23/01/2015 - Lots of reading and toying around


It has become apparent that there have been a number of issues with the mesh as it is and is causing some heartache as I am basically trying to mend a broken bicycle wheel with glue and sticks.  It just is not working.
With that being said and the initial setback of yesterday I am starting again.  I have learnt a few tricks that will help getting back up to speed and I am sure that I can same some time in the modelling process and where possible to reuse some of the items I already have but I am not sure if this will be possible.
So to help me with this I am looking to create two identical models that are linked together.  This means that I can use one for all the animating, rotating squishing etc and the second one will remain untouched but linked so that I can edit this one and the animated one changes also.  This is a trick that i have found recently that works very well for the eyes.  As I am typing this I am not sure if it will work for the full mesh but it would work for smaller things like eyes etc.  But we will have to see...
