First animation test of the lips... no eyes or head movement just the words... Still tweaking it up will look much better once i get the head and eyes going.

That's really good, the R sound looks a bit odd though I cannot put my finger on why. It's great to see him talking.

Hey Kurt, I know you're already animating and all, but i missed this thread earlier, and reading through it i had to agree with luistlf, that the skin colour just looked wrong, and instead of trying to explain it, i decided just to play around in photoshop, and this is what i came up with. I think this looks alot more natural, as always, this is just the way i see it.

If you wanted to try just adjusting the current colourmap a bit, all i did was a "Hue saturation" with a hue shift of about +15 and a saturation shift of +5.
