Apologies to all my followers, my account got taken over by a crypto scammer but hopefully that's all taken care of now.

@lth_rg The bones here just serve as controllers, not deformation. If you want to add other kinds of lip keys like snarling then yes, you should add bones to control it unless you just want to manually control it from the shape key panel for some reason

This isn't a very detailed tutorial, but for those of you who wanted to know the process here's a quick-ish overview https://t.co/eauVYWQPcM

@lth_rg Not at all, eyes/eyebrows are completely irrelevant to all this and if you have a mouth shapekey that works fine with all the other mouth shapekeys then there's absolutely no point in doing anything else to it

My dear friend https://t.co/5yRw5JvoLr gave me an advice - to post my animations as a video here, so the watchers could see a better quality and to stop at any frame they want.

Anyway, if twitter dies you can find me at https://t.co/wjTyucBve2

Everyone was like "we lost tumblr a billion dollars, if we work together we can lose twitter even more!" and then Elon goes and destroys it all himself. He never lets us have any fun.

They listened to the overwhelming feedback and have opted all deviations out of AI datasets by default. That’s a pretty big win!

[RJ Palmer 🔜 Gen Con AS-90 @arvalis]

The form I linked above is actually just to remove your username/aliases from being used in prompts. To actually remove your artwork from being eligible for this, you need to go to edit each individual deviation and click this tiny box. I have 17 years of deviations on there...

Hey DeviantArt, you need a link to a comment from my social media mentioning my DA account? Well here it is. https://t.co/K9xlG4IkWk

[RJ Palmer 🔜 Gen Con AS-90 @arvalis]

I am beyond frustrated with them and the timing of this. If you would like to opt-out, the form is here https://t.co/UTEcI2dFMZ

Why is there a sudden influx of NFT accounts trying to follow me. Go away.

Having a windfall of bad news and financial strain that I am very much unprepared for, including a $3500 medical bill for an animal bite, my bike stolen, + car died.
If you have some extra dollars and enjoy my art now is a great time to buy a print, book, or support on Patreon.
