Description
Cynder is finally done. All textures are finalized and put into place.Schneider45, I would appreciate if you would rig her. I will email the model when you are ready to rig cynder. Do not worry about tweaking the mesh, If any teeth need tobe moved I will accomplish that afterward.
there are a number of things I wish cynder to be capable of, besides talking
I want her to be able to curl her lips on the front and sides of both her bottom and top of her mouth to allow for lip-syncing
I want a system for the wings, where if an object is moved to the left or right, the wings fold closed.
I want another object that when moved up causing the wings to spread. when the object is moved down the tips curl. similar to this:

There need to be IK chains for all four limbs and her tail. when cynder's legs are lifted off the ground her toes need to curl. Similar to this: [link]
If you do not understand what I am saying, please tell me. I will happily find someone to translate, or create diagrams, if you wish me to.

Awesome work. I say cynder is ready for the movie. Chronicles of the Blue Flame has some competition XD

more of a friendly bit of competition though.
speaking of which heres some very very useful tutorials for concept art. I thought you might find them useful:

anyway I also was experimenting with procedural textures in blender and came up with one that works great for dragon scales. It's currently being used on cynder's belly.
here are the settings I used.
You may want to tweak them or use them in conjunction with actual normal maps but I thought they might be helpful. I'll probably use it on the guardians to decrease the amount of time spent sculpting scales.

I really would love it if you were a texture artist and modeler for CotBF. But your very busy with project frixion. I just LOVE your texture style. It's actually very realistic. Oh, CotBF has two versions of it. One will be normal and the second will be 3d(as in wearing the glasses)

good luck with that.
blender does have a stereo camera system according to the wiki manual: [link]
setting the proper distance is going to be a pain. I suggest rendering a small animation(2-4 minutes) and asking for input on which one people Like better.
I'll be watching the 2D version though. 3D tends to give me headaches regardless.
