Character template for You, love Eric

[Bernie]

Those are great, really good reference material! The animations are a bit exaggerated - which is good, because you learn a lot just by looking at them.

[Cerulean]

Excellent. I figured out what's wrong with the back view, though: the exaggerated perspective of the front view has been turned upside down. The feet should be closer to the center when they're further away from you, and vice versa.

Now all i need to do is make a game where the only characters are greyish android clones who walk around naked....


*idea*



omg, this is gonna be good

[Paper Carnival]

Awsome!

I think this should be sticked

[Vel]

Wow Eric! Those are freaking great!

[Darth Mandarb]

I think this should be sticked

Maybe not stick this thread ... but we could create a thread where people could post similar things like this?

A character template thread?Ã,  That way not everybody's character walk cycles will look like Eric's?Ã,  (not that that's a bad thing)

Might be interesting ...

[Scummbuddy]

that would be nice, because i was very close to finishing my own walk cycle template for people to download, and mine has running, sneaking and other views. Didn't Evil just release a character template too? I wish a central hub for downloads of templates, guis fonts, music was finally made and available.

This is awsome. My animations look way better now that I took a peek at your template.

[Minimi]

Awesome! I made my first character, just by having good looks at your old walkcycle tutor, but now I also have a good example for the front. I don't like paintovers, because it gives me the feeling of stealing work

Thanks again!

[Snarky]

I had a go at fixing the up view, since Eric wasn't happy with it. Like Cerulean said, it was a problem with the perspective being inverted.

It's not as polished as the original animations, particularly in terms of shading, but people are meant to paint over it anyway, right? Besides, this is my first try at anything like this. C+C welcome.

Thanks to Eric for making such a cool template! I hope this little tweak will come in handy for someone.

Edit: When I looked at the animation, I realized the guy was walking with his legs spread out like crazy. This looks a bit more normal, I think.
