I chose to use Adobe Flash and have to work on a 3D interactive flash for my final year project. For first few months, I have to do research to see the different kind of toning and shading from manga 3D characters. I chose to research on manga character because it also can express out the 3D human expression and body. Everything drawn is by lines and reshaping the lines to curvy lines to draw out the character. The drawing can be quite tedious and time consuming if it is a complicated character with many tones and shading on them. I tried my first attempt.
I start a new flash because Ms Chua wants the library of human features re-usable. I was thinking of a drag and drop function on many kinds of features, clothing for male and female. I drew up dummy and so the user can drag and drop over to create the dummy wearing the 3D features and clothing. This is my second attempt.
On week 5, Ms Chua discuss with me about my flash project to change to something more interesting. I have to store all the drag and drop features and clothing together. When the user finishes designing their models, they can select to save this model. The model thus will be transferred to another background and do some actions like swaying of body, wave hand, its all depends on what user has chosen the for the action available. I’m still working on it.
Note: I have difficulties in placing the flash into this blog so i did the print screen of the flash I did.
