Crease Problem

[tcrmnk (Yukari)]

Hello everyone! I posted a question earlier this year, and I’m still trying to find a solution. Any ideas?

Rigging a mouth with blend from shape?

Hello, today I have a question regarding the “Blend from Shape” command. I am trying to rig a mouth that can appear on either side of the character’s face, but when ever the mouth is closed on one side, you can still see the crease where it was, and I would like to remedy this.

You can…

1. stretch the whole mouth around the face using shapekeys or a rig

2. Swap between two different heads

3. Mirror the head

Hmmm… Could you explain number one?

Model the face with the mouth in the middle, then create a shapekey called MouthL and stretch the mouth the the lewft side of the face in that keyframe. Then do the same for MouthR.
