All the strings attached

 Puppets are...so much more complicated than I thought. Like. I knew they were on pegs and you have to manually move them, but wow. Makes me have so much more respect for the animators who work with that style, like Archer. Now when I watch that show I see it totally different and I have to tip my hat. As the show keeps going, around season 5, the animation gets much smoother and it's just...wow! The Node View is like a spiderweb and if you don't know what you're doing then you are SCREWED. But it was still really fun. I made a cute little robot and had him fly on screen, wiggle his arms and head then fly off screen. I wanted him to peek his head on screen then fly in, but it was just difficult. Definitely gonna have to practice puppeting more. If anything, I think I'm pretty good at building puppets. Still fun!
