once more! Hello! My name is Sirrena Holmes and I am a 3D Character Rigger! I continue to love to learn new things and most of my time nowadays is spent working in Python :3 I hope you enjoy my work! 💗
I always try to repeat this! If you need to learn Maya for a job the student license works for Udemy courses! you can buy a $9 Udemy course and get the license for a year :3 its not the best and not like it was before but its something!!
I heard it's

Unfortunately, I have been affected by layoffs this year as well! >.< But that won't keep me down! If anyone has anything even some advice for my portfolio hit me up!!! <3 My recent links are in the thread!
Here's an early calisthenic for her facial expressions so we could test out her controls and make sure we could try out different ranges and emotions before we got into production. From tophilip on instagram 🌸

Remember to be chill like Bob Ross, and just keep on painting until your deformations look right. It just takes time. ;)

Anyone have any solid tutorials on 3D animation? I wanted to start fiddling around more with character animation to kinda know what features/controls might be helpful to animators. Plus I think it’ll be fun haha
Student talking to me: “boy I love rigging but I hate skinning! I would hate to be at a job skinning all day”

idk if you guys saw my other post but I finally got the body basically done! Had to ask for help with the clothing cause idk how to tackle haha but i think he looks pretty good! Went back through all the videos from class to get better shapes ;.;
Over the weekend and all of today, I have been following the Zurbrigg tutorials for the auto ball rigging course and it has been such a delight! I finished today and I learned so much :))) gotta get better at QT though so I used the base code he provided for us to use.
Nothing can prepare for the passing of a pet. Especially one that you have had since you were around 6.
Goodnight Cosmo, I hope you’re having a good time with the others 💗 smol 🧵
a HUGEEE thank you to
@tech_art_gent
for helping me with this! Finally revised the khajiit rig i did a few months ago! Model by
@foxinthegardn
!! Got her in Unreal running around :3
Hi rigging friends! I wanted to ask what’s your fav face setup? Going to be doing some personal R&D for a bit and would love to experiment around! I’m obsessing over animationBox rigs by Kippcase studios and want to do a niceeee facial rig later this/early next year
I have been thoroughly enjoying my anim class and anim as a whole ;.; even tho i don't have a lot of energy to dedicate to it each week. Here is my last lil piece! Playing with constraints to keep bunny stuck to the platforms
I don’t think I’ve ever asked this but animators, what is your fav foot roll setup? I’ve only ever done it a few times and wanted to know what is the favs out there and why
for clarity the project im doing is a limb autorigger that has twist joints, elbow pinning, stretch, soft ik, nudge, sliding and volume pres at one point i knew how it works but now i dont LOL
went through all the videos of facial rigging again and redid the shapes nicer but for some reason, I had to make this face lol a mix of handsome Squidward and Giga chad lolol
had to fix the shoulder pivot. it's amazing how much a short scooch down can make. Good news tho, my arm script works decently when trying to replace or redo parts of a rig! gotta finish and show you guys :D
Since the pandemic I’ve:
-decided to start learning rigging, learned (still learning) and got a new job in rigging
-gained weight
-basically became a hermit
Since the pandemic I've:
* came out as trans & started to transition
* moved 3 times & to a new state alone
* bought a house myself
* started a new job
* ended a 6 year relationship
* whistleblew on an abusive employer
* been diagnosed w/ ADHD inattentive
* & more... 😬
I took a break from scripting to work on this! She has many problems but I learned a ton! Going to get more serious with another model :3 Big thank you to
@kamilabianchi
for the wonderful tutorials!
Sorry for the delay in responses and absence overall online guys. About a little over a month ago we lost my grandma. It was pretty sudden so I still can't wrap my head around it. It's all been a lot lately but I am trying my best!
This! Once Autodesk changed their student license options it just made it even less accessible to newer artists. All the 3D programs cost a lot for someone in college or fresh out of college so it’s nice to have something free like Blender
No matter how you feel about Blender, one thing I love is that it produces a whole new world of artists who otherwise wouldn't have access to a 3D software
Heyo!!! I have been chipping away at this auto rigger for class! Been going v slow but I have been enjoying the process! I would love any crits on my code if you guys have time or if you just wanted to see it! :DD
I always try to repeat this! If you need to learn Maya for a job the student license works for Udemy courses! you can buy a $9 Udemy course and get the license for a year :3 its not the best and not like it was before but its something!!
I don't have my file with me so i cannot work on this shot I did for class currently but i'm really proud of it! I'll post an update later if twitter isn't dead lol
