Moho Forum

Hey all, I have been gone for nearly a year now. I stopped by a few days ago and decided to pick up where I left off.
I noticed a lot of fish around here, so I went with that theme. I also tried to use the "3d style" that has been discussed a bit in the forum.

ahh well, Its my first time uploading anything so I hope you enjoy.

This looks great! I love the way the fish look!

Are the fish 3D or is it an illusion?

Thanks,
The 3d was an illusion, made by giving the; eye layers, back body, and tail a different "Z depth" than the main body. So when the camera moved Moho did the work. This kept him fixated on the center of the screen, so I gave him the worm to look at.

The body color was some PhotoShop pixel art stuff that I imported and set at 70% opacity, the bubbles were just a simple particle efffect, oh and I rotated his tail, fins and shading to add the illusion.

Looks cool. I'm starting to think we should have a 'community fish tank' contest and have everyone who wants to contribute a fish animation then put them all together and render them.

That is a wonderful idea!!!!!

That would be great, It would also help show how many different art styles are possible with just this one program.
