my first attempt at ragdoll posing, so i made it a comic :) - Garry's Mod

Hello everyone. ive never tried ragdoll posing before cause im not very good at it yet but i guess ill never get good till i try huh? so ive made this little comic in gm_construct and i used construct cause A: i happened to be there and B: i dont see whats wrong with it for ragdoll posing :P anyway its of Kairi from Kingdom Hearts 2 waking up and going to school using a stargate. the wall is there because of a little zombie killing i did before i needed a good place to refill my ammo :P please rate from 1-10 10 being the best and comment any suggestions you have besides using a different map :) and i would have dome some finger and face posing too but the model i used isnt made correctly for finger and face posing yet :P hope you all like it :) btw the "[]"s above some of the pictures are what Kairi is saying in the frame below the text :P [IMG]http://i992.photobucket.com/albums/af41/ApertureMageMaster/gm_construct0005.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i992.photobucket.com/albums/af41/ApertureMageMaster/gm_construct0004.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i992.photobucket.com/albums/af41/ApertureMageMaster/gm_construct0003.jpg[/IMG] [Oh!

Amazing. A++ would read again.

thanks. its only my first try at posing though and the model isnt really good for posing but works good for statues. im gonna get a better model of her later that will be good for posing . but posing for me is gonna be a lot easier when i get a script im making done. im making a script thats supposed to make NPCs interact with stuff thats around them much more and better wo then i can just control the npc and tell it to do something and take snapshots as it goes :P

I think he was ironic. This is not that good, never use construct again, bad plot, bad angles. Never forget to activate anti-aliasing. Otherwise you're starting from a good base I guess.

ya well i really do see whats wrong with construct. just cause everyone knows every part of it doesnt mean its a bad map :P but whatever. i think im gonna use either an atlantis map next or a school anyway :P

It's not bad because everybody knows it, it's bad because it's just not good looking for most of the poses. But hey, those are just tips, you're free to ignore them if you want. Altho I don't think anyone here is going to tell me I'm wrong.

hm. i think that in this case it worked out well. but i guess thinkiung about it your right. anyway im looking for a good map download for my next one :P

This needs a new map and you need a lot more practice. Set your AA higher to. Jagged edges is a no no. The same goes for construct maps. They are gray, ugly and boring. Don't expect your first poses to be good. They never are. Listen to advice from experienced posers who point out the flaws (you soon learn who is who in here). Learn and improve. Here you can find a lot of maps [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?tag=Maps[/url]

And OP, jpeg_quality 100 can improve the quality of the picture. Not by a buttload, but it's noticeable.

nostalgia @ Kairi from Kingdom Hearts

I would refrain from using any anime/kingdom hearts models.
