I like it. On the target blend shapes I think you might need more movement in the cheeks and eyes. With just the jaw moving I think you loose some relatability and make the character overly stiff.

So, you got clip?

Keep up the great work.

I think you're right about the cheeks and eyes blends, and yes I have a clip but I don't know where to upload it.

Thanks for responding user added image

Well it's only 1.66 mb, but I'm not sure about how big files you may upload here.

looks nice but when he shakes his head the movement is too glitchy... like it flashes.

Yes, I think I need to mess around with the hyper graph a bit and add some details and textures to him as well. I'll be back with an update later.

Cheers!
