This may have been done as a school project, but I am seeing a huge potential here. I really love the way you used streaks of matching lights, to add a bit of dynamic action, and a hint that they're entering the combination sequence.
@Liam18MG : Because Deep Blue Something sings the song Breakfast At Tiffany's. They are the same band that does the background music for this piece, Gammer Gerten's Needle.
lol thats pretty awesome. i made one too back in 1999 with a program called strata. i should post it up. but im somewhat embarrass to show it. but hey we all have to start somewhere.
@juwell18: Yeah the project wasn't to entertain, it was to use the concepts taught in class to develop a 3-D model and anime it. I'm sorry that my 8 year old college project didn't entertain you, except I really don't care.
Jaime, nice work. Not too shabby. I challenge you to re-do this animation. Go online and find the orthographics for the different lions. Also, you need to work on your secondary motions. The leg motions are ok, but you need to study how lions move and see the way they run to match the animation. I highly recommend to use Mental ray for the texturing and use Vue to create the scenery.
Thanks for the constructive criticism, I appreciate it a lot. However, I made this animation in 2002 while a college student and I no longer have these files or access to Maya. I modeled the lions after toys that I owned, and the only movable parts were the legs and tails and neck, so that's why the motion focused on the legs.
@thoraxcs Jaime, I am sorry to hear that you no longer have Maya. However, you could download the trial version of Silo. I did and it has been quite fun to use once you get used to the controls.
nice! i like how fluid the leg movements are. i'm taking a maya course soon. i don't see why the audio had to be disabled for this. it's obviously for educational purposes.
I think he means we did not see the black lion enter, although the black lion did form the chest. Very nicely done. Well animated. I wonder if I can duplicate that in 3ds max?
Um, what color did you not see? If you're talking about order, I apologize but I hadn't seen the cartoon in over ten years and if I even got close then it was totally by chance.

omg I recognize those toy models. Those were the ones that were in stores just like 10 years ago right? When they tried to make that 3d remake.

this clip is good, but, what would make it even better in my opinion is having the pilots saying the words to make voltron.

Nice 3D Jaime, very good effort!

I've been making 3D too and I know how much love, dedication and effort is needed in making one.
Good job! Keep it up!
