I highly recommend the books Character Animation Vol 1 and 2 for anyone considering Character animation. They really got me over the Hump when is comes to modeling a head for animation. I am still working on getting my armature setups highly animatable. Look for more advanced animations coming soon.
I look forward to the interaction of this forum group.
Hi mthoenes,
I’ve seen this animation before. It’s nice. I can tell by the look of her face that she’s the “happy” kind of girl - always smiling.
The animation itself is a bit “floaty” but I suppose that’s because she’s sleepy 
A secondary motion in the hair would be nice too.

Lyubomir,
Absolutely right about the secondary motion. I have been trying to decide whether to use armatures, RVK’s or a Lattice to do it. What would you recommend. About her beeing sleepy, I know what you mean. I am working on an expression series for her. Happy, Sad, surprised, curious, etc… I need to mess with her eyes as well, I am thinking about replacing her eyes with those pixar eyes you did your tutorial about…Nice!
BlendOn!

Hi – tried to view your animation,
but my player didn’t like it.
What codec did you use?

Posted a new version in Cinepack. It is a bit longer, includes some walk cycle stuff. I need to get these animations to be streaming so you do not have to download the whole thing to see it. Also got a tutorial about cartoon eyes posted.
