Head Angles and Nose

[fleet estuary]

the head needs to turn more like this

[rancid steeple]

i think stylistically the last one fits best, but the shape and length of the nostrils needs to change when turning, cause right now it looks a bit like a flat object on the face

i think the whole head could move more too

Thank you so much!!

Gasp, sanvo

Ahem, yes! Okay thank you! I will try it again and play around a bit more!

It's looks like your nose move too much to the side compared to other face features, try to make it less? On the last one its moving almost alright, but there is not enough distortion

im currently making myself some sketched headangles with a head model in csp to guide myself a little more, hoping it will help me. Gonna update on that

like this basically

i love you all so much, look (i still need to do the mouth and some eye adjs but this the head anlges hehehe) (sorry about the bald jumpscare)

[median bolt]

okay how tf do i change the hair overlapping the face when i tilt it

[opal cedar]

what would you like it to look like?

[spring anchor]

Well, not in the face. Its due to the Z Parameter i think but idk hmm

[opal cedar]

do you have Z as an input on your X physics?

you could maybe try having a separate parameter for the hair tilt on Z so you have finer control over the hair there

[spring anchor]

Yes that!

[spring anchor]

I am absolutely not getting it .-. and im struggling so hard to visualize how to cut the horns into layers

maybe i can get a shadow in there to help make it look 3d

found this to maybe help me

[opal cedar]

you probably don't want to do all the horn movement on a single deformer

if anything, i would use the deformer as a very basic guide and then either key the mesh directly or make smaller deofmers around every individual piece for the finder movement

[spring anchor]

OOOooooo

this is actually insanely helpful thank you so much

[opal cedar]

np :)

[spring anchor]

DAMN GUYS LOOKS

[opal cedar]

looking good!

[spring anchor]

so, im trying to do the arms, but, this just looks like 2 floppy objects, flipping one arm makes it look weird and whimsical, im unsure what to do haha. there arent many tutorials for male arm rigs tbh

[spring anchor]

noone?

[opal cedar]

maybe just make the arm move less? you might also want to mess with your pendulum to be less wiggly if thats bothering you

also id recommend you make a new post if you have another issue because nobody will see it if you post in an old chat unless they already sent a message in it before
