Okay, actual footage. Tons more anims for Ant Mech too. A Stage Entry, 2 types of jumps, landings, a walk cycle, and other unimplemented stuff like dashing, running, air attacks, etc. Also reimplemented the Blender shaders and threw together a test environment. CC @mechanicalblue.bsky.social

Okay, going for more of a "beat em up" styled animation set. Whipped up an Idle animation and a basic attack chain. I think the most interesting attack is the final strike, where the gun gets flipped ( #b3d #blender3d )

As a sneak preview, here's a test animation I did earlier while I was stress testing the rig a bit. If you look real close you can even see the finger pulling the trigger for a frame or two! (CC @mechanicalblue.bsky.social LOOK IT MOVES!)

More progress. Our ant soldier buddy is more or less fully modeled out with hands and a head and everything. Next up, a gun, then decals, then a nice rig And then I can ✨animate✨, which is my favorite part! Still just matcaps and vertex color shading so far
