Hi all,
Some of you might have already seen this in the stills WIP forum, but I'm about ready to start animating now.
It's eventually going to be a music video for a song called 'Vanity Fair' by Mr. Bungle. My idea was to have babies in a nursery singing and playing the song. They're all "asleep", but when the nanny turns out the lights they spring into life. Think along the lines of Maggie in the simpsons when she gets put in the nursery.
I'm going for a kind of cartoon-like look to the piece, hence the exaggerated features of the babies and the textures. I'm probably going to put more detail into the textures of the babies' clothes, but I'm behind my schedule so I need to get animating.
Anyway before I start if anyone could give me any crit or comments on my characters that'd be great.
Cheers.

So they're the main characters. There's also some backing singers, but they're basically clones. Also here's some of the face shapes I've made for the main singer. Some don;t have the texture on because it's an old render but you get the idea...
