Rig Testing
Small Range of motion tests,
Focusing on the shoulders, arms, chest and back in particular
Seeing how things feel when im doing rushed experiments with animating and get a feel of how well the mechanics could work.

The animations are not pretty, they are just quick tests :)

Rough Test to mix 3D with 2D Background

@cupid.day was kind enough to do a background so I can test how far I can see if I want to invest in animations work that would look like this.

Pose was just done in 5mins as a rough idea with camera, then we went from there to focus on the test

WIP Face Posing Base Expressions

Rough posing, Just showing some of the process and how I approach things just back and Forth

Even though it hasnt shown,I keep in mind of keeping the mechanics in, such as The frontalis muscles moving, and then also trying to keep some appeal but focusing on angles

Making neutral face poses is key.
They are genuinely the starting stone to any face posing work and figuring out who your character is

Even if the changes are subtle, making a neutral face is great to start your work from for face anim

Quick Pass after the rough pass, making certain parts Asymmetrical while keeping mechanics realistic

I don't like breaking things to look good,
I'm more of someone who believes we can make things look good without breaking too much in 3D.

Good enough pass to work on other face expressions now.

Face posing is hard to begin.
Because its a constant back and forth of multiple things:
"How do I want the neutral to be"
"Can the rig allow certain things"

And you can see that with the amount of trial error I have with the eyebrows till i got somewhere I was somewhat happy a rough first pass

Neutral Face idea WIP

First thing I do when getting models is changing the face pose to a "on-model" neutral pose that feels right to me in places.

I enjoyed @wrendog.bsky.social Art of Marzi with their hair covering their eye so I wanted that more in a neutral position

Exploring Base Face expressions of universal expressions
While the intensity of them are low, I do this to give myself a guide of how I want the face to look at certain points and to gain a rough understanding of how the face would move for that character.

Rough paintovers im working on to explore things.
Using CSP paint brushes and liquify currently to edit from the original render.
Will be redoing how I want to keep the face on the more sad(ish) as i was doing notes in my notebook on how to keep some parts of the lips still use similar shapes

Currently been given permission to use this model, but before I do anything, I tend to look at the persons art of that character and make notes of things,I always start by finding a rough neutral by using liquify and draw over notes in CSP for how I want things, currently exploring decisions to make

Just me rambling about using landmarks to track spacing to camera so that we can use those to make things feel less confusing by making sure the spacing allows the user to read the idea going on even in a fast transition like the one im doing.

More WIP.
Still need to add more poses onto the arms coming up, but just wanted to block in the next section start so i can flow the arms into the idea better.
But at the moment still in a very rough blocking stage.
No timing adjustments yet, just going through poses in my head before refining them
