What Did YOU Do to Poor Mancandy? (Win a Prize!)

67

ddwagnz_mancandy_trouble2-1.pngHere's a thread that I particularly enjoyed over at the BlenderArtists forums: ddwagnz has created a number of images, all featuring the well-known Mancandy rig by Bassam Kurdali. Mancandy is an amazingly flexible rig and if you haven't tried it yet, I think you should!

Anyway, the reason I enjoyed the thread is that all ddwagnz's images in which Mancandy poses are either slightly naughty (work-safe, don't worry), or awkward for Mancandy. This led me to wonder: what did YOU do to poor Mancandy?

Submit your work here; I'll send a free copy of Tony Mullen's 'Introducing Character Animation with Blender' to the creator of the funniest image (to be determined by the audience here). Deadline is next thursday.

Have fun!

  1. cool! bart this awesome, thanks for doing it.
    btw, the latest prerelease is pretty much final; the only reason I haven't made the announcment is I'm working on a demo video (and haven't decided on a nice (open) license to use- don't worry, it'll be something as permissive as I can find.

  2. hahahahahha, im surprised this made blendernation guys!
    i log into coders and get told i am mentioned on blendernation,
    =D
    All thanks go to Bassem for the exellent rig!

  3. Chris: you're image didn't show up, try maybe hosting it somewhere (like photobucket) and then providing a link.

  4. @Chris: interesting, Mancandy's head wants to stay up, looks like Mancandy is actually tired a lot ... but some other side of him just wants to go away, maybe just want to lay down, but his so tired ... nice concept ....

    .::PiPi::.

  5. @squareline - re:your still: Holy Smoke! Would you believe I actually made the exact same image of Mancandy balancing on one hand, then decided not to post it!

    That's freaky!
