Slowly advancing

My H.P. Lovecraft animation project is slowly advancing into a stage I can start to think about animating now. I've decided to make and rig one character at a time and the sets and lighting decisions are pretty much made. learning to use Bodypaint for more advanced textures and I'm about to use Cactus Dan's C4D rigging plugins as the principle solution for the first time. Here is the old musician character with some simple facial expressions. The scar on his head (and another one) are from photos I took of my dad's table saw accident. You never know what images will come in handy some day!
