In this project I developed and implemented a Python script that helped me build the eyelids and lips rig.

I had the oportunity to play around with some ideas I wanted to try out, for example, a cape with a hand grabbing option and a “Bat-belt” driven by a nurbsSurface, to mention some.

For the body, by using ribbons with deformers on arms and legs, I achieved a sober toony look.

Lastly, for the face I went for a sober look with a combination of blendshape and joint based rig.

I created the head lid controls with a combination of remap nodes, this in addition to the automation on the staples achieved a natural and seamless motion.
