. But first impressions are important.

Bottom line, Dragonball isn't bad, IMO better and easier to follow than bleach and way better than One piece, which was garbage.

...no. |:[

I do agree with you dragonball Z is overrated though.

Title.
Finally took the time to do this...
Nothing outstanding, but I think it's good enough.

Three guesses as to what this is, first two don't count.

The balls are inert.

Who is Ghirahim?

Is it Gilgamesh's sister?



That must be her..



Lmao!

LOL.
That new Zelda villian in Skyward Sword.

WHERE VEGETA?!! I dunt no why u thinK u make Pikolo PERFcCt but no Vegeta. Doo NappazZ?!*!

Oh god, the stupidity I just pretended to spew just destroyed my braincells. Is this how they feel all the time? I loved Dragonball Z when I was like 8, and it is kind of fun to have Trunks for nostalgia, though I will not even attempt to defend that it was a good show. One episode has about 20 seconds of content. Bleach is definitely better (though the filler is painful). Can't speak for One Piece as I haven't yet started it, though I plan to soon, and have high hopes for it. I honestly haven't watched a shonen anime in like forever; like everything I've seen in the past 6 months has been seinen.

I am looking forward to your Gilgamesh, and congrats on getting like the most commented blog post in history.

I mistyped, my bad. (¬_¬)

yeah, its understandable, they both have weird names... xDD

Almost done. . . >_>
Or rather as much done as I'm willing to do about this. I just can't do too much with Sheik, and considering that the model importer is most likely done soon, I'm not too motivated to make a character that'll have a model available in little over a month. <_<
But I'll still finish this, and an alternate Marth version. . .
This one only needs some minor model fixes and some texture work.

Hm... Not bad honestly, just needs a bit of shading and what not, although you should also post some in game pictures, it's easier to judge something when it's properly animated, rather then in a T-stance.

*Reads title*

Hehe, lolno :P

Ghirahim is looking nice by the way.  My main recommendation would be to make the waist thinner.  He looks unnaturally stocky at the moment, when he should be lean and muscular.  I also think the head could be more delicate and thinner.  Also, are you going to do some of the finer details like the chain that goes across the upper part of his chest?  I think that would be nice.

haha, lolno indeed. XD

Girahim is probably as good as you're going to get with sheik. That's what sucks, Sheik's not exactly good for hacks, but she'll probably be awesome for imports.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention.
Sheik version will have disabled bones since I don't think that removing the ponytail works any other way.


Yeah, it was more like wishful thinking, anyway.


I guess I can make him thinner, but adding the chain-thingy would only be possible to do texture wise. Sheik's just too limited when it comes to that kind of details.

*Says lolno as well*

You want attention, go make a goodbye thread.

No real [censored], make an outstanding hack. Them leaving will not give you automatic attention.

Also, if you really want attention, make characters from other series rather than Golden Sun, Okami, One Piece, etc.

You gotta do popular characters from popular series.

There's a reason why I don't make Earthbound stages anymore. :c

Now goodbye.

EDIT: I took the poll's virginity.

Bye again.

I expected as such.  Oh well, it would still be nice for it to be textured on though :)

Doing characters from other series actually does limit my options a bit then, since I only do characters I actually like and that don't have 3D appearances/high quality 3D appearances.
But oh well, I guess I can always try to learn how to make stages, since I plan on doing that some day, anyway.

hm.... you are pretty good. do you take requests?

Let me guess, u want him to make Amy Rose?

...its that obvious XD

I can tell you now, Cal won't do any Sonic characters :P

SonicBrawler, you know he despises the Sonic series, right?

yes
nope

Amydorf.

That is all.

He makes fun of it by making characters over different characters.
EG: Shadow the Kong

oh, i tohught that was just for fun. oh well

No.
Especially not if it's Sonic or Dragonball Z characters.


I only make that kind of hack for characters that have comparatively few hacks for them. . . >_>
And even so, Shadow the Kong is already enough for that series.


Not really the series. The games themselves can be quite fun, and the music is good.
But what the fans make of it is just horrible.
Same with Drag on ballz. Except for the "being able to be fun" part.

So what you working on now cal? :af:

What Seg said.
Aside from that, also Lust. . . and I plan on starting some blue-haired dude with shades soon.

Franky?

No.

Darn... then who? Kamina?

How many blue-haired guys with shades are there?

To my knowledge, 7.

