Hi there- here is a video of a character I have been working on-
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=-JyJJgT_UW4
Please click watch in HD on the bottom right of the video- it looks so much better!
I'm still new at this- and in the background you can see the scanned layer of which I traced over.
This i spurely a test to see if it could be uploaded to youtube- and I did it!
I used Papagayo and also used the "hasta" test audio... BUT I drew out my own set of Phenomes (?sp) to suit my charcater better.
Overall I'm happy with the character however it does need more work- the colours look wrong so I'm gonna have to go back and work out whats going on there... Also the lines aren't showing too well...
Can anyone else suggest any more improvements?

Hello Dream
One of the reasons I do not post on youtube is that you just cannot scrub those, which is a drag for previewing.
First thing I see is the register pivot of the right shoulder, it is off, makes the arm pivot as if from the top right instead of the right, more centered piviot of a shoulder.
He definatlly needs better shoes, more detailed ones and darker color, maybe dark brown.
I suggest tad bigger hands, makes them more interesting and easier to animate, at least to my taste.
Other then that I think it is pretty good!

Hi GCharb- thanks for the sugestions- I agree his hands are too small but thats an easy issue to sort out and the feet- need a slight adjustment too- although I don't want too much detail on his shoes.
Also I agree about the joint- it does need to be aligned better.
One thing I need to get to grips with ( a basic issue) is to make the chacrter lines stand out better.
