Smile

Discovered today that one should never build poses into a 3D model and then rescale the model.

I built a head this week, and in preparation for building a body to go with it, rescaled it down to real-world proportions. When I tried the "smile" pose that I'd already created, it translated the control points at the head's original scale.

This was the horrifying result.

But if I ever need to do any "Hellraiser" style effects, at least I now know what to do.

At least that didn't happen when you had your wisdom teeth extracted!

Oh, but it felt like it did! Especially on the way home after that particular follow-up visit... you know the one I mean.
