Pectoralis major, or an approximation thereof. PlusMinusAverage and UnitConversion nodes do all the heavy lifting

Still much more to be done, and many more maya crashes, but making good and steady progress!

each bangle is made up of 2x control_01 and chain_spring_01 (1 segment). 2nd control_01 can be child of chain_spring_*_loc (the tip), or use the tip for IK reference. top level control_01 is Geometry constrained to a proxy mesh using same skin weights as the arm.

Just a lay in, mainly to impress on my #animdiversity mentee the importance of using reference as a spring board rather than a close guide.

Reference is collected, edited and reedited, timed and retimed, long before jumping in to Maya.

For the last two weeks my #animdiversity mentee and I worked on this short bouldering animation referencing Janja Garnbret. We took the time to really study the ref using primitives, making sure to build a solid foundation through blocking.

Hotkeys! I love hotkeys!

These hotkeys I use 97%+ of the time. I'll take hotkeys over tool windows anytime. Not that well designed tools are not good but for me they divert my attention from the viewport too frequently.

First blocking pass. Second lateral swing is more challenging than the first. Important to capture the effort put into each swing by throwing her legs to gain momentum, often overlooked is the arms also play an active role.

Ramping up into another 2 week anim along side #animdiversity mentee who chose this clip. A real challenging one. Starting off with ref and pose studies before going into blocking.

Another video showing how to study and use reference, and when to let it go. And also to reemphasise the importance of blocking and experimentation before moving to spline and polish.

Do your daily exercises animators, even if it's just half an hour.
