Animation Time! - Cyclops Boy Rig


Today's Inspiration:
I don’t believe in ‘talent’ in art, just the desire to practice. If you practice every day, you’ll get better every day...the more you practice, the better you get and the more comfortable you get with your own artistic voice.

Chubby - Animation Time!

Today's Animation Time features the Chubby Rig.
He crouches down, and anticipates the jump. Leaps up (barely), throwing hands up with the feet and belly dragging. Lands with drag in the head and the arms and recoil in the belly.