(http://img2.lln.crunchyroll.com/i/spire4/190768d3f39a21bd6500e988be602ac71263514228_full.jpg)
Enough to hinder a guess... r)

Lust, huh? I really want to see that one done.

Well, to my knowledge only two.
Since I already said who it isn't, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out who it is.



Three.
Who's that now?

Piccoloshi made my day.
Especially being a DBZA fan.

Funny how you make a joke hack from an anime you hate, yet you have people come to your thread to tell you how much they love it.

Irony.

I don't specifically hate the anime, I rather hate what the fanboys make of it.
And yes Brohan, I noticed.

Two ideas Cal
Male Zelda
Female Ike (actual female with long hair and stuffs)

Now now, did Cal ever said he was taking Ideas/Requests?

'nuff said.

What Seg said.
Honestly, you can put your damn requests to that one place where the sun never shines for all I care.

i though i read that he he was taking requests. sorry

They're just ideas, not requests, no need to [censored] about it :srs:
Oh yeah, put it in the request board :srs: that ideas been on there LONG before I mentioned it in this thread.

Female Sheik has been done, so why not a male Zelda? :l Seriously....
Just saying....

Yah, another in-game preview of Ghirahim. Has been a while.
I'll probably release him like that as well, since with the model importer released, and Skyward Sword being a few weeks away from release, I don't see much of a point in continuing with him. . .
Won't exactly be my best work that way, but still far from my worst.
Once that's done, I'll completly move on to making characters that never had a 3D appearance/only had an ugly one.
So that means, in addition to Lust, also Kamina for now.



. . .I guess asking for some attention is futile now, since all the hype's now at the Imports board? >_>



(http://i.imgur.com/pquil.png)

Not your best work, but the dude is going to be imported the second Skyward Sword is out, so there really is no reason to keep going. Still not that bad.

NZM...
Shiek IS a female *facepalm*

Why do you want to swap the genders of characters so much?

http://kc-mm.com/calamitas/zelda-villains-now-as-fabulous-as-final-fantasy-villains/10-26-2011/

>_>
Released.

2D based Characters? You mean like this concept?


And by "near future," I really mean like, right now thanks to importing.

Not bad Cal, not bad. I think it's best to just start doing characters that only have sprites, as to how they'll be imported by someone one day or another.

Also, that picture you showed to SDo0m on the blog, will cause me to never sleep again.

By 2D-based, he means he'll make hacks of characters that don't have any existing 3D model, like what he did with Vaati.

What Seg said.
So, mainly anime characters, or characters from old 2D / early 3D games.



Yeah, my train of thought exactly.
Plus, I don't really feel like doing entire models myself from scratch and then import those. . . for that kind of thing, I just don't have enough confidence.

And in that case, you definately shouldn't watch a video that shows what Ghirahim does exactly before his boss fight to Link.

So that means legitimate Megaman? I might have to get off my ass for once...

[censored]. Is it one of those things that one doesn't want to watch, yet you still end up watching? I'd compare this situation to Two Girls One Cup, or maybe the movie, Paranormal Activity.

Did curiosity kill the pothead cat? Yes.

I usually don't really like showing previews that are this early, but since this is going so smoothly, I thought I might as well.
Face so far was definately easier than I expected, though.



Well, it's not that bad.
But it still is rather sick.
Basically, he teleports behind Link without the latter realizing it, leans over his shoulder, and then sort of. . . sticks out his ridicilously long tongue.  But, he doesn't exactly touch Link with it, he just sort of. . . flails around with it.

Kamina!
Never watched Gurren Lagann, but I know the character :af:
Liking where this is going.

Shame on you! Do it NAO (it's on Netflix)

Good luck with Kamina, although even though Ike is probably the best choice I was kind of hoping it'd be over Falcon. "Just-who-the-hell-do-you-think-I-am-PAWNCH!!"

(http://i.imgur.com/HDRz2.png)

Yeah, mostly texture work from now on.
Final version will have shades, I only disabled them in this preview so that you can get a better view of his face.



http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=16380

This should do for that.

Dayam.
You work fast Cal.
Lookin' good. Can't wait to see what he looks like with his shades on.

Well, I guess that can easily be blamed on the fact that this entire thing is going way more smoothly than I expected =P

Anyway, I worked some more on the textures since last preview and got now this:

(http://i.imgur.com/lNiPa.png)

I think he could be a bit skinnier, but still, it's Kamina. Awesome.

body shape more stylish??? looks kinda blocky...

