We were tasked the do some poses for a rig available online called the "Eleven11 rig". The first pose will be to model the rig so it looks like the boy who is bouncing the basketball.
Some challenges included the adjustments of it's back. Unlike the spiderman rig, this rig has more parts of the body which are made adjustable (yellow rings around the torso of the model). Thus many factors now need to be considered as the body has to look naturally curved. Since the arms are now thinner, I expect I won't run into the same problem compared to the spiderman rig, whereby the arms are hidden inside of the rig's torso.
The picture given also has limitations, as the boy is only seen from it's back view, we can interpret what form of pose the right hand is. So I did something else and formed my own pose/form for my right hand. It just has to be hidden from sight when the model is viewed from the back.
I also took the initiative to model something to substitute the ball in the picture, so as to make sure how my model will look in contrast to the ball.
Another thing to take note would be the eyes, as the eyes need to be positioned at an area where it will be aligned with the ball so as to make it look natural. Also needs to make sure model is looking at ball only.
Body also needs to look leaned towards the right (in this case). This is also to make it look natural, as he is suppose to be bouncing the ball and naturally needs to lean to one side too.
Legs need to look bend but not too bend. Also the foot has to look natural also, left foot touching the ground and right foot slightly above the ground.
Overall the model does not necessarily has to look so dynamic as the picture showing is a boy and being a young boy, one won't expect him to be so strong and dynamic in his actions.
Final pose of it's back. Looks fine to me, not able to tell the similarities too clearly as the boy is wearing a much 'bulky' shirt while the model is wearing tight-fit clothing.
