Slowly Working My Way Back into Movie Mode!

Hey guys!

The holidays have come and gone and as you can tell by my lack of updates that I'm easing my way back into working on the movie.

Well, that is true. I haven't exactly been starting the new year running. The truth is that I'm pretty tired still and I am enjoying the time away from the movie for the time being. I really worked hard last year and it's been nice giving my brain a break for a while.

Still, I haven't exactly been doing nothing either. These last couple weeks I've been working on resolving the problem I've been having with rigging the Thomas model. I just can't seem to find the trick to making his shorts follow his bending legs and I must say it has been quite frustrating. Especially since I know the answer is staring me in the face and I just can't see it.

So, just as I did with T-Boom, I've decided to put Thomas on hold and try rigging a character that isn't wearing a costume...Max! I just started messing around with that this week so I'm really hoping to have a fully rigged Max by this time next week.

I'll let you know how that goes!
