I recently finished making the main character for my upcoming stop motion short film. I'm awful at remembering to record everything, so lots of steps are missing, but you get the picture...
Turn on subtitles for commentary!
Armature joints are from Kinetic Armatures ( @edupuertasfruns )
I used FormX UltraCal 30 for the arm/leg molds, and Smooth-On's Mold Max 15T for casting.
