Comics, even CG ones such as mine, suffer (well, suffer might be too harsh a word) when reduced to a 2D medium. When 3D artists work in the 3D space, they have the luxury of finding the best camera angle(s) and poses, to create the perfect 2D frame for the comic that gets the scene’s mood, the character’s attitude, and the overall feeling across.
But the reader only sees the one frame. They are forced into a contrived space of the artist’s choosing. This can be strange, especially in erotic CG art, where a reader might want to ‘know’ what a particular character looks like from other angles. Just like viewing multiple photos from different angles of a model will help a person visualize in their mind what that particular model might be shaped like, so we are forced to do the same in 3D. Or are we?
I present to you, as a new feature on my blog, 3D Character Turntables. I am not suggesting I am the first person to create such a thing. In fact, this idea is used a lot in 3D to give a clearer idea of the dimensions of a certain object. I just thought it would be an interesting feature for my visitors to embrace, to allow them to really examine their favorite characters from different angles.
You will find this feature in the right sidebar, below the links. To use it, simply click/grab the image with your mouse and rotate it left or right. Check back often. I will update these turntables frequently, eventually covering all of my characters (yes, even the dudes), to allow you that extra glimpse into the character’s physique. I hope you take your time and really enjoy getting a ‘feel’ (pun intended) for your favorites! Take care!
