Mattias Jervill at CG Talk.com posted a rig demo of a 3d rig that allows for transforming 3D models. http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?threadid=592510&utm_medium=plugblock&utm_source=cgtalk Thought some folk around these parts would be interested in seeing it.
I'd just be happy to model that good. For the most part, I'm a Truespace guy... but MS bought out Truespace and I don't have the most positive feeling about it. Does anyone know if Blender can create rigs like this?
Coooooool. It's a pretty neat CGI model. However, I do have to say that the helicopter mode is stretching plausibility. The car and robot mode have a sort of Beast Wars/Beast Machines "close enough" transformation, but the helicopter one basically stretches believability. Perhaps if the guy had more helicopter kibble on his robot mode.
you should try to Compile it into The Transformers Game For Pc ( or anything else). It would be A great Model Addon.
