My approach on a 2D face rig. A Thread.🧵 (╹ڡ╹ ) #art #techart #blender3d #indiedev

The main concept is that I think of the facial features as 'stickers' that I place on the main body texture's face. I use multiple UV channels and textures to simplify the process. I think of these textures as 'sticker sheets', and use bone drivers to select the 'sticker' I want.

The face is divided into the following parts: eyebrows, eyes, pupils and mouth. The textures are mainly blended using their alpha channels.

Are the elements you're moving in this anim part of some 3d UI of the software or are they polygons you created as a way to "remotely" control the bones (or however this is achieved, I don't know this in-depth)?

waitaSECOND you can make custom bone shapes!?
