Rigging & Skinning

This was the part I was absolutely dreading, but I have now finished rigging and skinning! Took tons of screenshots as I did it, mainly so that I could keep track of what it was I was actually doing!!! After this I now need to weigh each bone then create four separate text files for the four characters and get texturing and then onto animation. :D

Entrance lobby!

So here's a picture of my entrance lobby, its completed but needs expanding and texturing, and the little things like till and bin put into it. There's going to be a doorway on the ground floor for Reginald to go through, as I really dont fancy him walking up stairs haha


The characters are nearly done at last!!!

Just found this...

As I was mooching around looking at how others rig and animate their characters, I found this short video of someone attempting lip sync. It's worked quite well and I'm feeling quite confident about doing it myself now.

Also, the style of modelling and animation is very close to the style I'm trying to attempt. Happy days!
