Mystic Meg

I just finished a major hurdle in the Rube Goldberg project. I’ve been modelling a woman’s head that is loosely based on Mystic Meg: the National Lottery psychic in the late nineties whose predictions about new winners always turned out to be wrong. This Mystic Meg is a silent wooden puppet head with eyes and eyelids that can move. She’s ready for texturing, and I just finished giving her eyes a rig, which you can see in action here:

I’m very happy with how her face turned out, and I’m very excited to start giving her colours and incorporating her into the rest of the scenery!

Rube Goldberg

This is a work in progress I am currently busy with. It is going to be an explanatory animation using an animated Rube Goldberg machine.

Part of the Rube Goldberg setup.

Two animated hands that will be used within the machine itself. Rig was made by me, the animation itself is a test to see if the rig is functioning properly.
