Why would you want his quills static? It just doesn't feel right that way. They probably didn't rig his quills if they were rushing to reveal Sonic as soon as possible. Everything is still WIP until release. Also, his quills do move in Generations.
Almost! He gave a hint he'd be updating Marth's design in an Iwata (okay, Sakurai) Asks about Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon. We took the hint and rolled with it and wouldn't you know it, we were right!
I'm going to assume not too many of you check out the blog for progress, so I'm posting this over here as well:
That Sonic render way too legit. Even Sega can make that quality. Great job.
It's been a while since I've given an update on this. It is actually quite near completion, mainly just have to finish up the PSA aspect of the Biggoron Sword version. Another thing standing in my way is the talk shp0. For some reason it seems to be incompatible with the vertex set (his throat verts shoot up through his head). The Blink and Ouch shp0 expressions work great though. I've got some new custom OOT item models in there that seem to be working fine, although I may size down that boomerang.
This is something I've been working on on the side, kind of a personal mod, but I may upload a pack with some of my toon Links that I'm working on. I decided to make a ALBW(ish) Link based off my ALTTP Link model. haha, I initially forgot to set up the objects properly, so he has two left eyes with the eye yellow showing and is missing his eyebrows in this pic.
