Chapter 02: Page 01

Though this page may look simple enough, it took a lot of work to get it right. First of all, I had to remodel the piano that I built for Niobe's lounge in chapter 1 because none of the keys were properly articulated. Essentially I had to rebuild the keys themselves from scratch. Then I had to pose the hands correctly to have them interact properly with the keys - this was especially difficult since I pose my characters before importing them to C4D where I do the rest of my modelling. Thus I had to pose, import, see how it lined up, modify the pose, import again, make more changes, import again etc.

I've still only received a couple of fanart entries to the 2007 Calendar contest, so if you're thinking of taking part but haven't gotten around to it yet, why not get started this weekend? It doesn't have to be a masterpiece :)

Oh, I've finally gotten around to updating the links page. There are some very high-quality webcomics there, make sure you check them out.
