Been polishing up the final two scenes. The juicy pull out and the final dialogue thing. The junk I manually animated, and it took a lot of fondling- I mean fiddling- (ha) with the balls to get it okay looking.

I've been trying to get more hyped about the glamor hole thing, but it's been a bit difficult because it's a lot more of the same. I was also thinking it'd be more tedious getting things a bit more polished but it wasn't as bad as I thought it wou...

Finished the retopology and most of the rig (the texturing/material needs some more finesse though!).

Added soft bodies to the triceratops (his butt, thighs, calf and triceps). This shot has so much going on, like there's cloth moving, some jiggle, fluid, it's a good opener I think!
I also began going through the 3rd scene (where he's like "...
