dudeacle that rules :) ... however i would very much like to see it again with the adjustment on the eyes that i suggested in the other thread .. using the Bank control to tilt the eyelids outward ... takes the 'evil' edge off :)

Darken-R, good stuff :thumbsup: ... are you planning to finish this? if so, i'd really like to see it ... if not, i understand heheh .. i can see what you're going for with the "baby" falling over at the end, but it's difficult to imagine the final motion with that rig o_o heheh ... if you do more work on it let us know!

sadly i wasn't able to get very far at all on mine :hmm: it's been a crazy couple weeks for me .. but if i have enough time i'll hopefully finish it and post it in the WIP/critique forum... or here.. or whatever ...

otherwise, what's the next challenge? :D

[Darken-R]

Vood you are right about his eyes, im glad you showed the difference between Evil Generi and Sad Generi, its a world of difference! I will go through sometime and change his eyes and ill post it in the progress thread.

I dont feel the need to vote for this one because only two people turned in animations. I think San-X should have turned in his because it looked good! We should vote on these when we have a larger turn out, right now im happy that many people are participating and are interested in it.

I think we should vote on the next topic. Come up with as many ideas as possible. If we come up with a really creative and fun topic then it will catch more peoples attention. I would still like to cater to short animations (2 week deadline) focusing on acting and movement.

if i knew that we had some time between the deadline and posting final animation - i maybe would improve it, cause i had some spare time theese days...
anyway - tahts what i have now
