updated test animations

I have added more to the test playblast below. I hoped to try and represent how Joseph might move and act.



I am currently weighting Joseph.... What a struggle. I am working through some lessons in the Maya 7 book to help me and am pleased to have read about the 'jiggle' weighting tool. After weighting Joseph PROPERLY i will add jiggle to his hair... fingers crossed!

Oh yea, i also have the flu, which is great. Currently sweating and shivering while trying to work. I'm pilled up though, thanks to my doctor so all is cool... Too Cool... sooo cold!

Animation test Playblast

After a long while without animating the time has finally come to practice again.

I'm using a downloaded character from the internet for now, until Joseph has been rigged and weighted.

Here is what Joseph may act like. Quick movements, jumpy and excited. Ignore facial expression! - havent worked out how to change that on this model yet.
