Erik Lip Sync- Feast Your Eyes

Quickie lip sync practice to test out new model.

Sound from the cheesy little 1987 children's cartoon of "Phantom of the Opera." See it here:

Oddly enough, that's the only place I found this quote actually spoken. The only other movie that even mentions the line is the silent one, which was not usable for obvious reasons. XD

All modeling, texturing, rigging, and animation done by me in 3Ds Max 9, ZBrush, and Photoshop.

You know what's funny about the human face? The nose makes or breaks it.

It you cover that 'great black hole' with your finger and picture a nose in it's place he just looks like an old man!

If Erik did look like this in the imagination of Leroux, he should've just worn a modified eyepatch on his nose xD

[SilverDrgnbane]

@OushGisher He does. Leroux describes Erik wearing a false nose at least once or twice. I believe there was even a mustache attached. lol

This is freaking fantastic! Do you plan on making any more of these or a longer clip of this one? It's just so good.

[SilverDrgnbane]

@EponineGraydeChagny Thanks. I'd like to make more of these, but life is busy. I have a newer cartoon Erik which I would love to use one of these days, as well as a Christine. Some day I will revisit this work. Lip sync is good practice. :)

Lol, he looks like Voldemort from Harry Potter XD

[SilverDrgnbane]

Nah,,, Not as much as my previous model. XD

[KryssLaBryn]

Hey, Leroux!Erik! AWESOME stuff! Can't wait to see more!

LOL I know that vid... Sadly, I think he should be a bit more emotional at that moment, heh. Still, it WAS the closest to the book so far...

*jumps* Holy crap! I clicked on a link and I totally wasn't expecting that!

*watches video again* Wow. That is awesome!

[TheTitanic4]

Cartoon erik's voice is so awesome! :D

[MissCrabyCake]

It looks so realistic, but there is not enough emotion in his face. Also Is it weird that I am reminded of lizard-men? Probably the texture of his skin and his "nose" Fantastic job, though. Don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise.

AAAAaaaaaahhhh... Wait... Where's the ugliness?

~ Something a phan girl would probably say... I think

Great job! It's such a shame the animation from the actual cartoon was so terrible, but this certainly makes up for it.
