Oh my god

i did the tutes, almost on lipsynch. I am completely blown away at the simplicity of moho. I was expecting to have to assign vert points to bones, etc etc... I dont have to. I can't believe how simple this is!!!!

A few things though, say I want to flip the head on it's vertical axis, say to "turn the head". How would this be done?

Thanks so much everyone!!! especially moho team!

Be on the lookout for some of my work!!!!!

Im planning on making a tv pilot hopefully! Maybe I could shop it out. We'll see.

I would say make numerous shots of the head in different positions and angles to mimic a turning head, But im a noob so i could be wrong.

There are a stack of topics on head turning, its the question of all questions. Pretty much at the very least you'll have to draw your character's head on the front, side and back, but most likely you'll want a few angled views in between as well. You can then make these heads visible/invisible whenever you want to use them, or put them all under a "Switch" layer, which will allow you to switch between any of your heads at a certain point in the timeline.

You can if you want.

You can flip a layer, or flip the shape inside the layer using the appropriate tools from the tool bar. Of course, if your head isn't symmetrical then this isn't a good idea (for instance, if the character's hair is parted on the right and you flip it, the flipped head will have the part on the left)
