3D Thomas the Tank Engine ver2

[Damocles178]

This is very impressive but what I find strange about this video is it's like a foresight into the future since the whole series became CGI a year or two afterwards.

[thebluetrain57]

I might be good at CGI. :)

Since I saw this in 2008, I take it the you will NEVER make any more cgi of this.

[TrainzContentHelp]

i like the shaking effect you have put on him

[GenghisKhan44]

lol! He winked at me!

[thomasthecpguy]

awesome.

[jimyjoe76]

Could I make this Animation with GMax?

[exveefan]

Won't know.

[hockey321smash]

You made Perfection!

Nice Job!

[Anthony3PO]

Perfect voice for thomas!

[inuyashakagome445]

were do u get it?

[ThomasPercyandToby]

He made it.

[peterandaluz]

any tutorials on how to do this? I have vegas pro 9 and adobe elements 7 hopefully that is enough, any hints tips would be welcome.

[exveefan]

Not sure what to suggest as I'm hopeless at giving decent advice. :-(

You need a 3D Program for one like 3D Max, Maya or similar.

(I'm not heard of, Vegas pro 9 and adobe elements 7)

It helps to start simple and slowly expand.

And practice practice practice.

[lucaslovesthomas]

which program did you use?

[lucaslovesthomas]

what program did you use and where might i be able to get the program you used!

[keikoandgilly]

That's very well done :)

I still prefer the old models though.

[VitasVarnas]

Just asking but could u do one for the Thomas sister series TUGS aka Salty's Lighthouse?

[exveefan]

Be an interesting challenge, but I don't think I can models tugboats to well.

[VitasVarnas]

Just do what u can. Would like to someone from TUGS like this :)

[MTwillman]

That's kind of what CGI will be

[jimyjoe76]

what does CGI Stand for

[exveefan]

Stand for "Computer-generated imagery".

[jimyjoe76]

ok thx

[ShadowDaGangsta]

Whoa...

[DieselD199]

Awesome. 5/5 :D

[MTwillman]

Creepy but cool

[haloisthebest2]

that is the best effects what did u use to make it

[haloisthebest2]

how did u make the engines

[haloisthebest2]

what website or thing did u use to make it

[donaldanddouglasfan]

how did you do that?

[StanierJack]

Really Good! 5/5

[blainethomas]

Just think if the engines could really move their lips like that.

[Armystuntman]

im afraid in season 12 they will

[exveefan]

Well considering that the TV versions are made by a professional studio.

And that I'm still new to the 3D modeling.

I think I've done a decent job at the time.

[startug]

Yeah, you did such a good job though!

[bratzaroundtheworld]

Yeah (I wish I could do that...)!

[bella4172]

Yeh? Well Its Now Happening On The Series!

[jenkins92]

WOW, THAT'S AMAZING!

[trainmaster844]

Hello everybody! Welcome to the Island of Sodor!

I'm glad they introduced that line to the show.

[jivio]

Cool, have you tried to do an episode with the engines like this apart from Thomas.

[exveefan]

To answer your question, sadly no.

I haven't made any of the other engines.

Unless you count the ones made for the simulation games, MSTS and Trainz.

But they were made in different programs.

However I often wanted to make an episode.

[fgthomasjp]

cool! But the mouth had better not move,; but ...

[exveefan]

I know they don't move there mouths in the show.

I only made him move his mouth to test out lip-syncing to audio.

Something that I'm trying to get right in animation.

[Zip4me]

very cool

[thomasfan4]

CooL!

[kph59]

Very Impressive. Great Job.

[ClearwaterFan]

That's awesome, do you think maybe you might be able to help me sometime to make the engines eyes move in my model series?

I am not expecting you to say yes right at this moment in time, as i know you are very busy, and i would also like to offer you a part in my AOS series when you are ready :)

[RiccardoDistefano55]

if i made a 3D thingy will i get a part?

[CatalanoArts]

Awesome!!!!!!
