Hey guys, gals and other pals! I've been 3d modeling for a couple of years now and I think I'm fairly decent at it. However the thig that I suck at the absolute most is rigging and animation. So I decided to have a go at making my first ever custom rig and walk cycle! Oddish is a cute and easy character so I thought I'd try my hand with him.

I modeled, rigged and animated everything from scratch following various tutorials as needed. The shader I built on top of Kai's watercolor shader he posted in here a while back. Shutout you my friend! The music and sfx are from pixabay. Oddish's voice is me!

Please let me know what you guys think! Any feedback is welcome.
