Low Poly People (part 4). How to use a reduced M3 (michael 3) skeleton and how to animate via BVH files. More info and tutorials like http://www.facebook.com/scififunk

In this episode I show the reduced figure imported again into Carrara and we look at the quality of the model, the shading domains, and how to attach a skeleton.

Now we import an aniblock (that could easily come from a BVH file).

Next we look at some of the issues that will arise if you model for skeletons. Particularly the legs can be a problem.

Finally without UV maps you'll be limited to colours (not texture files) with your shaders. although you might get lucky I guess at a texture file would still look ok (box mapping).

However for far away shots these figures look fine as colours and contours only as I will show in a forthcoming tutorial.
