the candy trinity

Mancandy 1.0 , Mancandy 2.0 and Mancandy 2.1

I suppose I should explain. 1.0 is the old dude I originally posted on the elephants dream website. Should work fine on blender 2.45, but check and report. Mancandy 2.0 is my current “blessed” version, works on blender 2.45. 2.1 is an interim release, made to remain compatible with blender SVN (for those who like the bleeding edge)

Have fun kiddies.

EDIT: I just re-uploaded the 2.0 file with the armature visible (and selectable) by default. As the comment indicates, hide it if you intend to use mancandy as a library file and link the group, otherwise, leave it visible.

Sorry for the confusion.

wormJust found out from Blender Nation today. I did this cartoon worm tutorial for 3D World issue 91, which was out a while ago. Now they’ve published the pdf and files online as a free download. The rigging technique is an adaptation of some I had used for an animation on the mancandy FAQ- there’s a bit more about it in there too, though used for a different subject (than a worm). Some of you already know, but don’t talk about it! it was supposed to be a surprise :)
