Also you have to name 08 "The Grim Catcher".

hmm, didn't catch that on 45, but what you're seeing on 00 is his hand tentacle, not the head one.

Impressive! Congratulations!

Awesome work Jesse! I can see why your so dead to the world at work You set out to do the little league and exceeded!

impressive! reads really well.

Amazing thread and work. You deserve to be made into a meme

I HATE to think of these awesome characters going to waste! Come on Unity Programmers, make this into a game!!!

Truly amazing work my friend, well done! :-D

I wish I could come up with something negative to say just so I could feel better about myself, but you completely nailed this, skank. This is absolutely goddamn amazing and this thread should be archived for future generations.

damn skanker... job well done

Dat bottom right skeleton :P

Excellent work!

thanks for all the comments guys!

I'll update with documentation on how I got the shaders working next week.

I'm tired... u___u

Also, I'm going to post a postmortem too. There was so much I wanted to do with these guys that I didn't get a chance to do for several reasons, so we'll explore that too.

WOW!!!! thats killer

I'm really looking forward to all your documentation on this skanker I look at your texture sheets and half of them I have no idea what's going on >_<

awesome work! this is why I love PC.

Pimp man. Really dig your shader work.

not trying to sound stupid here, but I cant wait for you to explain whats going on with those last images.
assume it has to do with the shader-based coloring but damn... thats some next level shit mate.

Have a look at the individual RGB channels of the upper-right and lower-left images in PS to get an idea of what's going on with those. He's basically taking 3 greyscale images and sticking them into one texture via the individual RGB channels.

This thread blew my mind. Epic job, i learnt alot about modular characters and never thought about using the RGB Channels for character clothing, looking forward to seeing the shaders

love the style of these. grats on the work!

DUDE. you are awesome.
thanks for this thread of awesomeness and HUGE UPS on MAKING the assets for GRANDMAS BOY! wth! best movie ever. your the man.

Thanks for the tutorial man, a real inspiration.

Awesome thread, bookmarking this for sure! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing all this great info. Awesome work.

just wanted to thank you once again for sharing your process, had to design an npc system for a game and i implemented some of these techniques you used! Especially on the texture/shader side i'm able to do a shitload of variations now with only one texture and one shader ^^

Finally got around to archiving this in the wiki. Thanks so much Jesse for detailing out your process.
