Hi people!

Im animating a new character Im working in, but Im a newbie in char animation, because I always worked in still models mainly.

Well, this time, I need help with the eyelids of a cartoon character.
I made the eyelids with sliced spheres (one for the upper, and one for the slower eyelid). The problem is that the TCB controllers for the sphere's rotation are a little confusing... and generate movements that don't match reality.

I need some advices about this, how to animate the eyelids good. Please help me!

Thanks guys!

Replace the TCB controller with an Euler XYZ controller. That way you can also tweak rotations as f-curves in trackview.