Yeah, the only thing I can see that could be improved besides the texture, is that the lower body should be less as wide as the upper body, so he can look like he doesn't have skin painted on a shirt...

Well, be glad that you said that now, because I haven't started exporting yet, so I can do something about this more easily. . .

sorry for giving feedback, u troll...

You call that feedback? That wasn't feedback. You were doing little more than just stating what it looks like.
Honestly, you could've as well said "Dat kinda looks liek Kamina", and I'd know as much as I do right now.
If you had specified what exactly is "blocky", be it torso, face, arms, legs, or whatever, that would've been feedback. But not what you said.

Edit:
Now, once I'm at it. . .

I'm reaaaaly liking how this is coming out ;D

Same here.
 :af:

And now, for some first in-game pictures!


Only minor fixes left now, like editing the hair some more, make his neck fit with the rest of his skin tone, add in some details, etc.

I love that [censored]y smile of his :P

WHO THE HELL YA  THINK I AM! (http://i.neoseeker.com/mgv/434110-Anime%20Gurl/110/10/souleater41large24_display.jpg)

The texture's is kind of weird and the hair isn't spikey enough, but overall it looks good so far. Also please add a Sephiroth sword version, given how stupidly long it looks in the anime.

he has holes in his face/head, its probably cuz u used the bandanna for the glasses, right?

Not very helpful. How about you tell me what part of the texture exactly is weird? That'd help a bit more, y'know.
As for the hair. . . Kamina's hair isn't exactly all that spiky, so I'm not really going to change much as far as that goes.


Yes, yes it is.
And now I'm having some trouble closing the holes with his hair. . . but it'll work out somehow.

Anyway. . .
I'm not exactly sure whether I'll be able to make his arms perfectly fit together model-wise, so that they don't look weird during animations, so that might become a flaw that'll still be in the released version.
Oh, and the only alternate versions I'm gonna make will be shades, and shadesless.
Just sayin'.

Are you going to null the normals especially for the feet?

The feet bother me personally not so much for being honest. . . but I guess I can make an alternate version with nulled normals for those who prefer it that way.
Even though I've never done that sort of thing before ._.

Anyway, got some more in-game pics!

SMELL MY  FIST OF MANLINESS!

looks retty nice.

holes are still there... but yh, i can live with it

"When they talk about Team Gurren's badass leader, they're talking about me,
the mighty Kamina!"

I absolutely love the tatoo and bandage textures you did on him,
and dem shades :happy:

Ze previews continue!
And I dare say that I think I'm actually getting the hair of a character right!
Oh yeah, aside from that, you get to see his eyes without the shades for once, as well as the final smash "spiral eyes".


Really hoping to release this soon, but since I really want this to be as perfect as it is possible for me / want to at least reach the level of Aafyre's Zero/Lelouch, it might still take a while, since I'm really taking care of details this time

 ;D Them blue eyes stare into the core of my soul  :happy:

Very nice so far  ;)

I think the FS eyes need to be a touch darker, they look a bit out of place in comparison with the rest of the textures as they are now.
The hair is great, I know how much of a pain Ike's hair is to edit so I'm impressed, it's much better than Felix's hair was.

Might I also suggest hexing over UV's #10 and #14 from my Ragna hack... it should sort out the messy texture bit on his forehead ;)

Well Spiral Energy is suppose to be all bright and glowy.

I know that :P
It's just that Ike's FS eyes make them even more bright and glowy, more so than I think they should be, in relation to his normal eyes atleast.

Mh. Wasn't exactly too sure about the Final Smash Eyes, but I guess it won't hurt too much if I made them still somewhat darker. Y'know, in the first version where I tried them out, you actually couldn't even see the spiral stuff due to how bright they got. . .
And yeah. . . I think Ike isn't exactly the best character for having long hair. But still, considering the limitations, I think Felix' hair came out alright.

As for the UV stuff. . . I'd try that, but I've actually never done that sort of thing before o.o'

Well then.
Nulled the normals.

(http://i.imgur.com/VIQ8a.jpg)

Took the UV edits from the panda, as suggested by him.
This will include four versions:
Shades
Shades + Nulled Normals
No Shades
No Shadoes + Nulled Normals.

Believe in the release that believes in itself and is tomorrow.

Kamina looks pretty great Calamitas!

Can't wait to see what you plan o making next.

OK, this sure is badass, I love TTGL.
