Minor Project - Eagle Leg Skinning



I ran into some problems with the skinning to start with, but it was a mistake that I had made myself. Once I fixed my mistake I was able to mirror the skinning and move to the rest of body.

Minor Project - Pigeon Wing Changes




Along with the eagle the pigeon also has now got his wings changed. This should hopefully make rigging the wings a lot easier for both of my characters. I might add some more feathers underneath the bottom layer to thicken the wings out a bit too.

Minor Project - Eagle UVs





(Arms)

(Body)

(Eyes)

(Head)

(Leg Cuffs)

I've laid out the UVs for the eagle, except the feathers because there are a lot of them and that will take a little longer.

Minor Project - Eagle Snagging List and Model Assembled





This is the model with the head and body attached. I had to make some adjustments to the head in order to attach them, but I like the outcome.

Minor Project - Eagle Wing Changes




After a discussion with Alan I am changing the way the wings look in order to help speed up the skinning and rigging process. I am a lot happier with the look of the wings like this however they look very thin. I will add more layers of feathers underneath the bottom layer of feathers to thicken out the wings. Also, I will cover the bone with smaller feathers so it does not stand out so much.
