Blends are fun i just finished a lip sync tut this week had a blast making the character say Simplymaya.com rocks.

k- I agree, I am very new to the animation part. but I sure am having fun with it :-)

also I am changing what the character is... I couldn't stomach looking at him anymore.

he is now a meatball, all I have to do is shift his color to be more red :-) less offensive and the wife will let me back into the house this way. heh heh

Kurt I actually have a question about setting keys. I get an unwanted motion when I set 3 or more keys. it ends up over shooting the second keyed mark and then slides back into it. I tried clamping the keys but am having no luck :-( I also tried every other key option with out any luck, whats the trick?
------------------
edited the character- now he is hitman :-)
