Voilà... my first 3D character design and rig ever!
As I go along in my career, I intend to learn more about character (both 2D and 3D). So, even though this is a very simple rig, I intend for it to be the first of many more to come.
Check out my design and animation process down below!
Process
I started my process by designing in Photoshop...     ​​​​​​​

Started by trying different body proportions

Initial Character Design

Then started modeling in C4D...
Some color...
Lighting...
And finally, here's some rigging and animation
I was originally taught to use Rubber Hose Style rigging for my character. But after storyboarding and settling on my story, I realized Rubber Hose wasn't going to make my character what I wanted it to do. Instead, I went ahead and looked into IK rigging and weight managing.

And finally I worked on the title card...​​​​​​​
