I thought I'd make a post about chicken feathers. For our short, we're using Maya 7. We're using Maya's fur system to generate the feathers. Now for the most part, a chicken's feathers are pretty tight to it's body.
The only place that this is not the case is in the areas of the wings and tail feathers. Here's what we're doing with the wings:
We've also rigged up the feathers on the ends of the wings to flex. We're not using them as fingers exactly, but we are bending them around quite a bit (mostly to help out the arcs in the animation on the wings).Anyways, I hope to post some finished renders of the chicken sometime soon, in all it's feathered glory.
