Description:
So who doesn't like futurama?
This is bender from the animated series and I thought Bender could do with some blending so here you go!
Free model on the house.
He has a spline rig, with extendable robotic arms, but no bones for the fingers.
This was made for a single pose :P
Also he was rendered using a current build of blender with freestyle if you want to get the cartoon look :)
Includes the node setup for cartoon rendering.
Enjoy!
NOTE: I am not associated in any way with futurama, I just felt like modelling bender in blender :D

Written December 23, 2011Hi Guys, For the eyelids There I have used an IK constraint (I think it's on another bone layer)
for the freestyle strokes, I don't think I uploaded it with the line styles :O You need a build that supports edge marks - yours does. The "Marks layer" Add a freestyle module using the parameter editor, checking select by visible and edge marks. for the freestyle layer, I used the python editor with Qi0.py module (might be in the text editor?)
Hope that helps :)
I also did a few tweaks in post processing where the lines didn't work quite right.

Written April 20, 2012Hey guys, sorry if this is a newbie question, but what is "freestyle"? I assume it's a plugin or something for Blender? I'm specifically wanting more cartoony looks for my characters, so your comment got my attention =)

Edited April 20, 2012'Freestyle' is a specific module that has to be compiled in blender, You can get these builds from graphicall. If you want to learn how to use freestyle I have done a couple of tutorials on it at www.metalix.co.nz :)

Written February 05, 2013I'm just new in Blender, my first step was design a cup, then a glass, then water and then a bottle with some fruit soda
Your model is awesome! Could you please describe how your managed to move the eye-lids so perfectly with the b-bones?
