Moho Animation Forum

I was gonna blow my Paypal money on clothes but no.

I really want to start a web series, but I don't have the time or the smarts of the animators here to make character puppets.

I really want to do everything all by myself, but I just can't I'm not a genius at building characters and it makes me feel awful to have to ask for someone to literally make puppets but I know I don't know how to. I really wanted to try and make it myself because I'm the type of person who feels like if I don't have all the creative control then It's not my art or my own creation.

But this is animation and I have the art, designs and characts, storyboards all done. I have the concept art for backgrounds and everything is ready, I have voice actors too... BUT, whenever I try to build a puppet everything goes down hill.

I have 6 main characters, and ideas for others but thats so many that I know eventually I need to start building myself.



I tried to make a building devour a car. Epic fail. "Epic".

What do you want the character rigs to be able to do?

I'm definitely not the greatest rigger, but I am happy to give it a try (for free) on one of your characters, if it's something I can do. Just send me the pictures to base it on. I adore your work and want to see your series happen, too!

Thanks so much!

I can try to make model sheets..

I want them to be able to walk, and do basic 360 turns? It doesn't have to be disney but I want it to look nice but:

- walking
- turns
- fighting (balled fist)
- blinking

I need the face to be easily manipulated that's good.

Cool! It doesn't have to be a formal model sheet, I can probably figure most of it out from a full body picture of the character. Also I am using Asp 9.5. What version of AS are you using? I think you are on a newer version because I couldn't open your head rotation file. But you should still be able to open my files.

Can you also draw how the eyes should look when they're closed and half closed? I'm not sure what kind of eyelid your characters have.

if it's any help ... ASP 10.1 (free update from 10) has the ability to export as a V9 file. obviously the AS10 new features will not be exported (the ASP10 manual page 324 lists these)!

Ok and thanks so much ! I'll draw the eyes.

I also understand you said "try". ^^;

Awesome! I won't have much time to work on it until this weekend. I'll e-mail you then!

Thanks for the info, Hayasadist! I wasn't aware of that and I think it could help us out a lot!
