The character is now rigged and skinned. A shirt was added for appeal the clothes do have a control so he can switch to no shirt or if I wanted he could switch to different clothes like a doll. The clothes show he is an anthropomorphic creature while also adding more personality he is more civilized a part from not having trousers. This is how Walt Disney designed his characters with ever a shirt shoes shorts or a mixture. This was also to create a classic golden era cartoon style like Warner Bros looney toons, mainly Wile Coyote.
Since intentionally he was going to be inspired by Aardman his facial expressions and face are inspired by Gromit
Here is an image of the face controls using blend shapes.
The controls that were added to the ears and tail have been removed to allow an easier and simpler set up for keying.
Since the character is fully rigged skinned and can show some simple facial expressions. Here are some different silhouette poses of different facial emotions and body language.
Angry
sad
Shock or Surprise
When animating the character reference will be used from influences such as Mr Bean, Gromit, Jim Carrey. This will allow to create an excitable and curious deer.
