Comic OC Belle and Friends Rigs Test

[Snim 62]

This is a rough "Sketch" of Belle, a character I'm developing for my minecraft comic. I wanted to give her cute pigtails, and while I am pleased with the first results I'm still not sure if I like them all that well.

Her face will be removed and replaced with a more refined set of "Masks" to give her16X16 pixel based expressions. So forgive me if it looks rather derpy here.

Here she is with a snowman I was using to test arm rigging on. It took me over two hours to find the check box that changes a block from the lower part of the arm to the upper part. I felt very special that day. >_>

That's also my regular, non edited Minecraft self for comparison to what looks like a "Normal" skin in the world.

I would absolutely love to hear any ideas or suggestions you may have to make a better Rig for Belle. Please keep in mind she's a young character of about 13 to 14 ears old, so nothing to "Adult" for her, other than that please let me know if you have any thoughts!

The pigtails are admittedly rough, but they are an important part of the character design. Here is some art I have drawn of her for reference to see what I mean:

My "Ring in the new year" with Belle art because I'm not really that creative ^_~ http://fav.me/d9mvgcm

I would love help. I have a number of ideas, but I'm still so new at this that I would really appreciate some one showing me some of the ropes.

I looked over some of your rigs and I like your style.

Thank you much! I'll add you on skype!
