Taco 3d model

Taco I did some time ago. I'm going to rerig the face this week, so that it's joints based like yatan rig. And ups, GUI's waitin' to be done too ^^"




B1 ppl!!~~

Testing final "yatan" rig !~~

Finally I entered the testing/polish stage with my alter ego rig [following Ringling Animation School idea for the assignment - I think it's great to learn to be more aware of own body language and reactions]. I discovered few days ago that spine is not eager to rotate and so I rerigged it [double ribbon ik torso] this night [1h of sleep :P ]
Facial rig is fully joints-based cuz it gives me the most flexibility.
Now the poses libraries are waiting to be done.

Presenting some of the expressions collection I drew some time ago.
Basically the goal was to see how far I can push it , so it's a good concept for 3d blend shapes for facial rigging. Model: Taco
