形式:ペーパーバック
日本ではまず紹介されることのない内容です。
フィルムなどの最前線で活躍している方が基本を踏まえながら、
惜しみなくテクニックを伝授しています。
演習に使われているキャラクターには好き嫌いがあると思いますが、
目的はこれらの演習で学んだテクニックを叩き台にして、
それぞれのクリエイティブワークに生かすことなので、
全く気にしなくても良いと思います。
むしろ、ファーを使って髭や睫毛を紹介する必要があったので、
2枚目キャラや女性キャラクターではなく、このようなキャラクターになったと思います。
もっとも、ヘアは女性でも良かったかもしれません。
この価格なら、特にファーやヘアの学習のためだけに買っても良いくらいの内容です。
文章も体系的で読みやすいと思います。
演習用のデータなどが入ったDVDが付いています。
インターネットも普及しているので、
もはや、DVDをつける必要は無く、
価格を下げるために、ダウンロード形式にした方が良いのと、
全ページカラーじゃないのが惜しまれます。
もしかしたら、日本語版が出るかもしれませんが、1.5倍〜くらいの価格になると思うので、
円高で安く買える英語版をおすすめします。

hair and fur is good; but clothing has problems
2011/7/15
形式:ペーパーバック
The computer generated character on the cover preoccupies a considerable portion of the text. If you look closely at him, notice the hair, eyelashes, eyebrows and beard, and the zits on the face. The latter is a nice touch, to avoid making a face that is too perfect. But more impressive is how the former artifacts are constructed.
The irregularity of these contributes mightily to the realism. The text shows how 'fur' is made under Maya and Photoshop, and then adapted to become the beard and eyebrows and eyelashes. Fur creation and the associated baldness maps are easy to learn to make.
The text and the software make a distinction between hair and fur. Hair with its typical length is treated differently from the shorter fur. But as the reader can appreciate, learning to drop a customised mop of hair onto a bald head is pretty straightforward. There is no absolute demarcation between hair and fur in the code. A long beard might well be best made as hair.
The biggest problem, and what is currently the cutting edge, is the putting on of clothing in a realistic manner. The book is upfront about the drawbacks and the resultant artificial looks.

This is one of many books I have purchased, and as always this book was in mint condition. The price was really good.
The postage even though quoted, was delivered within 7 days, more than half the time of what I expected.
I am very happy and will continue to put Amazon first when I am looking for books.

Seems more like a "making of" then a tutorial book.

This is supposed to be (according to the title) a book about creating photorealistic characters in Maya. Right of the bat I would like to point out that it doesn't cover photorealistic eyeballs at all. You will not find them anywhere in the book. There are some nice color pictures of skin maps in the middle of the book and dedicates a few pages at the end of the book on how to use them. There is some good information about anatomy and clothing and how they are affected by the movement of the model. But the words "creating photorealistic characters" gives one the impression that actual modeling would be covered. It is not. The very first chapter of the book talks about motion capture for 2 and half pages and then just kinda glosses over rigging and skips right to paint weights. There is honestly less than one page of text and less than a page of images for rigging!
I cannot with good conscience resell this book, but I don't want it. I might sell it to a used book store so that whoever considers buying it can look at the whole thing beforehand. CD is still in tact. Wasn't worth opening.
