For many reasons, I hate working with the visor anis (think the David Toms model). The faces are too small, the hair looks matted to the golfers head, the apparel has to be put on backwards to show up properly in the game and almost nothing from any other ani model is compatible with them. So, for those reasons, I've been trying to come up with a better solution even before I had Maya. My Brandt Snedeker, Ian Poulter and Russell Henley anis were examples of those efforts.
I've gotten much better with sculpting in Maya as I've gotten experience and these pics will show examples of that. I am now able to customize the hair "styles" of the golfers using Maya and the hat model (the original Sergio for example). I simply place the hair on top of the hat so it gives the impression of being a visor. That's how I did the 3 mentioned above. With this current project to redo every single body type (hair, eyes shape, face shape, mouth shape, height, body shape, etc.) I've really been able individualize these anis more than ever before.
Enough of my blabbing about it I guess. Just check these out compared to my original 3 and especially the original David Toms anis from back in the day,

Re: Check These Out!!!!!
You are definitely the man.




Re: Check These Out!!!!!
You might (I said MIGHT) be interested to know that I'm so impressed with your work that I'm using "Big Sexy" as my ani.
That red outfit is just so...so...I don't know what to say...

Re: Check These Out!!!!!
Am I understanding this correctly. The king nit-picker himself is not only using my anis, but is using MY ani to play his rounds with? Wow. I'm honored Jimbo.
You'll have to post a pic of that outfit you are speaking of. I can't think of an all red outfit, but I do know all those shirts and pants were created straight out of golf attire I have in my closet upstairs. That ani was created before I had Maya so I need to improve it once I get some of this other stuff knocked out.

Re: Check These Out!!!!!
The Nitpicker has performed what I'll call the "Homage Nit". I'm debating whether to post it or send you a PM!
Anyway, I'll get it done shortly!

Re: Check These Out!!!!!
Ah. That's my Indiana Twins coaching gear golf apparel. There's some sentimental value in that outfit Jimbo, so wear it well. It might resemble a superman outfit, but the only super power it comes with is the Big Sexy chick magnet one. Wear it with caution.
I can just hear Jimbo breaking into his best version of Right Said Fred. I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt, so sexy it hurts.
