Gameboy Trainers in 3D: Bug Catcher Al

3D ModelNoAI

The second in my line of Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal trainers! Learned some handy tricks that should make creating these models quicker, which is good since that’s kinda the point. I want the process of making a character to be like breathing to me.

This is an odd sprite as the legs and feet are basically powerpuff girl-esque which lead me to giving him sandals similar to ones I wore as a kid. I was also suprised to learn the first Bug Catcher you meet in GSC is in Bugsy’s gym! Never would’ve thought. The base of the figure represents wherever you find the trainer in the game, so I had a lot of fun recreating Bugsy’s gym’s indoor forest floor. Bugsy himself will eventually be remade in 3D too, but that’ll be after creating every normal Trainer in the game first so…don’t hold your breath lol.
