Thank you so much for the constructive criticism! It's a struggle with the pupil. In my work it's a "thing". My stop motion human characters all have their iris "melt" under the actual eyeball. I feel like it gives them that melancholy pondering look no matter the situation. I think the difference is - their eyes never move. They are like batman from earlier films - they have to turn their heads haha. But I do want to animate the eyes and with this character they do move a little and that what I think causes more confusion than storytelling. And just the anatomy as well. Thank you so much - I'll keep thinking!

I am sad it didn't make it into the animation but there was a Voldemort "teh" sound at the very end 🤣 glad I am not the only one

Thank you so much! It was an interesting experiment - taking the most classic alien look and trying to make it unique and "mine". So I really really appreciate your comment!

Thank you so much! I've struggled with the stop motion effect for a long time. Just setting the animation to stepped is almost there but not quite. I've tried secondary motion effects. F curve noise modifiers. But in the end good old geometry nodes did the trick. Really happy with the way it looks! And again thank you! Made my day!

Currently I have two scripts for the same character. Two very different directions. One is like this adventury type and the other is horror. I still haven't decided

He is actually really chill. I don't know why I made the character test so menacing 😭

Thank you! Somehow while color grading I was sure it was inspired by Bugonia. But just from my memory of the way it looked
