Animation Time! - Reptile Eye Rig


Today's Inspiration:

Street Man - Animation Time!

Today's Animation Time features the Street Man Rig.
Street man crouches down and anticipates the jump. Jumps up and over then slams down with overlap and drag in the arms and chest. Lands with a bit of recoil in the hips that reverberates through the body.
