I CAN MOVE!!!! WOOOOOOO!! FINALLY!!!

It has taken a while to get this done, but I see the light in the end of the tunnel! The model isn't 100% done yet, but I can kinda use it, so it's good enough to show I think?? I still have some textures I want to fix, some blendshapes to fix, and some weightpaint issues I gotta fix. I also really want to add some fun extra expressions I can use, like blush, and cry, maybe animate them?? Never done that before, so I'm curious! There are also some shader things, like outlines, and making eyebrows visible through bangs that I also want to add, so yeah.. still a few things on my list, but WE'RE ALMOST THERE!!!

I put together this video to just show off the model in action, this is me in Warudo using iFacialMocap for the face, and SlimeVR for the body! I've been listening to a lot of coltemonikha and capsule lately, so that's the music playing in the back lol. The tracking on the face is so much more expressive than before! The body works ok, but I don't have all the trackers needed for best tracking. I had to put my VR headset on top of my head to use as a tracker, which is painful in the long run :( I'm also missing elbow trackers, so the arms rotate very weirdly.. Hopefully I can save up to get some more trackers, I'm overall very happy with the SlimeVR trackers!

I can't wait to use this model in cover videos and such, I hope I can find creative new ways to make 3D content!! I also really wanna make more simple meme stuff, so now that I have a pretty strong new vessel for lipsyncing.. I might use it for that.. I'm also creating the reveal video, which will be hopefully very cool, but I gotta do some research on how to render specific things in blender. I think you will like it though!!!

That's it for this time, hope you like my first moves!!!!!!
COOL HUG FROM ME, ICEBELL!!!! WOO!!!
