hello, i’ve done this model.
i’m planing on setting up a rig for him, nothing fancy, then make him talk.
then…
we will conquer the world mwoahahahahahahahaha cough
You want to do something really scary, find some old Richard Nixon speeches, and lip sych to them. The resemblance is uncanny. Must be the nose…
Cheers, that’s a great idea. I’ve found some phone reccordings from the watergate. They’re hilarious.
Ok, I rigged my man up (his name is now Richard Purple). His feet are not properly done but he is gonna be sitting down through the whole thing, so it’s cool.

and i did a little insect guy out of an older model i had, which i still have to do a rig for.


I also recorded a little tune with the keyboard to play with the animation.
Now, do insects always have wings? I really wonder.
Not really. Ants for example don’t have wings at least not all of em. There are also some bugs which do not have wings.
well, i went for no wings.

I rigged the Bug. Now i gonna try to do some mouth shapes with the shape keys, for the lipsynch.
Tell me what you think of it so far!
Methinks this’ll be hilarious when it’s finished :P.
I can almost hear the discussion goin on between the two…
ok, the mouth shapes took me ages to do, but here we go, the first few seconds of richard speaking:
i need to improve his hands and teach him how to blink, but otherwise: critics welcome!
