Are there Illustrator or Photoshop Puppet Characters for use in Character Animator available for purchase/download? I do OK animating and 3D modelling, but I'm very bad with 2D drawings .... VERY bad!
My local friends are all tied up with projects for a few months.

Thanks for any help or referrals!

I'm off to bed now, its almost 2am here, but Im happy to give you advice on how to build it in layers. I usually build my characters in flash but you could do it fine in Photoshop. You can get a lot more textures when in PS BUT in Flash, sorry, Animate, you can use auto tweens to help make layers, which are good for cycle layers if you use them.

Very nice mate! I did complete one today using Photoshop, and it looks OK. But I'm looking to building something unique.

So thanks for helping me out.

Until next time ......

I'm so willing to purchase puppet drawings if you'd accept. I am looking for a unique, nerdy, character with glasses who can point to a pie or line chart to explain data, etc. I'm anxious to talk to you about this when you have time.

Thanks!
