Just amazing!!!
the green big guy is the best!, congrats!!!
Gorgeous characters. Love the consistency in style and the different character types.
Nice animation. 
Can you tell us something more about rendering in cartoon style that you used? What software do you used? Or which render do you used? 
Some tips? Thanks!
YOu could post a pic of what the typical base mesh looked liked before you started sculpting away to define the characters?
Thanks

Gud work!!!
This style resembles The Incredibles a lot, I like it.
Also the styling of the forhead-nose area is somewhat a Greek thing, which is a good idea when its about IOC 
Very nice work.
This was all created in 3DS Max, using Vray and After Effects for the comp work. The cartoon style was mainly a result of the comping and the fact that the characters have toony features and a colour palette to match. One good idea was to take a Vray Diffuse Element and put it above the beauty layer at about 15%, this lightened all the shadows and flattened it in a toony style but without taking out all of the subtle shading.
The base mesh was a free one from this very site! Can’t remember where I found it now. I will try and dig out an image. The head base mesh was from something I modelled on a previous job that looked nothing like these characters, which was fine because I softened all of the details out anyway to start with a blob that had vaguely decent topology.
Here are some screen shots at higher res.

Beautiful work!
Great job, now I’m looking forward to the olympics 
Amazing.
Loved seeing the concept sketches, clay and zb sculpts together. Thanks for sharing.
thank you man, africa and oceania (the front/side views) are frekkin amazing, perfect cartoon proportions for skinny-man and strong-man… im going to use these as reference for proportions for making videogame (iphone) characters for a while probably— thank you thank you! inspiration…
if you could put front/side/perspective renders up of the other characters , that would be super cool… these characters proportions are seriously amazing, and should be studied by everyone
Thanks for the kind words everyone…and for the top row too! WOOHOO!
By the way, in a bid to expand our pool of freelance talent Nexus are looking for great artists based in London. Even though we are a 3DS Max studio, we are also hunting for good Maya modellers too. We have some great projects coming up in the New year too. Please contact [email protected] or [email protected]
