My first piece of lipsync animation in a long long time. So many rookie mistakes were made while shaking off the rust, but I think growth is happening. Here's to finishing things! #animation #characteranimation #maya #lipsync

@Cartoonographer What's important is that you saw it through

Some peeps from the studio I work at made a sweet awesome board game called Moonrakers check out the Kickstarter, it's already exceeded the goal but very much worth a look! https://t.co/Q1SeIKaKRE

@agm1984 Also if you would like to make characters for animation, edge loop topology is really important (apologies if you know this already), but it's worth looking into. There isn't a particular tutorial that sticks out for me, but I'd recommend Blender Guru for sure. Hope it helps!

Absolute worst ever ever ever walk cycle, but also my first piece of blender animation! #blender #animation #characteranimation #missedthis

[Stephen van Wyk @vanimatron]

@agm1984 I think Blender Guru is probably the best free set of tutorials so far, they are pretty in depth and can be lengthily though. There are fun tidbits on Blender Nation it seems. I mostly just take snippets from all over depending on whatever the problem is.

[Stephen van Wyk @vanimatron]

Mad impressed with Blender! Still some stuff I need to get used to, but it's pretty awesome.

[Stephen van Wyk @vanimatron]

@tay_blay Aw thanks! I was contemplating asking you for advice/feedback but I know how swamped you are 😬

[Stephen van Wyk @vanimatron]

Fun simplistic character I’ve been messing with while picking up some blender skills. Animation to come soonish (hopefully). #character, #animation, #illustration, #3d, #blender

[Stephen van Wyk @vanimatron]

Don’t draw fractionally as much as I should, mainly because I can’t stand that sucking phase most of us have to go through 😝 - https://t.co/UtcSkX3X6J
