I accidentally left the “huggy/kissy reunited” tag. Pls ignore.. heh

Here is my Lily Lovebraids run cycle for Chapter 5! It was fun helping develop her doll like movements. We wanted to keep her relatively stiff which was a fun challenge. #PoppyPlaytime

I love my job 🔥

@sam197071172846 Yeah it’s just me and my husband lol i just used it as reference to get some of the acting moments and body mechanics across 😅

Behind the Scenes of my animation where Huggy and Kissy reunite in Poppy Playtime Chapter 5. You can kind of see my process and thinking by watching the first blocking pass. Really like where we ended with this sequence! #poppyplaytime #poppyplaytimechapter5 #huggywuggy

@PLaYTimePlaye @MLSpence3D Yeah that is me and my husband xD

@mailgull It is very painful. They basically live in agony. It is a punishment.

Early version of #chumchompkins where we were exploring the possibility that he has been turned wrongside out, too. Thankfully our guy was spared!!

@districtxx1 I do both at Mob 😁

Here is part of the exploration process of finding this sweetie’s personality 🥰 #chumchompkins #PoppyPlaytimeChapter5

@bry51403 The idea was always to have the mouth in his belly! But we did try a few options before deciding we wanted the mouth belly 100% ☺️

@prototipodoruim That’s why he ended up in the game! 🫡 Character designs are always a process. I ended with what we see in the game. This was an early explorative version.

Here is a jumpscare I animated for The Prototype that wasn't able to make it in the final version of Chapter 5.

I want everyone to know #chumchompkins has wrinkly legs under all that fur !!!!

[Taylor Gessler Lanning @TaylorGessler]

Here is my final turn around for Chum Chompkins! My favorite part was designing his wrinkly legs. I imagine his legs being kind of long but the lack of “stuffing” makes them bunch up.
