Scrooge McDuck

June 20th, 2007 by Adam McMahon

Here is a 3d model I created based on a sculpture I bought. I thought the original sculptor really captured the Disney character design well, which isn't easy to do. The early disney characters were in many ways created only for a 2d representation, so to translate that design into three dimensions isn't an easy task. Look at all the Mickey Dolls or CG Mickey's out there and there is always something thats just a bit off.

I learned a lot modeling Uncle Scrooge. There is one HUGE trick I picked up on this model, I'll try to post up a mini-tutorial soon explaining it so more of you can utilize it.

    Adam! Didn’t know you were blogging my friend. Uncle Scrooge looks real enough to dive in to a vault full of gold coins. Great looking model man. Now, share the tip you picked up :-)
