So, I have set up the saddle!
(The strip on the front should not be there, but it is late, and I cant be fucked spending another 20 mins to render this on my work PC.)
I have also done work on the saddles rig, it was not a hard as I thought it was going to be, still needs work, but the rig will do some of the heaving lifting for me when its done.
After that, I'll work more on the run cycle, even though I'm already pretty happy with it, and I can also animate the poor gnoll bouncing and hanging on for dear life.
I have set up a few different views, I will also want to make a bunch of shape keys for the gnoll, so I can make him show emotions, like worry and pleasure. Also pain....
I'll get back to work when I wake up tomorrow.
Thanks for your support!
