A peek at a new Spore-style “Avatar Toolkit: Monster Workshop” Series, coming soon for iClone. Needs a really cool classic 1930s Mad Scientists Lab to accompany it, perhaps?
Month: August 2012

Carnivorous plant for iClone
3dFoin’s Elongata is now available for iClone for $19 (with animations), at 3Dfoin.
I’d love to see Foin tackling a full set of the original H.P. Lovecraft monsters (Cthulhu, Nyarlathotep, Old Ones, Shoggoths, Azathoth, Mi-Go, Ghouls, Night Gaunts, etc) sometime, since they’re now all in the public domain. I’m sure they’d sell, especially at Halloween.

Free lowpoly dinosaur for iClone 5
Mutte’s really excellent low-poly stylised Blender dinosaur — converted and retextured by me, as an iClone 5 avatar freebie. The original FBX is also included, is anyone wants to use 3DXChange 5 Pro to rig it so it accepts stock animal motions. As it is, it comes with one basic animation, and you can make more with Motion Edit.
Mad Scientist set for Muvizu
A nice freebie coming soon to Muvizu, a free Mad Scientist Lab, to go with the new Mad Scientist character…
Meshlab 1.3.2
A new version of the excellent free Meshlab is available, 1.3.2.
Free Robot Dog for iClone
Here’s a free non-standard character I converted for iClone, a cool Robot Dog. Supplied as the base FBX, the iClone Project file with posed tail, and the actual Avatar. It should also be able to be rigged in 3DXchange 5 Pro, depending on what base creature skeleton you want it to have…
Thanks to Linil for the Creative Commons Blender model that I converted this from.
