Elly Flash Build

Description

The lovely Elhaym Van Houten from the best game of all time!
Xenogears!!!

Just taking a brief style break from my Chrono Trigger art to make a build of a pre-designed character!

Some people have requested exploded views of my Flash builds, and as I was simply making a build of some official art, and not my own design, I thought I'd let you guys see.

This is a more complex build than most I have been doing with the CT characters, and I can tell it will be hell to redraw many of those parts for animation!!! Still, many of the builds I've made in Harmony are much more complicated with cutters/masks built right into the character and self trace outlines etc. She does have some blinks and mouths I added.

I tend to work without outlines in Flash, otherwise lining up the parts while moving becomes hard for the animators!!!

The basic process for making a build involves drawing right over the design you are given, but figuring out where pivot points need to be, and how everything will connect for the animators.

How do you animate such characters? Do you use the traditional method of having symbols within symbols, or do you use the IK bones added into CS4?
