This was just a quick throw-together for a contest. This little guy will be the star of a music video I'm currently working on. I'm the master of recycling characters!

Thanks everyone- glad you liked it!
The mouth setup was a bit tricky. His head is actually made up of two fills- one above the mouth and one below (the edges of his mouth have invisible lines that extend to the side of his head on each side). The buck teeth are below the upper head fill, and in front of the lower head fill. All lipsync is done with Heyvern's DAT to actions script, and all shapes for the head are on the same layer. This is actually a good example as to why I like action based lipsync opposed to using switch layers.Dr. Nick wrote:What a great voice over. Luv the buck teeth on the lip articulation ~~ how'd you do it?

a minor critique
just a little observation from an amateur --
The body of your character was totally frozen during
the cartoon, and I am just wondering if a few little
gestures wouldn't have made his body a little
more expressive
