This animation is all handkeyed and bone-driven, so it would work in a game engine Honestly the strap on the mask was harder to animate than the hair lol

Hair animation practice

Byte Breakers zoomies Fun fact: animating locomotion still makes me nervous

I had to work quickly for Byte Breakers, so there wasn't time to explore ideas much. Luna was one of the easier characters for me since she's bouncy and childish I did most of the animations for the test last year, about 900 seconds of animation over 10 months

Luna basic locomotion from Byte Breakers Luna uniquely has 5 different jump animations to express her chaotic personality and make her cuter I was thinking what to do for her idle and started tilting my head back and forth, and I thought it worked well so I also tilted her head

Aimi basic locomotion from Byte Breakers Her jump was designed to look especially good when sprinting into a jump, like a cat pouncing She was my favorite character to animate! I did most of the animation here, but the basic upright running was modified a bit by a coworker

Studying

Chan chan ai chiki chiki ban ban! 💃 Was a fun afternoon project

My simple Maya viewport cel shading tool is released! It automatically finds materials to switch to cel shaded versions, and is easy to adjust There is also a guide included along with tips on how to use it Link below

Maya viewport cel shading tool is almost complete It automatically finds existing materials and then you can apply the shader. It's easily adjustable and you can have different settings for different parts Character model from WARPSTAR warpstar.booth.pm/items/5405703

2024 favorite projects! This year I spent a lot of time getting better at animating cloth and also started to improve my camera animation too Happy New Year! 🎈

I made a simple shader for Maya with dynamic shadows and lighting, it looked so good I've spent the last three days admiring it
