I have to admit, the fact that my original orca model wasn’t ever going to be able to open its mouth, bothered me A LOT. So, despite having many many MANY more pressing things to do to get ready for my departure to Norway on Friday, I decided it was a fabulous idea to completely remodel it – complete with mouth parts – and start to rig it. I even had a go at making it look like its underwater (which turned out really nicely, actually). I will need to do some more research about how whales actually move (I used a modified shark “skeleton” to rig the model), but it’s a decent first go. At least the things I want to do now seem somewhat possible!
