Gonna be some awesome content coming to this channel! Please check it out and share it around 🙏
@NikosStudios and I are starting a little video series talking about viewmodel animation. What it is, some of our favorite pieces, tutorials, deep dives, and maybe some talks with veteran animators!
Nik did the lovely voice over here, (possibly a kiwi Bob Ross animator???)

Fantastic example!
It might be tempting to spin from the hip controller, but for a physically accurate spin the body would rotate around its center of gravity (COG) - which for someone curled up actually places it outside the body and roughly in the center of the curled 'ball'
The Viewmodel Vault Takedown challenge is finished! There were some craazy animations in this one 👀

Alrighty folks,
I have unfortunately been recently laid off. In light of this, I am now currently searching for new opportunities in the gameplay animation space. Please reach out if you or someone you know is looking for 3d animators!
