Ok, well, after tweaking, tweaking, and more tweaking, George's clothes still need more tweaking. ;-) But, they're working. Too flimsy for final use, but he doesn't pop out of them (so far).I also rebuilt the walk cycle animation. Since this is the first walk cycle that I made without scaling him afterwards (bad idea :-P), this is the first one I'm really happy with.Since the new cloth system

George has some expression...

And they're mostly angry ones... ;-)Alrighty, George is finally givin' me more faces than just that sloppy, silly grin. Now, he's givin' me angry looks! Oh well, when I get more mouth controls in, I should be able to make him happier then ever!Hair looks REALLY cool! Gotta love the programmers behind Blender.Still working some bugs out with the eye control, but I imagine those will fall into

Yep, George is taking his first steps! Well, they're still rather clumsy, but they're steps. His clothing is have a few malfunctions, we'll have to talk to wardrobe about that.Enjoy!

So... I wrote the script to call for George to crawl from his bed into his chair, in which he will zoom around in. Today, I worked on two things. First, I rigged the chair's wheels. "Bones in the wheels?!", you ask? Yes, bones in the wheels. :-P The beauty of my system is that I just move the chair around, and the wheels basically move like real wheels.Well, that sounds easy, what else have I
