The Dame

Heres an animation test - i'm quite pleased with it...
It was just to test the hand turn originally but i got carried away...

Click the image below for 'vimeo' clip:


I'm not impressed with the video encoding... if you would like to see it in better res, with some AfterFX click here. (600k ish)

In the end i went back to Hayvern's switch front/back hand method... i also added a 'junk' switch in between, for single frame 'blur' used here... i'm not as subtle as he is when manipulating the hand rig but with some practice i think it could be a good solution... i think main problem is with lack of planning, so i only have a single hand shape rigged, which makes it impossible to make a fist for example...

Anyway - i'm getting to grips with knowing what is where on the timeline now, which allowed me to animated the dangly bits (earings, hair, necklace and a bit of boobies) on their own keyframes...

Comments, as always, appreciated.

Really love your designs. She kinda reminds me of an eastern european version of Scarlett O'hara.

Awesome designs and animation!

BTW, I like the bigger-headed version more, and the beauty mark didn't bother me.

In the first video, one thing bugged me, though. When her mouth opened, her chin went down much farther than the opening space between her teeth would suggest.

Put another way:

Distance between teeth when teeth are apart a little bit = x
New chin location when teeth have parted a little bit = x+x+x

(But maybe she has a huge overbite! That could explain it.)

Nice work, for sure. Love the faint.
